How can I fix the power locks on my 2007 Dodge Charger RT?
On a positive note, it doesnt seem any ofbthe switches are bad, however it might be good to check the relay it belongs to i did a short search on the net, but nothing popped up at me.I would look at the manual in the fuse/relay section, find out which one it is. While either listening carefully or keeping a finger on it, uou shoukd hear/feel a click when the switch is pushed. But also make sure whatever relay piece it might be also lists the trunk popper/opener.If you dig around and find out its all controlled bybthe computer, unplug the battery for about 10 minutes, and see if anything changes (yes this technique has worked for some of the weirdest things in the past, like the soor locks on my wives Honda years ago. Hopefully it can also be a relay, I would start there.Goodvthing is you dont have to go replacing a bunch of door switches.
Which engines can swap dodge charger 2.7!?
The only engine that will bolt up to your vehicle as is without changing the entire drive line is the 3.5L You will also need the engine wiring harness and a NGC4 PCM for the new motor. If you put the 5.7L or the 6.1L you will have to replace the transmission and rear axle. Also with any swap you will need to replace the front springs and shocks to accommodate the weight increase of any of the engines you install. Also any engine you do will also need all harnesses and PCM and or TCM replaced to work those power plants. Also you will need to find out if the CAN C and CAN B bus systems will support the new engine application that you intend. Keep in mind that with the 5.7 and 6.1 you must install the W-A580/NAG1 transmission which also has an entirely different wiring harness to it. In other words it will be much cheaper to buy the car with that power plant that you want in it already.

Why do you have to change a car's alternator when changing the battery?
Well, three possibilities here.One. You alternator failed, killing the battery. Replace the battery, test the alternator. You can't test an alternator with a failed battery. Start the car with the new battery, voltage should go up from 12.5ish to 13–14 volt range.Rev the engine slightly (2500–3000 rpm). Turn on all the electricals, lights, air conditioning, etc. If the voltage drops below 12.8 for more than a second, look at replacing the alternator. It should spring back to 13ish.Often alternators will have a modular regulator. Most parts shops can test and determine if the alternator itself is blown, or if it's just the regulator. The brushes may be gone, and are sometimes integral to the regulator. Either way, it's cheaper than a full alternator.If the alternator is bad — doesn't make voltage; or is weak — doesn't hold voltage: then fix or replace it with the battery.Check the feed cables and battery connections on the off chance they're bad. You should do this regardless.Two. This is a low probability. Your battery failed, killing the alternator. This can happen in the case I forget a dead short in one of the cells of the battery, or a near total loss of liquid in your battery. Either way the battery case will likely be distorted, or even cracked. It will have a voltage less than 9. It may even stink of rotten eggs, with a slight taste of chewing on foil.Three. Your mechanic is a liar and a thief who's trying to get more money out of your pocket and into his. If he says that you have to replace the alternator because the battery is bad, this is the case.
Can a clogged catalytic converter unclog itself?
Well, it can happen that they will de-clog on their own, but usually need a helping hand. If it is utterly blocked, then dismantling and manually cleaning is the only solution.If the ceramic material inside is melted, then change it.Most modern Cats are stuffed with a ceramic honeycomb structure, unlike the older ones that had complex filters with platinum wool amongst other stuff inside them.One of the reasons they get clogged is people lugging around in fifth gear making lots of soot which clogs the honeycomb.A faulty EGR valve (gas recirculation) will do the trick as well.Faulty injection, allowing to much fuel to come through the exhaust can cause the honeycomb to melt when it starts burning the fuel... (replacement)But you can clear a blocked (not 100% blocked) converter by getting it hot enough to make it finish what it is supposed to do.The garages here in France have a naughty technique, they hoist the car up on lift with the motor going flat out, and stand underneath it holding a fire extuinguisher, just in case it sets fire to the car, or any flames from the now burning soot comes blasting out of the rear.It is a dangerous technique in my opinion, and not good for the engine, but it works. I don't suppose it works everytime either.So if you have a CAT that is partially blocked because you mooch around in fifth gear or have bad driving habits, you could try driving the vehicle hard enough to heat the CAT as it should be, where usually it can clear itself.So , if it is soot build up, there is hope for you, to unclog it without taking it off the vehicle and or changing it, if it is hard blocked with mineral deposits, unlikely. If it is melted, its got to be changed.
I have a 2007 dodge charger and i need to put in some transmission fluid but i cant find where to put it in?
Some newer vehicles don't have a dipstick, but a small bolt/filler plug that almost needs to be accessed from underneath while on a lift. You may need to take it to a service facility. If it is still under warranty, take it to the dealer and let them deal with it. They may show you where it goes in if you ask.
Do the dodge chargers have a theft tracker?
They do not have any factory installed tracking device, but if you want, you can purchase a GPS device that is hidden, and then if it ever gets stolen you can locate it. The cars if stolen will have to be towed or put on a flat bed. Since the keys have a chip in them.
My car won't start after metal touching positive post and it smoked. Could it just be the battery or something else?
First check all your fuse’s , yes every last one of them , most cars have a large fuse panel under the hood as well as in the passenger compartment, An then you also have what's called a “ Fusible Link “ , These are normally located going to High Amp Circuits , in your car , i.e. The starter , the alt , the fuse panels , Modern Cars have dozens of these Fusible Links , An they have different ratings that depends on the wire size going to that Component ( I think there are about 6 different gauges / sizes ). What happens when in your case a Direct Short , occurs it protects the wiring An various other electric components in your car ,, they melt down when large amounts of current pass thru them , most are covered in a Fire Resistance shrink tubing type material, An they are soldered on to the wiring of the various components , So grab your self a VOM Tester , or a Test Light use one for Computer Circuits - The VOM Meter would be a better choice , An starting looking for where there is no power where there should be power going , There's a old joke We Mechanics have - wires carry smoke thru them An when you let the smoke out there no good anymore, Good Luck , An hey don't let anymore smoke outta them wires , oh An if you find out it is a fusible link - don't let the Clown at the parts store try An sell you a 25 foot roll of it , tell them you only need like a foot ( 12 inches ) of it OK , An if they tell you otherwise go to another parts store as they are idiots ,
2009 Pontiac G8 Sedan or 2009 Dodge Avenger SXT?
Pontiac G8 is by far the better car not only from the quality standpoint but also from the performance side. It is built in Australia as part of GM's Holden division. I test drove one last year and it really has the punch especially with V8 engine. Dodge Avenger has not been very reliable and its interior consists of cheapest plastic molded parts you could ever find. If you were going to compare Pontiac G8 to a Chrysler product, then you need to compare it to Dodge Charger.
