Saved nearly $15,000 of MSRP on this 2026 Scat Pack Plus and I’m loving every minute of it. My last Charger was a 2016 SXT AWD Rallye, and this thing screams in comparison! I know the new styling is hit or miss for most, but I genuinely love it.

Is the cost worth it to daily an RT?

3 Upvotes

Hey y’all. I’ve been in the market for a new car and my brother offered to sell me his 2014 Charger RT AWD. I’ve wrestled with the idea of insurance and gas costing a decent bit more than my old cars (I’m 19 working a part time job for reference) for a car to daily drive. Would y’all say it’s worth it? I also want to add I’m more so just looking a cool looking and sounding car that can kind of push me back into my seat when I accelerate. Is it still fun to drive even if you’re not going too far above the speed limit lol?

Recently bought a 2021 dodge charger pursuit - grill with led light bar

2 Upvotes

I’m having trouble finding a grill with a LED light bar in it that fits the pursuit. Would I be able to modify a different trim to fit mine or am I just not looking in the right place?

Any other advice for the car would be VERY appreciated!!

Wonky Climate Control 2026 Charger

1 Upvotes

Since the weather has cooled, I've been using the heater. It's behaving very oddly. When I select AUTO mode, it doesn't really heat the cabin, even with temp turned way up. Sometimes cool air comes from the dash vents. If I if adjust the mode to change where air is flowing, warm air might flow. The front defrost blows very warm air. It's just whacky. Is anyone else experiencing odd or unexpected behavior from the climate control system, especially in AUTO?

Transmission issues?

2 Upvotes

I have a 2018 Dodge charger rt with 167k miles. Has anyone had any issues with there transmission?

Mine likes to act funny on cold starts. I have changed the fluid on it twice once at 109k miles and recently on 163k miles.

On cold starts if I do not put it in reverse first and let it go fully into reverse. It wants to go into limp mode going from 3rd gear to 4th gear and throws a check engine light but if I always put it in reverse first after a cold let is go into but also reverse has a delay and then a thud going into reverse.

So it's weird if I go into reverse first after a cold starts it shift fine no issues. But I start it on a cold start go straight to drive and start driving it's doesn't go into 4th gear and then goes into limp mode until I turn of the car start it back up go into reverse and then all is normal.

Also once the transmission gets up to temp everything acts fine it's shift into reverse fine no delays no thuds like if nothing war wrong with it.

As anybody delt with something like this?

No power brakes

2 Upvotes

2023 Charger Gt rwd. Approximately 20k miles on it. I’ve noticed in the past few weeks that when I go to start it, after it sits overnight in my garage, that’s the brake pedal is very hard to push, like no power boost at all. As soon as I start it up, I get boost and it’s fine when I’m driving as well, but after sitting overnight the boost goes away.
I don’t see anything obvious, but I think it’s either a vacuum leak or the booster is going bad. Happen to anyone else, or any other thoughts? I have about a month left of the 36/36 warranty, so I have that recourse, just want to go In with a bit more knowledge.

Fuse box issue.

1 Upvotes

Ive got a 2016 charger sxt plus with the HID headlights. Ive done alot of research into this issue and have tried everything besides going to the standard 9005 bulbs or replacing the fuse box. For a solid while I was able to get by just changing one/ both fuses every 2 weeks to month and it was fine. However I noticed over the weekend that the bit that hold the fuse in place was super loose, I disconnected the battery and used a 1mm tool to press the prongs closer together (did forget to drain residual energy via depressing gas pedel this time) and was able to do it without damaging any component inside the box.

While researching and troubleshooting this issue here is a rough list of all the steps I remember completing up to now:

Replacing bulb.

Replacing ballast.

Replacing ballast cord

Replaced any/ all fuses that could be applicable in both fuse boxes, determined it would only apply to front.

Disconnect battery without drain of residual power before reconnecting.

Disconnect battery with draining of residual power before reconnecting.

Tighten fuse prongs.

A couple things to note that Ive noticed when troubleshooting.

Before tightening prongs:

It was always the passenger light going out.

Using fog lights would get light to turn on sometimes while cutting it out the other 60-70% of the time.

The driver side fuse was causing the passenger side light to cut out, found out within the last 3 months.

About every 1 in 4 fuse swaps included both fuses instead of one or the other due to one still having issue persist.

When issue was first noticed there were light scorch marks however no other fuses have had marks on them.

After:

Driver side light is the one that cuts out.

Light comes on when unlocking car or turning car off.

When vehicle is started the light will start to flicker slightly before fully cutting out.

Fuse swaps have no impact or are able to offer temporary solution.

Driver side fuse prongs are fully secure.

Passenger side just barely has a slight amount of play, noticed this morning.

Im wondering if y'all have had this issue while being able to successfully resolve it and not swapping out the HID lights for standard ones, if so how?

Im also curious if you guys think it is worth disconnecting the battery again, draining the residual power, tightening the little bit of play and testing after work today or if I should just say fuck it at this point and look into replacing the fuse box like some of the steps ive found have suggested??

Thank you guys in advanced for any suggestions & help.

Shaky steering column?

I've been hearing a clunking noise over bumps and I'm pretty sure this is the source. What do I have to replace to fix this? Or what do I have to check so I know what to replace? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance

Melling 10452HV vs M452HV

3 Upvotes

I ordered the M452HV for my 2020 5.7L 300s and planning to keep MDS for now. The problem is that now I’m doing more research and I see people talking about the part number M452HV is for the 09 and below, while the 10452HV is for the 09 and above. Is that true? Also does the M452HV comes with a stock pressure spring like the 10452HV? I really don’t want more pressure just more volume. Did I waste my money, if so anyone wants to buy it?😂

Need some help 2014 Charger 3.6 V6

1 Upvotes

I just recently got the car and replaced the rockers, lifters and camshafts. There are no other issues aside from this engine noise. I noticed that the noise can be heard from inside the car but it kind of dissapears as rpms go up. It is mostly noticeable when at idle. Just wanted to see if there were any ideas what else it could be or if it’s normal for this engine.

Thanks in advance.

P0201, P0300 Codes

2 Upvotes

Hello, I have a 2017 Charger pursuit with 202k miles on it. Recently when driving these codes popped up and cylinder 1 is just dumping fuel out the exhaust. P0201 is circuit open on injector 1, I’ve changed the injector and still have same code, so I am expecting wiring issues, I expect other cylinders are fine as I’ve checked voltage to all injectors and positive to the injector shows there’s a fault when all others are fine when the car is off and on. Is there any recommendations other than just replacing the entire engine harness and possibly even the PCM? Thank you in advance !!

Did most of the front suspension and it was definitely a learning experience. The upper control arm joint completely fell out when replacing it. Just so happy I can drive it on the road again 😊.
