Problems with 300C engines
I am not sure if your replying to me but with my 05 chrysler with the Hemi I only have 13000 miles on the car. I do get tiicking from the engine and if thier is a solution please let me know. If that is normal then I will live with it.
Well, I don't even have a Hemi but have the same problems. At least then, when people ask why it clatters and shakes - I could say it's the beast of a Hemi under the hood. But no, I have the 3.5. Quite adequate for my needs though.
When at stop signs and in traffic (hot or cold) I have the shake. Three times the dealer claims to not feel it. How could you not? it's almost a vertical bounce at this point. And, it appears to be worse with the AC on. They already replaced the AC clutch and re-flashed the PCM but I still have it. A tech told me though, that this is the engine switching to a leaner mixture when it sits to get better mileage and emissions. Is this true? A lean mix would definely make a HO engine shake... And about the clatter - must just be Chrysler injectors cuz I have it too.[:@]

My C ticks often. Hops and shakes a bit at lights. It's just the ponies wanting to be unleashed. On the other hand, my Ram doesn't have the tick. Difference of 92K on the Ram and only 27K on the C?
