XJ BoSS

Hey guys. I recently leaned some stuff on the new dodge dart. It's some pretty cool and at the same time stuff that if it breaks there's no way you can fix t and or go without dropping a whole new crate engine.

Like the. New 2.4 tiger shark turbo engine. Has a camshaft that controls the intake valves and a vacuum operated operated exhaust valve actuator thing. And the timing chain requires about 8 special tools that hardly any one besides Chrysler techs will have. And the new c6 manual trany shares it's c3 tranny and brake fluid. I guess what I'm trying to say there's no longer a day of at home mechanics anymore.

If its not confirmed then why is Chrysler teaching there techs how to fix them? And I know there pretty much lifetime wise ****ty but I was just surprised at the technology.

the NON turbo 2.4l, 1.8l and 2.0 has been confirmed. now can we assume that there will be a 2.4T. yes. but we wont know intill they say so.. the fiat 1.8L has crazyyy technology in it.. ill see if i can find something on it.

Chrysler is toying with a 2014 SRT4 300+HP, a 5 door hatch, and a small x-over based on the same platform.

I saw a Dart down at the chrysler tech center in Auburn Hills Mi last week, pretty sure it was pre production......not that impressed.

More fun facts:

The front doors are attached to the sides of the dash, any dash work that needs to be done, like any HVAC service. both front doors will need to be fully removed.
