Forum: 5th. Generation Chrysler Minivans: 2008 And Up

First, a quick shout out to Chryslercares for providing me the information to obtain a refund for the brake work we had done. In another thread I had mentioned how ridiculous it was to have put new brakes on a 2011 with 18,000 miles on it. Easy process and just got the check in the mail. And...

I've got little specs that are rust colored (easy to sea on white paint) in a variety of areas around the bottom of my 2012. Is this some kind of rust? It appears to be underneath as I cannot scrub it out during a wash. If this is rust I am very concerned... I'll try to provide pics when the...

I have a short uphill driveway. When I backed the van up this afternoon (first time since I got it last week), it shuddered a bit. Anyone else had this? Signs of bad things to come? D.

Hi all! So I picked up a 2010 (Build date late 2010) Routan SE this weekend, for 10,000 bux, and expecting to have a bit of a fixer upper. Went into service in March 2011. I hope you all are OK with me posting in this forum, the VW boards for these cars are dead or non existent! So far I have...

Can anyone tell me where all the connectors are located for the 08 T&C drivers side door panel? I've got to take it off to fix the door lock switch (buttons).

My wife drives a 2002 Chrysler T&C LXi, loves it although it has caused me to do more wrenching (mostly minor) on her than any other vehicle that I've ever owned. She, meaning the minivan - not my wife, has about 140K on her and still runs great. We were lucky because she needed some major...

Pull the little plastic plugs from the ceiling rear door trim. There about the size of a quarter. Replace the screw with a slightly longer one and attach a small length of chain made into a loop. Do this on each side. Now you can run a strap across the rear and another one up front using the...

I am gathering the parts and steeling myself for a transmission fluid change on my 2008 T&C. I now have the special dipstick and a filter, but I don't really like the idea of RTV for the pan gasket. Has anyone found a transmission pan gasket available ? I am using an ATP brand filter, but it...

Hi, Our 4 months new 2013 T&C started giving us trouble about a week ago. The metal expansion (like tin roof -- lack of better comparison) seems to be coming from the front top roof area, perhaps the joint section of the windshield and the top roof. The sound isn't loud but it is quite...

Hey guys, I haven't been at this forum in a while ! Sorry in advance if this has already been discussed. I need to replace the front pads of my 2010 T&C Limited. It's hard to believe that they lasted this long ! Anyway, I wanted to get your opinion on the best non OEM pads out there ? Has...

I'm looking at adding another minivan to the stable. I'll be buying it outright, and my budget is under $14k, so I'm basically bound to a 2008ish. I'd like to get a T&C, just because they look a little less plasticy inside (not a fan of 08 interiors), and they're a little nicer looking overall, but...

Enough of the Chrysler bashing, here are some interesting articles I found about Klaus Busse, head of interior design at Chrysler. Klaus Busse decided to stay with Chrysler when the Mercedes deal fell apart. Chrysler knew their interiors were cheap and needed to step up the game. Chrysler...

I took the time this past weekend to drop my spare tire and get a feel for what is takes to get the tire in and out of it hiding spot on this Gen5 before we hit the open road. While I had the tire out I also verified that this temporary spare clears the HD brake package on the front of the van...
