I JUST TOOK MY 98 INTREPID (35,000 MILES) INTO THE SHOP TODAY DUE TO THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMING ON AT IDLE. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE SHOP OWNER HAS SEEN 2 OTHER INTREPID'S IN THE LAST MONTH WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AFTER HE CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP, HE LET ME KNOW THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THEY ARE HAVING WITH THESE ENGINES BUILDING UP SLUDGE. MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THE BUILDUP IN MY ENGINE IS SIGNIFICANT AND THAT IT IS IN DANGER OF COMPLETE FAILURE VERY SOON. THE ONLY REMEDY THAT CAN BE OFFERED IS TO HAVE THE ENGINE COMPLETELY REPLACED AT A COST OF AROUND $6,000 AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE DODGE/CHRYSLER WARRANTY. THIS ENGINE IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD AND ONLY HAS 35,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD REGULAR OIL CHANGES EVERY 3,000 MILES AND HAVE THE RECEIPTS TO PROVE IT. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN EXPECT THIS TO BE MY PROBLEM TO FIX AND AFTER RESEARCHING IT FURTHER ONLINE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE IN THIS SITUATION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANY ADDITIONAL INFO ON THIS TOPIC THAT IS AVAILABLE. *NLM

MY ENGINE STARTED MAKING A AWFUL TAPPING NOISE 3 BLOCKS AWAY FROM HOME. GOT HOME, TOWED MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND HE PROCEDED TO TELL ME I HAD BLOWN THE ENGINE IN MY CAR. MY MECHANIC DICUSSED MY PROBLEM WITH OTHER MECHANICS AND THE TOLD HIM THAT THE 2.7 LIT ENGINE IN THE INTREPID HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS FOR MOST INTREPID OWNERS. MY CAR WAS FULL OF OIL AND I ALWAYS FOLLOWED THE SERVICE SCHUEDULE. RIGHT NOW I AM REBUILDING THE ENGINE THAT HAS A BAD BEARING, HAS A CRACKED CAM SHAFT AND ALSO THREW A PISTON. THE REBUILDER HAS NO EXPLINATION AS TO WHAT WENT WRONG BUT THAT HE WORKS ON THESE ENGINES MORE THAN HE SHOULD BECAUSE THEY ARE SO NEW. BY THE WAY MY CAR HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT AND DID'NT MAKE A SOUND UNTIL THIS HAPENED.
