great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

feel your pain :cold:

just changed my oil again this time i removed the engine cover instead of trying to do it thur the little hole. was much easier(just lift up on the back side and then the front it just pops off) i had asked the dodge service manager about how it came off and they said it didnt. oh well i had the last oil change done by the dodge dealership and man did they overtighten the oil filter cap which wouldnt come loose with the wrech it kept wanting to slip with the wrench had to use a big set of vice grips. got it off without damaging the rubber nut on it,i put in the new oil filter and o ring from dodge $7.16 plus tax and tightened back up like i have always done on older filters hand tightened as much as i could then 1/4 turn with wrench. then put in my syn oil. and then put the top cover back on. have to get a bigger oil catch pan as 5.5 quarts fills my pan to the top.. made a mess trying to lift and drain back into the used oil jug.. lol have 36k on it now and it doesnt lose a bit of oil between oil changes

pounds to U.S. 8000=$12,739.26 wow a little high think id report it stolen and get rid of it hope you find out more and it is alot less

what type do you all rec. was thinking of trying the bosch icon blades they cost about $24 for the drivers side and $19 for the pass. side the parts man said they were the best and last a long time. have never tried this new style. rain x makes a set also,, any ideas????

guess i was lucky my came already turned on from the factory...

hope you enjoy it , i have a white one but had a silver van before, wish mine was silver or gray easier to keep clean, doesnt show the road film or light dust as bad as white does.... i put on window vents that fit in the window channel have always used them instead of the ones that stick on and noticed more wind noise after installing them they were wearther-tech brands. not much noise but a little....

dodge comes with 3yr/36,0000 bumper to bumper warranty and also 5yr/100,000 powertrain warranty (which is engine and transmission )

well if you had read my post had to have a side cover replaced, so when the battery went bad we were heading that way anyway so yes i stopped by to get it replaced . wasnt sure if the local parts store would have the right one, which would have cost about $6.00 for 2 of them. only took them about 10 minutes to fix it for me.once they took it apart to find out what kind of battery was in it.....

sue go to retailmenot.com click on advance auto coupon codes get the code then go to advance auto web site order your pads throm-quite pads are real good and advance will give you 1 free set of pads when they wear down. and if you need rotors they have them also. total cost pads $58.99 rotors reg ones $52.99 or wagner brand $53.99 if you spend more than $150. you get $50. off or $20 off more than $50. i have used them for both rotors and pads for all my dodge vans and my daughters postal car. they have good parts. you order on line and pay on line then go down to your local store and pick up the parts, also by you buying the parts you get the warrenty if your mech. buys the parts you dont get it.

i have a 2011 mainstreet at 10k they told me they had to turn the front rotors due to them warping, aabout 1 month ago took it back in for the last oil change with 32k on it. told them the brakes were shuddering again, after checking them they said the rotors needed to be replaced at my cost we got into a discussion about that and as i told them they should have replaced them at the 10 k instead of turning them,then they offered to do the labor for free if i bought the parts and i still said no as they wanted 190.00 for the rotors.told them it should be taken vare of the one time goodwill offer thur chrysler. they called back later and said they would replace everything for free. they put on new pads and rotors. i had checked on the parts thur the local parts store and rotors and pads would have cost me less than 140.00 and do it myself.

if you have advance auto parts stores in canada go to retailmenot.com and click on their coupon codes and buy on line and you will save alot of money also advance also will give 1 free set of pads after they are wore out all the other parts store that sells them wont i always but wagners thremo-quite pads about $54.00 ive been told ceramic pads are harder on your rotors due to the heat they build up but they dont give you the dust problems like reg pads.... goood luck

have a 2011 mainstreet with 17 inch kumos and just turned 33k they they still look great they look less than half worn out, have rotated them 2 times so far.i do alot of interstate driving.i run 36 to 38 psi in them.my daughter runs a postal route in her dodge van and she goes thur a set of tires in 7 months, all the stop and go and on-off the road wears them out her brakes only last about 6 months also but it is how you drive and how you take care of them.

