    Default Tee - I think I broke it.

    72 mph, pulling single axle pace trailer with golf cart.......flashing check engine light, vibrations from hell, stopped made sure it wasnt a blown tire. Eased on to bojangles, to the land (4 yo Finn got to go on his first duck hunt). Drove home, nothing seemed too bad wrong. (ie it didnt leave me like the checy did 4 times)

    Took to dealer this morning. Cylinder #5 non responsive, waiting on mopar to respond, rocker arm intact, 214 lbs, replaced plugs/ coil, and nothing. Tech is thinking I dropped a cylinder.

    Shit aint made to run with me. I need a fucking diesel, or a pack mule.

    Sounds exactly like what happened to my truck. Ended up being a blown head gasket.

    Probably some of that Sports Forum anger has dribbled down into your engine and caused it to rage as well.
    I'm going to heaven for the weather and hell for the company.

    Be dangerous, unpredictable, and make a whole lot of noise.

    I buy as little union as I can, and own two Toyotas.

    Two old sayings, "no car goes far if it's a mopar", and what's the definition of Dodge? to miss, to avoid, to stay away from.

    sorry about you troubles with it though.

    Kinda off topic, but I have a 2010 Chevy and the "reduce power" light, the CEL and "traction control" light came on. Anybody ever had that happen or knows of what may be wrong. It gave a P2135 on the machine. Something about the throttle body but that shouldn't be affecting the traction control should it?

    Throttle position sensor. There is an "extended service policy" from Chevy. It covers up to 120K miles. Call your dealer.
