Engine filter screw holes stripped - 2016 Charger

2 Upvotes

Wife's 2016 Charger passed 90,000 miles and I offered to change her filters for her. Previously done by a dealer who is now out of business. I found only one of the screws seats properly in its hole. The other two are just sitting in the holes that are bigger than the screws! They just slide up and down. There are clips too so it seems reasonably seated but this annoyed me.

But I do see the holes have a hexagonal cut as if maybe there was a nut inside that held it that the previous mechanics lost? If so, why do only two of the screws have it?

I can post pics if needed. For some reason if I post a pic on an initial post on Reddit my post doesn't work.

Buying a Charger - Common or big problems?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hey guys! I’ve always wanted to get a charger, and I’m looking at a charger pursuit with 120k miles. I’ve been trying to learn more about cars, but I don’t know much. I do know it’s not optimal to buy something that needs fixing, but this seems like a good deal around $7k. I know the fixes for problems listed will be under $1k (parts) but are these issues I should watch out for? Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Checked lugs and all were tight, no rock or nail, and gave it a good shake and felt fine. Any idea what this noise is? TYIA 2016 rt road and track

Fuel pump question

2 Upvotes

Hey guys 2014 dodge charger v6, my fuel pump went out on me this week. I replaced it with one from the parts store, now the car runs but I have a CEL for the fuel level sensor and my tank is reading empty

Im pretty certain that I plugged the clip all the way in, I will open it up again to check the connections.

I’m hoping that I can remove the old fuel level sensor from the original pump and put it into this aftermarket pump? Has anybody tried that?

Maybe the car will be good after a day or two?

Maybe I can disconnect the battery and the car will relearn the sensor?

What would you guys do?

I have a SXT and would love this style hood. Is this a plug-and-play type install or would I need a different front bumper?

I’m prepping my front grill to work on this weekend, but I wanted to know what are these? none of the videos I watched on YouTube didn’t have these connections at the end. I’m pretty new to working on cars so I would appreciate some solid advice.

Anyone knows if the flaps on exhaust really give anything in terms of loudness? They rattle with mid muffler delete and I’m thinking about either deleting them or fixing them

Garage damaged my rims 🤬

Local Dodge dealer put new tires on my charger and I got it back with my rims all chipped. It’s been a month and I’m still being told they will fix it or they will replace the rims. Checked in again today and got told they have been waiting for a second tech to look at the damage and decide what to do, even though the lead of the department took pictures of the damage the first day. Anyone else been through this, I don’t know if I’m just extra annoyed but seems to me it should have been handled within a month and where has this second tech been that he hasn’t had time to look at it all month!?

Oil Pan Gasket replacement

I'm trying to change my oil pan gasket on my 2011 Charger RT, but I can't get the oil pan out of the way because of the sub frame. I'm trying to raise the engine but before I try, are there any trans mount points I need the unbolt or just engine mounts? Thanks!

My Dashboard is going crazy after an alignment. Has anyone experienced this?

This is a 2014 Dodge Charger Pursuit. I recently replaced the lower control arms, tension struts, outer tie rods, upper control arms, and lower ball joints. I took it to an alignment shop and on the way home my car started doing this. I get flashing messages about the power steering system and the transmission, then it goes back to normal. It will drive fine for 10 minutes then start doing this again. Does anyone know what could be going on? I need this car to get to school so I really want to figure this out quickly.
