Re: Mechanical Issues
Yea, set aside the first few days of October and come to Fontana Lodge with us, you will learn more about that car in a weekend than you would think possible.
What I would do if I were you:
Search "Sticky Key" here on the forum, print the procedure and DO IT TODAY.
Order a spare Crank Position Sensor and keep it in the trunk - get this one:
https://www.germanautosupply.com/sto...sensor-95.html
(The website will say that it does not fit the Crossfire - but it does. I'm carrying my second spare right now.)
Beware that an old or older battery can really cause odd issues. If the battery is over four years old, either replace it now or at least keep in mind that all sorts of weird stuff can start happening only because of a flaky battery. (Shop labor is $90 or so an hour, don't waste a lot of money on diagnostics when the battery is old.)