had to have the plastic side cover replaced on the passenger seat today as the tabs broke loose fron the metal clips. got home, and then went to go out for lunch with the wife and see a message on the info center that my battery in my key fob is running low , so i go down to the local dealership and they check the fob and say the battery is fine and then they have a long talk about if it even has a battery in it. i laugh at that and told them it had to have a battery in it. well to make a loooong story short they looked it up and and said yes their was a battery in it and they went ahead and put a new one in. WHEW they wore me out on this repair. it was covered under the 36k waranty. i do have to admit this was not the dealer the i normal use and wont go back to them as this was such easy repair work i didnt think they could mess it up.but i dont know.. oh well so far so good

well just took my journey back to the dealer and they installed the new rotors and also put new pads on also only took them 1 hour so i waited on them. back on the road with new front brakes didnt think to ask if i would get the 12 or 12000 mile warrenty that you usally get with dealer installed parts. as this was a one time good faith repair on the brakes oh well i am happy and when they start to give me any more problems will fix them myself. do have to say that cullman dodge in cullman al. does go the extra mile to help their cust.

thanks have never had the opp yet to do rear disk brakes yet, just the fronts.as a safety note always use jack stands under the car even if you feel it is okay to use just the jack as they can fail, better safe than sorry.......

i agree with redtomatoman my 2011 mainstreet has 31k on it and my tires look and ride great i have rotated them twice and they still look like they will go an other 31k dont know if i will buy more of them or not but i dont have no complaints about them. i have always like bridgestone tires as i do alot of interstate driving so my tires might last longer than someone doing alot of stop and go.also i always replace my tires way before the tread bars get close to showing as i like deep tread on my tires for better water hydroplaning so if i get 60 k out of a tire i feel like i have got my moneys worth.. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY but thats how i feel about using the tires down to the tread bars drive safe my friends

dont know about 2012 but the 2011 have semi-metalic. because i was just talking to the dealer about them. guess its who you ask about the ceramic pads they dont have the dust problem from what i hear, but are rough on the rotors. oh well who knows

if you buy from advance auto and buy the wagner thermo-quite pads they will replace them 1 timr for free auot zone and rileys auto wont. i really like the wagners thermo never tried the ceramic pads and the parts man says they are rougher on the rotors then normal as they build up more heat

just got back from my last oil change my 2011 has 31k on the speedo the dealership turned my rotors at 10k and they are starting to mess up again so had the delaership take a look at them.they said they were to far to turn and said i would have to pay for new ones as i had 31k, i argued with them and asked them to call chrysler and ask for a goodwill event as they should have been replaced instead of turning them before and they called me back and said if i would pay for the new rotors <after market rotors as they dont have none in stock>they would do the labor for free. i asked how much for the rotors and they told me $195.00 i laughed at them and told them i could buy them alot cheaper then that at advance auto and do it my self. then they called me back and said they would do the job for free as soon as the rotors come in as the are on back order and it might be 2 weeks or 2 months before they get the parts. i said okay since they will do the whole job for free. My wife said i sould just go ahead and do them myself since i can buy new rotors and new pads<thermo-Quiet > for about $130.00 at least i would know they would be done right and using quality parts. havent decided which route to go.If i let the dealer do them ill have new rotors but used pads that are about half wore out or do them myself and not have to worry about them for a long time. also i use website retailmenot.com to get coupon codes for advance auto that saves you a good chuck of change off of the retail price. you use the code and order on line and pay on line than go down and pick up the parts at your local store works really good give it a try.

i always use some bumper sticker remover that you buy from any auto parts store just spray it on and let it set a little spray some more on and start lifting the edge of the letters or badges that you want removed you might use a plastic stick or scraper to help get under the edge. have never used any heat source to help remove them. done my 2011 right after i got it.

yea my wife gets upset with me when we are on a trip and stop for gas and i leave the car running (since its like 100 degrees) and get out to pump the gas and the bells keep going off, found out leave the door open a litttle and it doesnt chime.. happy wife and happy me

good luck on getting any car company to give you a life time warranty. unless you can go back in time. dont think any will ever do it again.. but i do love my 2011 mainstreet have had to the brakes worked on once but have 27k on them now and they might need to be turned again but i dont think they are bad enough for them to agree to it. other than that i would rec. this car the 3.7 engine will really get up and go.

next thing ill be doing is walking up to the house door and expecting it to open without using my keys.
