Hi guys, Innisfail here. Just got my 2004 crossfire, white coupe 60000kms on it. Have you ever had to get parts for yours yet? Mine has stalled and po3005 code comes up saying crankshaft position sensor. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brent

Hi again fellow ALberta Crossfire owners, I have fixed my sensor,easy to do if you have small hands.(lol) Anyone else in ALberta with TPMS(tire pressure monitor system),It seems like every other day I have to recheck and add or remove air from my tires. This is kinda a pain but I know its a good safety/tire saver to have. ANy thoughts?

If the light keeps coming on then I would say that you are keeping the tire pressures too close to the limit that it is set to or there is something wrong somewhere else.

Fixed your sensor, explain please.

Onehundred80,I have tryed to keep a extra few pounds in each tire,however sensors only allow 3 pounds extra,then light comes on. As for the sensor,I recently replaced my cranckshaft positioning sensor.

Just drove over the Coquihalla Highway to Vancouver. What a hoot in the Crossfire. This car never has to kick down to a lower gear no matter what the hill.
For fun I dropped it into 4th from Drive and you can literally climb the steepest hill as quickly as you want without straining the motor at all. I also carefully logged the gas mileage on the return trip from Calgary to Vancouver and much to my surprise, even with all the hills, it got 35 mpg. (29 US. mpg.) That is amazing since I am lucky to break 20 mpg in the City.

Hi again fellow Alberta Crossfire owners. Any of you have plans for storage this winter? Mine is already put away. Car cover, fresh oil/filter,extra air in tires. Anyone have any other ideas? Also its parked inside my garage.

No problem in 5 years, I have even removed it and stored it in the basement (ventilated), No power stops the CPU and FSS,. Now I leave the battery insitu and charge it once a month before refiring the motor. Only problem I had (once) was the alarming going off during re-conection .
Time to shovel the drive and add mothballs to the cab(cockpit) and trunk(boot)

Now that has to be a british pint,cos its imperial measure and 20 oz, . When King George gave you your fredom ,your new masters realisedyou could only handle 16 oz at a time, and made 20% more with each pint spld
This should be on new thread

'05 Caravan, they'll be lining up for that one. Interesting though... I bought my '07 roadster new from a dealer in Regina in 2010 after reading a similar listing on their web site. They had it in stock for 3 years and never changed the posted price.
