I have to ask... why HOAT and not reg. antifreeze
Just to clarify: G05 coolant IS ethylene glycol based. The only alternative is propylene glycol, which is only used in a very few brands. HOAT refers to the additive package (Hybrid Organic Acid Technology), not the base fluid.- belvedere

13mpg normal?
Our 25 mpg was a best for us. It was when we were on vacation a couple years back. We were out of state, the speed limit was 55, and I didn't want a ticket, so I set the cc at just under 60 and drove. I'm sure that had alot to do with it. Also, I had just put new plugs in it and changed all...- belvedere

13mpg normal?
We've seen up to 25 mpg on the highway in our 06 Sport 3.7/auto/4x4. Typical hwy mpg is probably closer to 22. Driving habits make a huge difference. One person's "gentle driving" may be completely different than another's. One other thought: on a higher-mileage vehicle, a lazy O2 sensor...- belvedere

Gearing up to change trans fluid...
1. As mmc said, opinions vary. Personally, I do a pan drop. 2. Any approved ATF+4 is fine. Here's the list right from Chrysler themselves: http://www.centerforqa.com/licensedatf4brands.html 3. If the filter was replaced at the last fluid change, it's fine. Otherwise, replace it. If...- belvedere

5w30 to 5w40
You could certainly run the 5W40, and it may not be ideal (maybe slightly less mpg), but sure wouldn't hurt anything. If you feel uneasy about it, run it in the warmer months, or mix it 50/50 with 5W30 and run it year-round. In the end, do what makes you comfortable. When you ask a question...- belvedere

keyless entry
Problem solved. I posted over on Allpar, and someone asked me if the chime sounds with the driver door open. Yes, it does, indicating that it was sensing the key in the lock all the time. I had been wondering about this, but figured the two were unrelated, since the remote problem was...- belvedere

Thanks for the reply, but like I said, we are having the same problem w/ both remotes, so I don't think the problem is the remotes. Anyone else?- belvedere

keyless entry
We're having problems with the keyless entry on our '06 Sport. Starting last night, it only works intermittently (this affects all functions: lock, unlock, and rear glass). At first I thought it was my remote battery, so I changed it, but the problem remains. The same thing happens with my...- belvedere

rebuilt tranny problems
TwoBobs is absolutely correct: the wrong fluid in a Chrysler trans can definitely cause problems. If he didn't use ATF+4 (Dexron + a "fluid converter" is NOT acceptable), a complete fluid change is in order. Sounds like he isn't too knowledgeable about Chrysler trannies.- belvedere
