I went through previous posts, I have to say I was amased by the amount of knowledge people here are sharing with others.
don't take me wrong, I know a lot about cars and I follow other forums, but I never saw such professionalism before. for example, I knew nothing about diagnostic codes that you can get from ON-OFF on the ignition key, let alone the codes them selves.
this is the feature I am very happy to know about.

now a question:
may car is from '97 and has 200 000 km now. the manual says that T-belt is to be changed on 172 000 km, so I did.
new T-belt was not original chrysler. should I keep same interval, another 172 000 km?
nobody said I should change water pump while changing belt. is that OK?

think that's enough for first time.
will have more questions soon.
sorry if I made any errors in writing.

 

yes I would have changed the water pump out when I did the belt just a rule of thumb. As for the time frame do as the manual says so from when u did it to the next time 172k

 

thanks i wonder.moe

 

thanks guys.

I wasn't even sure you have that type of engine in US.
so, that kind of mileage is normal for T-belt? couse, I've never heard of any european car with such long T-belt life.
and I will change the water pump next time.

some more questions:
-do you have any expiriance with cars equipped to run on LPG?
-on rear suspension of my car, there are two rubber pieces preventing chassis tu hit the axle during rough driving. they are worn out, went to pieces. does anybody know their value in US? I will have to sell my kidney to get those new here.

 

hmmmm, no answers.

maybe I wasn't clear enough.
upon instalation of gas system, I had some trouble with my car so I started to learn about it. in time, I learned a lot and I asked you guys about it, couse I want to share that if you have any questions.

gas (LPG) is very popular in europe and very friendly for your engine.
you might come one day to a point where you will informations.

as a start, my expenses for fuel dropped about 40%. for the same mileage.

want to know more?

 

hey wonder i've never had to replace those bumpers.but a safe bet would be around $65.00.dealer only part.moe

 

huh
now I feel better. if they realy cost 65$, then it's not so bad. in austria they cost that much a piece.
I have to get a new pair anyway.

thanks moe.
