Look up fahren. They got a good rep -
i have only "needed" to replace a caliper once, on the superdookie right at around 245K miles, and that was only because the piston itself had disintegrated...the caliper was fine, i just got lazy and didnt want to rebuild it then on the duster, i switched from front drums to discs, so i needed calipers for that but other than those two instances, i have never, ever had a caliper fail none of wich has any bearing on what dodge, or whoever their foreign stepdaddy was at the time, decided to screw in brake pistons

im sure there are, but this is the first one i ever dealt with that couldnt just be ran back in even my old VW, which had an electric park brake (you push a button and a servo would "turn" the piston and apply pressure, when you let off the brake the piston would run the opposite way and release. with that design you could jump the servo terminals to any 12 volt DC source and run the piston in or out) i have never laid eyes on a brake piston that needed to be manually screwed in to replace pads

Just watched a video on it, that is absolutely retarded

So, the old trusty C clamp is no longer good enough?

2012 journey electrical problem FIXED

Happened to my old superdookie too, rear ground strap just rotted off and I lost all rear lights -
Both of those would cancel the remote start, just the way it's written into the computer Fill the tank, fix the CEL and you should be good to go

Power Steering Pump Replacement Procedure
diymirage replied to aReLBee's topic in Maintenance & D.Y.I.
Good luck I thought most tensioners had a 1/2 inch hole that allowed you to put a breaker bar on there? Sounds like someone figured out a way to make it harder then it needs to be- 9 replies

It is indeed a clear case of government overreach How much gas i burn is none of their concern, and what type of engines a car manufacturer wants to put in a vehicle is nobodies business but their own Not to mention i get penalized for it by having a vehicle in a higher weight category, and having to buy more gas, which of course means more taxes

I do feel like a lot of manufacturers are putting sub par engines in vehicles now Im not looking for a vehicle to change the earth's rotation when i drop the hammer, but i do expect to be able to take an onramp, hit passing gear and speed up enough to match the flow of traffic on the highway without redlining the engine A while ago i had a rental jeep with who knows what hamster for an engine in it, and it was so gutless it was downright dangerous to drive, like taking a moped out on the freeway

i got the 5.7 hemi in my truch, they really should only have put the 6.4 in it the 5.7 struggled at first to keep up, a better intake, throttle body, full length headers and a custom tune made it acceptable i will say, i have the 5.7 in my wifes grocery getter ('15 pursuit charger) and there it shines
-
Theres your problem, the 3.6 is barely adequate in the JC, it has no business being in a full size SUV If you are considering a durango, the hemi is the only acceptable engine option

So, I was able to turn on the performance pages The journey now thinks it's an SRT, but still no oil percentage indicator
-
I'm thinking it's about time to change the oil, and on all my other late model mopars I can flip through the "engine info" pages on the evic screen But for some reason, the journey doesn't have this Is there a setting in alfaOBD I can flip to turn this on?
-
I dont see the point of it Each of my cars serves a specific purpose a to me, it makes more sense to have a variety then more of the same
