As you spend time on the forum, you'll notice there are three recurring mods/fixes that you should tackle - the crankshaft position sensor, the "sticky key fix" and the Relay Control Module repair. All three are fairly easy and the CPS is the only item that carries a parts cost.

With 6 or 7 months of ownership behind me now, I have had to complete two out of the three fixes, the relay module repair is up last (I checked mine and it looks OK, but better safe than sorry.)

Crossfires are great cars with a really good reliability record, I am thankful these little problems are easy to fix and carry very little expense. The catch is that any one of the three can leave you on the side of the road if you ignore them. If my car was to be driven daily by my wife, I would spend an afternoon and tackle all three.

Again, congrats on your purchase and welcome to the forum!
