Default Re: Loss of Power!!!

Hmmm

Not so sure on the IC pump failure. Yes, I know it's a booger and it fails readily but I have noticed exactly the same on my SRT6. Sometimes the gearchange kicks down and we're off like a scalded cat; at other times it just stays in high gear and bogs down. The thing is: when it bogs down and I manualy shift , it's away like the clappers again.

Now I know why people fit the Speed Booster. It's the same problem. Yes it could be intercooler but try a manual shift and see if it reverts to normal.

Whatever the reason, it's buggin' the life out of me. It's in for a first service soon so I'll ask them to check the IAT sensor. If it throws a fault code then it'll be the IC pump, for sure. Only 10k miles and under warranty so it's Chrysler's problem.
