Yes. Or you can get a "real" one from harbor freight for like $10.

Gotta get a mechanics stethoscope and isolate it. Could be anything that is rotating.

Weathertech Floor Liners vs Dodge Journey Slush Mats!
jkeaton replied to Kech's topic in Accessories, Modifications
I got a cheap set of all weather mats off amazon for half the cost. Look good, perform the same function as the high dollar ones (where you are paying mostly for the name, kinda like cold air intakes). -
If they recommend premium, it will be stated inside the gas door or on the gas cap. My Eclipse is that way. It will run on regular, but there is a sticker inside the gas door that says "Premium gas recommended". It is tuned to run best on premium from the factory. From what I've read, the ecoboost does recommend premium gas.

Welcome to the forum. What was the actual code? It's probably the intake manifold tuning valve. Common problem on the 2.4. Had the same thing happen to our 2009. It's either the solenoid or the valve itself. On ours it was the solenoid. Luckily we had an extended warranty which covered the repair. They replaced the solenoid and it fixed it. If it's the valve itself, it's a lot more expensive because they have to replace the whole intake manifold. It's not repairable. You're going to have to take it to a dealer or shop to have it properly diagnosed. This is assuming you have the 2.4 since you don't state what year or engine.

No worries. You will learn. If you search around in this section, there are a few threads concerning upgrading to the bigger screen. Have a look around. -

Ok. You managed to quote your own post. Still need vehicle details. -
That was From 3 years ago. And if someone comes on here and asks intelligent questions and explains things, I have no problem helping. But start saying how much of a pos your vehicle is, how you will never drive a dodge again, dodge sucks, you wasted all you money on this car, blah, blah, blah. You're not getting any help from me because you've already reached your own conclusion. So why keep bitching? Just to bitch and talk trash about dodge. I'll give it right back to those types of posters.

Your owners manual has this info. Or you can download one here. Also it is helpful if you state the year and engine type of your Journey. http://www.dodgejourneyforum.com/topic/7566-get-your-owners-manuals-here/

2015 Journey 2000 mile trip report- Now at 5100 miles
jkeaton replied to RetiredChief's topic in Owner Impressions
I've stated before, the 2.4 we had in our 09 was a capable engine if you understand its limits. The pnly engine related issue we had in the 4 years and 80,000 miles we put on it was an intake runner valve malfunction, which was covered under our extended warranty. There is no comparing it to the V6 though in terms of "get up and go". Mileage is about the same. What I could not stand about the 2.4 was the agonizingly long time it took to get up to speed. -
