    Liquid Gold??

    Hi again, As I am still working on replacing all fluids of my recently purchased '98 RT/10 by myself, it's the gearbox I have a question about for today :smirk: I have read tons of threads here and elsewhere but still I am not 100% sure, which fluid to go for. My tranny has been factory...

    Mopar Performance Exhaust (Catback) anyone?

    Thanks for the info and vids! Sounds really good! How about drone at certain revolutions? According to my research so far, it seems that only the corsa is free of drone...?!? Holger

    Mopar Performance Exhaust (Catback) anyone?

    Inspired by the post of Jsquared I'd like to gather some feedback on the Mopar exhaust (the one that comes with the nice Sneaky Pete logo on the tips) with standard cats and/or with high flow cats. How about overall noise level and drone? Thanks for any response in form of writing or...

    Clear hood indicator lights

    I have seen that some Vipers (not too many) have clear indicator lights in the hood instead of the stock orange ones. Does anyone know, where to get them from? Thanks, Holger

    Heating Question

    Wow, that's fast!!! Typical Viper :) Thanks a lot for your answers, so it seems that everything is working fine! I read the owner's manual before but it does not say, that warm air will only come out of the defroster and/or knee bolster outlet... To all of you: Have a great Sunday and...

    Heating Question

    I recently noticed, that I am not able to get any warm air out of the 3 outlets in the middle of the the dash. Only if I switch to the outlets above (windshield) or below (foot area) I notice warm air coming out. Of course, I tried when engine was at normal operating temperature and heater...

    New question from the "Fluid Man" ;-)

    Just wanted to let you know, that I changed brake and clutch fluid today. I used the Mopar DOT 4 fluid. Everything went fine, but I don't feel/experience any difference when driving. The reservoir, however, looks much better (lighter) now. The old fluid looked very, very old. I hope, it wasn't...

    2001 Sapphire RT/10 looking for a good home

    Will check the German forums to see when the new owner shows up ;-) I was also close to buy a Viper that was listed here in the classifieds. However, I ended up in buying an RT/10 here in Germany, which was imported just last year from Missouri. So far, the car runs great and I hope, that there...

    2001 Sapphire RT/10 looking for a good home

    Ahhh, one Viper more in Germany, great!!! May I ask, if the car was sold to a private person or a dealership? Curious to see, where it will show up... Holger

    New question from the "Fluid Man" ;-)

    Hello everybody, After you have helped me a lot with my power steering fluid question, I do have another one :smirk:: This time it's about the brake fluid. I have noticed, that according to the instruction on the cap of the brake fluid reservoir, I should only fill in DOT3 fluid. In the...

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    Thanks again for all your help! When you speak about bottles, I guess these are 1 quart bottles (~ 1 Liter), right? So I need to get 2 more... Have a nice Sunday to all of you and take out your Viper for a nice Sunday afternoon cruise :drive: Holger

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    Now, can you also give some advise on the "best" method of flushing the system? The procedure described in the service manual seems quite complex and requires lifting the front wheels. Is there any easier method providing good results? Some of you seem to suck out the old fluid with a pump but...

    Here's now a picture (still without any Fräulein ;-))... PS: Sorry, but due to rezising to such a small format, the picture came out somewhat blurry... Holger

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    Hi Chuck, actually, I tried to post a pic in my last reply but the system was always complaining that I exceed my quota for a few bytes (although I resized the image a few times) and I gave up :( But yes, it is a very nice Viper indeed ;), also because it's my first Viper (a fulfillment of...

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    First: a big thanks to all of you for your valuable input, much appreciated :2tu: So, here's what I will do: 1. Check PS system for leaks (before I bought the car I inspected it from underneath, I didn't find any leaks which doesn't mean that there is none :rolleyes:). The fluid level is...

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    Thanks Tony and Steve, Do you think, I can "top" the Redline fluid with some of the MS-5931 to achieve the proper level? Or do I have to flush the complete system? Holger

    Power Steering Fluid MY 1998

    Good Afternoon, I guess, as a new Viper owner I need some help from the experienced ones like (most of) you. I wanted to add some PS fluid since the level in the reservoir is a bit too low. I searched the web to find out, which fluid to buy (service manual does not say explicitly, which one I...

    Couple Questions on 01 GTS

    One remark: colors for MY01 include yellow, red and saphire blue, if I am not mistaken. So this one might be either MY00 (steelgray) or MY02 (graphite)!?!? Or am I completely wrong? Holgi

    What's different with a European GTS?

    Thanks to the friends from UK :uk: I couldn't really believe that it's just because of measuring the power somewhat differently... :cool: I guess, I would also prefer the US version but if there will be a good opportunity for a european GTS I would take it as well. Finally, the overall...

    What's different with a European GTS?

    I am trying to find out, what exactly Chrysler changed to "convert" a US car (450 hp) into the official european/german version of the GTS? I am mainly looking for changes applied to engine/powertrain, not so much for the "obvious" (visible) changes. However, for the latter ones I have figured...

    Hood Difference GTS

    Thanks to all for your valuable feedback, much appreciated :1up: So, it seems that the 99 hood might still be stock. One other thing I noticed just know looking at the pics again (don't know why I haven't noticed earlier :brick:): the brake caliper of the 2000 GTS is red and not black. I...

    Hood Difference GTS

    Hello All, I am not yet an owner but like some others I am looking to buy my first Viper this year. My dream is the GTS coupe and I am observing the market here in Germany and also in the US since quite some time. Just recently I figured a certain difference between 2 GTS coupes, one MY 1999...

    Where is the VIN number

    Rainer, The VIN is also attached to the frame at 2 different places (one at front and one at rear end). Unfortunately, I do not have a drawing at hand but I remember that there is one in the Viper Buyer's Guide. Viele Grüsse nach Österreich! Holgi

    This car looks like a steal to me...

    Provided, that car is technically ok (looks spectacular though), I would pay 37,500 US$. Unfortunately, I do not have the money at this moment at hand ;-( Cheers, Holgi
