Well heres how the last hour of my life went. Pulled out my Maverick battery that decided to calf. Wont even take a charge. Crappy Mopar batts!! Popped in the red top Optima I have in the garage and its better but still low on charge. Go to get the boosters, then remember they are in the trunk of my wifes 300 that I left at work today for a new door installed. (some dizzy young girl backed right into it, Said she didnt look when backing up,DUH!!!) Pulled the Optima back out. Take it to work tomorrow since we have a new fancy battery tester/charger($5000 essential chrysler tool?? Can you say OVERHEAD!!) that does the new Grand Cherokee batts and Optima types. Finished my beer, came in sat down here to type my disgust. I feel better now. Thanx for listening. The Positive is I have a nice new 2011 Ram truck to drive as a loaner till the 300 is done. What a great job they did on these trucks 09 and up. The 4.7 is getting 5MPG average more than my 4 liter Jeep.
Know what you mean Darren...My 4 Mo. old Autocrappers fuel sending unit failed today (4 months to the day)...Fuel guage reads full all the time...Guage is good,wireings good, IVR is good... I know theres only 4 gallons in the tank . Its good that the stinkin thing has a 5yr warrantee...Now to see if they honor it. Hope you have a better day tomorrow man!!!
That sucks. I get really tired of inferior parts and products now a days. Plan was to drive the Mav to work tomorrow. Oh well. I really dont like working on the car at home. I'm not really set up for it here and you get spoiled having everything on hand at work. You knwo what I mean. A little set back like a dead batt. shuts me down at home where at work I'd just grab the charger and boost it. Oh boy. Maybe I just need a bigger property with a nice shop.
Oh it was directed at you. I just finished reviewing your thread before I started this one. Sounds like your luck is rubbing off on Dave and Pete as well.
If it happened at or near the end of your drive Dave...I would see if one of the wheels threw a weight...
LOL... I think Justins safe on this one. Dave never posted in his capow thread...That means its aaalll Dave on this one...
Everything on my car is new. The tires are only 3 years old now...I think the drive shaft needs to be balanced, I never did it after it was shortened.....
