You want to chop into a brand new car? I would make sure you trust the shop a lot so you will be happy with it

What are you talking about dude?

A new filter might free a little something up but it's not going to be very measureable I don't think there is much to increase HP yet, HP Tuners is working on expanding their support to Dodge but that hasn't happened yet and I'm not sure if the Journey will be tuneable For better milage you could try higher octane gas, which will give you slightly better performance if the ECU is programmed that way, and stay off the pedal

TV, Cell, Radio towers, pretty much anything putting out a radio signal will mess with the system and cause interference, you especially notice this if you live somewhere higher than the surrounding area since that is where they put antennas

If you want to avoid a trip to the dealer and see what is setting the SES light you can take it to AutoZone and they will check it for free

I would think that would work, I know in the cars it came with it will not work when the car is locked (which arms security, and during remote start I think, which locks it anyway) but if you can make the hole then I think you can add it in

I don't exactly see what would cause a vibration in the heads, that is where the valves and spark plugs are I think there is something with electric valve timing beaucse there is electrical connections on the valve covers and there have been weird issues with cars like that but I hope this fixes your problem First I heard dealers have been replacing pistons for ticking noises and now rebuilding the heads on a 1 year old car to stop a vibration, sometimes I wonder where they find these people that work on cars at dealerships, if you can call what they do work

I don't think its a rotor, you would feel that either all the time or when you hit the brakes not just when you are on the gas. Right when you see the engine light come on try to take it to Autozone, they will scan the car for free Sounds more like a drivetrain issue, what you are describing is commonly called "shudder" and that could be from the torque converter or something with the internals of the transmission

Yep, you'll haar ABS kicking in to limit wheel spin and once you are truely stuck it won't spin the wheels no matter how hard you punch the gas

Just beacuse there are 6 recalls doen't mean they all apply to your Journey, Dodge will send you something in the mail if it applys to your car

I would guess the car is warming up, since the fluid not only lubricates the transmission it is also like a hydralic fluid that is used to move little pieces inside try letting the car warm up for 5 minutes and see if this still happens

My Bonneville is fairly heavily modded to about 300 HP (205 stock) and sometimes I just like to lay down some rubber, sometimes if I need to swerve and hit the gas and the tires spin it will cut back engine power and apply the brakes which is the oppisite of what I need it to do

to answer more your question, no there isn't a way to leave it off at all times, when you turn the car off then back on it will reset, I have to do the same thing with traction control on my Bonneville in the summer

Don't you have 2 outlets up front? one has a battery symbol on it and that is on all the time then there is one with a key on it and that is controlled by the ignition
