I have a 2005 with the magnum V8. It has 133,000 miles on it. My problem is that when I first start it up it sounds like a diesel for 3 to 5 minutes depending on how cold it is outside. I replaced the hydraulic lash adjusters but that made almost no difference. I'm thinking timing...

Sorry in advance for such a long story. I have a 2007 quad cab with a v8 4.7. I bought it 4 years ago, about 2 years ago the check engine light came on and I noticed that it started to make a popping sound that sound is random there is no pattern to it. This didn't happen everyday. Then after...

I have an 05 dakota with the 4.7 engine and it just turned over 100000 miles. All of a sudden the engine will not idle. As soon as you remove your foot from the gas the engine dies and at a stop light I have to keep it in neutral and my foot on the accelerator. My mechanic has not been able...

On my 2000 dakota sport, the under hood engine compartment bulb burnt out due to water getting it wet while it was on. I thought this was an ample opportunity to upgrade it to LED's. I got them put up and wired in but they don't come on. Did i blow a fuse when the last bulb burnt up? are the...

Ok so a week ago me and my wife moved to a new house. I rented a uhaul trailer to do it. Ever since then my truck has been having some issues. When I first get in it at the beginning of the day everything is fine. After about a minute of driving it, the doorlocks stop working, the a/c fans stop...

Was wondering if installing a dual twin air intake on my 2006 Dakota would lead to any noticeable increase in performance. Would live to get some opinions before I spend any money on one.

I just purchased this truck and found this piece broken but can't tell what it is or where it goes but it should not be open the the engine compartment. Please help.

Just bought a 99 Dakota that needs help and I'm not sure what this piece went to but I know it being open to the engine compartment is not correct. If you know what this goes to I would appreciate the help.

I'm brand new to this site and don't know very much about my truck. My truck (2000 Dodge Dakota, 3.9L engine) is a piece of crap and has the hardest time climbing ANY hill, even if it's the tiniest. Is there ANY WAY I can put something in the engine to give it some more power? I tested my...

Hey I'm looking to get some more power out of my 2001 Dakota 4.7L Quad Cab SLT. I'm thinking about a cold air intake and programmer. Is there anything else I can do to get more power out of it? I'm not looking to take it to the drag strip, i just wanna have more power for when i'm having fun.

Hello all, I joined this forum to find ideas and ask MANY questions about Dodge Dakotas. I have no prior knowledge about Dakotas but I do have an interest in them. Currently I don't yet own a Dakota but I will be getting a early 90's style when I do buy one. At the moment I have a 2003 Dodge Ram...
