    Never use silicone brake fluid. It is strangely and inexplicably compressible, leaving you doing leg presses on the brake pedal to get actuation.

    Silicone brake fluid DOT5 is not great for high performance use. DOT 5.1 might be as it is not silicone based. Worse DOT5 can cause nasty issues when mixed with non silicone fluid. Unless you were replacing all brake system components including lines (or really well flushing them out with air...

    It's That Shitbox Dodge Again!

    Certainly not a big deal to me but I have been irritated by it many times. Where is that stupid little button....its just out there in no logical place and is black like everything around it. Seems dumb to me. However, there were no other 707 HP sedans so...don't really care. I like that he...

    Merry Christmas to All my HCF.org SRT Friends!

    That sounds like an excellent Christmas. I am no cook but am fortunate to have family around that can make some amazing meals. Soon we will be getting some Christmas dinner going, can't wait! Merry Christmas to you Linda and all.

    It's That Shitbox Dodge Again!

    I like his reviews, he does the same sort of thing with all the cars. He likes to pick out oddities and quirks. Overall I had no issues with this review. I think he is mostly correct with his points. Most of the mentioned sort of negatives don't bother me but some do. I'm no fan boy and picked...

    FCA Cross-platform HVAC Issues

    So, would it be accurate to say when you set a temp, say 70 the temperature at the vents will not be at 70. It will be significantly higher or lower as needed in order to bring the cabin to the selected temperature, measured by an ambient sensor. Thus duct temperature means very little.

    Any of you folks using this Element Fire Extinguisher?

    Interesting, have not seen that before. Love the compactness but sure seems expensive.

    Staggered Set-up 20x9.5 and 20x11 - 275/40 and 315/35

    Hope you get some good responses as I am also considering this exact setup except on a Charger.

    Charger Hellcat slow engine start when heat soaked

    I think this issue has expanded beyond the occasional car with a bad battery, so everything is worth consideration. Would an engine still turn with the starter if the pistons had expanded to the point of contact with the cylinder wall? Would metal be made that could be seen in an oil analysis...

    3-Claw "Claw Strike" sticker origin???

    Charger Hellcat slow engine start when heat soaked

    Not a very happy thought. Hard to believe that production tolerances would be such that this was possible.

    3-Claw "Claw Strike" sticker origin???

    Maybe the cat scratched itself (except the pictured is an RT). Sort of a demonstration of crazy blood lust. Its mean and scary crazy. Not something the faint of hart would want to play with.

    Charger Hellcat slow engine start when heat soaked

    If you want to do some reading over on the other site: https://www.hellcat.org/threads/anyone-have-starting-issues.228127/ Seems this issue is an issue for more than a few. Looks like mostly 2018 and 19 cars. One post said something to the effect that FCA-SRT knows about this problem. However...

    Exhaust Difference?

    Completely agree, don't even know where my black key is. Totally pointless. If it were set up to force Valet mode that might be more worthwhile.

    What was your reaction the first time behind the wheel of a Hellcat??

    I'd been wanting to get a new car for awhile. Needed something that could haul kids around and wanted something fun after years of more practical cars. I've had a few fun cars in the past but missed the muscle car action of my old modified Z28 the most, (V8 rumbling rear wheel drive smoke...

    Charger Hellcat slow engine start when heat soaked

    I'm still curious about this issue. Replacing my factory battery helped a lot in my car. However, hot starts still sound like the engine is not turning as fast via the starter motor as it is on a cold start. Is a hot engine take more torque to spin? Is there some electrical component that...

    Charger Hellcat slow engine start when heat soaked

    The after run chiller doesn't automatically run on shutdown. You would have to initiate it yourself. Are you? If not then I doubt it could be a factor.

    Oh the Electric change is definitely here and I certainly hope the future Electric owners can dish back all the favors us ICE age owners did.

    I don't buy into the environmental BS. The movement is designed for globalist control and is just another religion at this point. Nothing the western world could do anyway on a global scale. That said I like clean air and taking care of what you have. Sensible solutions are good, like catalytic...

    Mileage milestones set in the computer and what changes???

    That is correct as it doesn't have MDS. It does have the completely non related VVT system, thankfully.
