Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Trucks / January 2009100,000 mile check up questions
2004.5 CTD 6 spd. Just turned over 100 k any ideas on what the service at this mileage should run and what is involved? TIA  SignatureJoe The survival of the fittest is the ageless law of nature, but the fittest are rarely the strong. The fittest are those endowed with the qualifications for adaptation, the ability to accept the inevitable and conform to the unavoidable, to harmonize with existing or changing conditions. i usually replace spark plugs,wires,transmission fluid ,radiator fluid ,brake fluid,and coolant hoses pcv valve,serpentine belt inspect vacume hoses .at 100,000 miles .or you could just wait for each one to give out. lucas ---------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.minibite.com/america/malone.htm > i usually replace spark plugs,wires,transmission fluid ,radiator > fluid ,brake fluid,and coolant hoses pcv valve,serpentine belt inspect > vacume hoses .at 100,000 miles .or you could just wait for each one to > give out. lucas Ok. I'll wait > i usually replace spark plugs,wires [...] vacume [sic] hoses The OP's going to have a difficult time finding those... Aside from normal maintenance, the valves should be adjusted at 100K. Yes, coolant should be flushed, and hoses replaced. The serpentine belt should changed, as it should also have been changed at 50K. Brake fluid should be changed every 2-3 years, unless you're running silicone fluid (and, if you didn't change it from the factory, you aren't). Transmission fluid and filter should be changed every 30K, along with front/rear diff fluid (even though the book calls for changing it every 15K - I think that's excessive). > Brake fluid should be >changed every 2-3 years, unless you're running silicone fluid Do NOT run silicone brake fluid in any vehicle with ABS. Silicone brake fluid will not work properly in ABS vehicles, and can cause complete brake failure during emergency situations, without any warning due to the tendency of silicone brake fluid to cavitate when pulsed by an ABS system. |
