Also from what I can pick up here, it is still okay to drive it for now without doing any damage? Your feed back would be much appreciated. ��
You need to replace the intercooler pump located in the right front behind the plastic inner fender. Total cost should be less than $200.00 if you install it yourself (new pump and fresh antifreeze . . . be sure to get the correct antifreeze). Do a search on this form for "intercooler pump" and you'll find LOTS of information on this issue and fix. Replacing the OEM Bosch pump (they
ALL go bad) will solve your problem.
When I replaced my failed OEM Bosch pump, I went with the Johnson CM30 pump. Here is a "how to" link with photos.

Since that time Bosch has come out with a new upgraded pump which seems to be the current "go to" pump as it's a more simple "plug and play" installation (no need to do any rewiring or modifying of the mounting bracket). The part number for the new Bosch pump is 0392022010. Here is a link to the upgraded Bosch pumps that are currently available on E-Bay . . .

Yes, you can drive the car as it is without fear of damaging the engine but you'll want to replace the pump at your earliest opportunity to enjoy your SRT6 power again.
Let us know when you have everything working again . . . HAPPY NEW YEAR!
