A friend of the family ripped off his bumper and fender liner on the left side of his caravan. Could you Identify what and where this part is/goes?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
2017 Grand Caravan
Slight RPM bouncing / fluctuations seen on the tachometer.
The video shows it at idle in park, but also does it while driving under constant load / speed where the RPM is consistent.
I actually don’t hear the engine increasing / decreasing in speed (but could be happening).
Any idea what may cause this?
I Changed Spark Plugs And Coils Still
Misfiring. What I should to do next?
This is a new noise that only recently started getting louder (last night was super loud but the noise has been there for a week just quiet)
This video was taken when the car was parked but the engine was on. The noise gets louder when the wheel is turned? The tires still turn like normal and everything just the noise is concerning
so in Canada you cant buy r134a refrigerant off the shelf. what is the replacement for it? I’ve charged it in the past but I cant remember what I used. some pages said 12a will work then others say it will destroy the system so I dunno anymore.
2012 caravan.
This started last week on my way home. It sounds like a kids’ Power Wheels stuck on high speed or a high-pitched whine. The noise happens when I press the gas, regardless of whether the vehicle is in park, neutral, or drive.
The oil is fine and was changed about a month ago. Power steering fluid is also within range. I’m starting to think this may be transmission-related because the van hesitates when trying to move and then kind of “jumps” forward.
Once I start moving, the sound continues and only seems to calm down when I let off the gas or stop accelerating. If I put it in reverse, the sound lessens, but it still happens in park, drive, and neutral. Turning the steering wheel does not affect the noise.
My driveway is on a hill, and now the van quickly tries to roll backward/downhill even when it is in drive. If I give it gas, it rolls back slightly and then “jumps” forward to move. This is new behavior.
The check engine light also came on today after I moved it. I’m concerned this may be a serious and expensive issue. I’m not sure what the vehicle is worth at this point. It’s a 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan with 92,000 miles, and I’ve only had it for about a year with no issues until now.
Hello car questions, I am not a car person, so bear with me. My neighbor, very sweet lady, gave me her 2003 dodge caravan for free. (signed me the title it was a legitimate transaction)
Disclaimer, my roommate has known her awhile and can vouch for her being a good lady
It just got 2k worth of work done to it at the end of april this year and has like around 180k miles on it.
I can either sell it to a car parts yard (i was quoted 340$) (this would be my rent money lol i just moved)
OR, i can wait a little bit until i have more $$ and insure it. (its current registration doesn't expire until november of this year) (geico quoted me 93 a month)
I wanna know FOR REAL. if this is worth it.
part of me really wants to keep it, its red/orange and it drives pretty well (ive taken it around the block 2 times to get a feel for it) has a cd player, the ac works nice. and im all for a cheap car that will get me from a-b
(i am not entirely prepared for the grueling central valley heat and commuting on foot/bus)
EDIT:
I compared the two invoices, the one that was just the list of things it needed done, and the list of things that were done,
it still apparently needs:
Shocks/struts
wheel alignment
serpentine belt
(do note if those lack of fixes make the car dangerous lol)
Even with worse gas mileage it’s cheaper for me to get E85 for $2.79 as opposed to $4.39 for 87 regular.
I've noticed that there's a leak coming from the front left driver side of my car. I'm not sure what's the issue as I've checked all the fluids and the levels are normal, nothing is below max. I haven't driven the car in about 3 days and this is the puddle that's been forming, is it too bad? About 3 months ago, I had a slow leak coming from the transmission but the mechanic said it was just a clamp and he replaced it, not sure what could it be this time. I'm supposed to leave on a trip in two days and I won't be able to take it to the shop as it's Friday and the reliable shops in the area are closed on weekends. Would appreciate any input.
Bought this van 5 days ago and three days after purchase engine light comes on and throws this code up . Anyone had this on theirs and outcome of it ? Vehicle : 2016 grand caravan sxt . Bought from a dodge dealer certified apparently
Manual says to take it to be serviced soon. Can anyone tell me what exactly is going on?
When it first happened the console said bad key and then the red light has been on since. Both my keys still work. But the red. Stays on.
What are the test modes I can run to try and clear it?
