-   -   Dodge Intrepid 2.7L engine problems Replace with 3.2 (http://www.autobanter.com/showthread.php?t=5196)

msc210 January 10th 05 06:47 PM

I have done a 2.7 to a 3.2 engine swap. For a week or so it ran great then
it went in to the safe mode. where the check engine light flashes and
slows you down to a stop. I then unhooked the battery for about 15 min.
Hooked it back up and ran good for about a week then it did it again.
Someone told me the ecm was over loading and would have to install the 3.2
ecm. I bought the one the 3.2 engine was with. Put it on and nothing. So
I bought the bcm (body control module) put it on and nothing. Any help?

msc, sounds like your 2.7 ecm or your icm-- (instrument panel cluster)- are
malfunctioning. We have had no problems like this thus far in the
conversions that we've done. This sounds like a problem that the dodge
dealer may have to take care of. If you take it there, make sure they
treat it as if it still has a 2.7l in it.

toyota1, what's your email, or pm me. I'm ready to swap in the 3.2.
Have a question or two.

FYI - just got home from picking my '99 Dodge Intrepid up from the dealer
and guess what they said???? Needs a new engine: oxygen sensors soaked in
oil, damaged catalytic converter, piston seals, need I go on? I absolutely
love my car but now am faced with the dilemma of scrapping it or trying to
find an engine to go in it. Since I purchased the car the transmission
has been rebuilt, several sensors replaced, many smaller defects (power
window), and now this. And for all the negative folks listening, yeah,
the up-keep was flawless, papers to prove it. It is truly a shame that a
car with that much potential had to have such a horrible engine! Maybe
I'll keep it, or maybe I'll start car shopping. Any suggestions on a car
that won't break down before it's paid for? ~A~

How can you answer a question like that? I see these intrepids in my dealer
every day, some have up to 300k on them with the 2.7, my brother owns one,
he has 98k, my wife has the sebring with the 2.7 she has 33k
If I suggested an intrepid what would you have said? I see all makes and
models with problems, from Ford to Chevy to Toyota and so on...you asked a
rhetorical question!!!

1 a : of, relating to, or concerned with rhetoric asked merely for effect
with no answer expected <a rhetorical question> (that is what i gave you)

Your ignorance is exceeded only by your lack of writing ability. Did you
drop out of school at about the 4th grade?

Learn how to use capital letters, punctuation, and spelling so you don't
look like such a complete fool around here. Oh, and top posting is also
for ignorant n00bs.
