206,000!

[BadFastGTC]

My SRT4 had been my daily driver for work. I purchased it new on 10/18/05. By 10/18/08 I had over 200,000 on the car. I've since gone on to a new career as the Courier work died. I had talked some time ago to Tim Pettijon about what was left in these high mileage cars of ours. (His SRT4 is in the 160,000 range) Well, yesterday we tested the dyno to see if an issue was cured and used my car to check it. The car still puts out 204 to the wheels and hit 235 torque. The car is all stock and all the driveline parts are original, save for the axles! The valve cover has never been off this car! Cool eh?

I suppose I got a good ACR comapred to some of the stories I've heard from others.

Nice pace and MPG at it!

[BadFastGTC]

I couldn't believe I didn't get ticketed for that pace at some point. Thank goodness the car is black and doesn't really grab one's attention so quickly.

Nice pace and MPG at it!

Who says an SRT4 isn't reliable should take note. Congrats! When I was in vocational school I was told miles didn't mean anything on a vehicle as long as it had been taken care of. My 94 voyager has 276k and it looks like your going to catch up this year at the pace your going.

Where's that one guy that had all the problems with his.....now he's telling people don't buy dodge products..as he thinks there junk....wasn't it slasky?

I will always own mopar products until i die...my pops has a 93 voyager...170,000+ Its still his daily driver...and we havn't replaced any engine stuff..just regular maintenance and one wheel bearing.

I say the same thing.. when people tell me car X is junk past this many miles I laugh at their ignorance because it completely depends on the maintenance, if it was thrashed on etc.

Nice! I'm planning on getting an SRT4 at some point. Prolly two-three years down the road. I just don't think I'm going to go the used route. Not many people take as good of care as their fast cars as you!
Congrats!

Now that I no longer do the work I did before, I won't be putting the miles on it as quickly as I once did. I was hoping to top 250,000 this year, but it won't be happening as fast! I ran nothing but synthetic oils in the motor, gear lube in the trans (Royal Purple Max Gear for the most part), good oil filters, and changed most everything when it should have been. I did let the timing belt go for much longer than recommended (162,000) Heh-heh.

I positively hate the trans in the SRT4. I've had it rebuilt, I've tried numerous lubes to get it to shift, I finally elongated the hole to the clutch master cylinder pushrod to get it to shift. All this since day one I owned it. Save for that issue, it has been a great car. The trans issue really had me cheesed for some time, but what the heck, I adapted to it and drove accordingly.

Overcome and adapt! I like that. Which years of the SRT4's had said issue? Or was it all of them?

I think it was the 2005's that had the wierd tranny issues...
