2005 Dodge Neon SE - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Get the code. Codes never tell you to change a sensor, they just indicate the problem circuit they are seeing. Only sometimes it is a failure of the sensor. You probably need test equipment like a digital voltmeter. Maybe join a neon forum to find out how others solved the problem.

Get the engine mounts checked. A bad mount may allow part of the engine to lie on a body or frame part, allowing engine vibrations to become very loud. Torquing of the engine (under load) can cause the same type problems.

It could be your timing belt .That would make it burn oil and the noise could be your valves hitting the pistons. Take the spark plugs out and see if they are black that will tele you if they are burning oil. The timing belt should be changed after 80,000 miles .

Engine running in park or neutral Check the transmission fluid level.

Good Morning , I went to auto zone library and found all the codes but I cant down load them all so please go to there site log in list your vehicle then go to repair guide follow drop down to vehicle repair guide click on that and you'll get a drop down go to diagnostics click on that then look to left and pick one and start look up I started at # 3, I really hope this helps you .

The Dodge Neon has an Interference engine. That means when the timing belt breaks, you likely have bent some valves. You will need to remove the head, and have the valves replaced. Best done by a qualified mechanic that knows how to replace the timing belt.

The front struts for a 2005 Dodge Neon are $66.99 each from Autozone. The part number is G55892 and they show as a stock item.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Programmateur De Calculateur

Hello mudpie67: My name is Roger and I will help with your question. The correct torque value for the camshaft gear is 115(n.m) or 85 (ft.lbs.) Should You need further help? Please just ask. Please rate the answer. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

Have you checked the usual issues? Battery in fob and engine connections, fuse boxes (probably 2 one interior and one in engine bay or trunk) do you have a second fob that you can try? If the buttons on the interior do not work then probably a fuse has blown or a relay in which some diagnostic troubleshooting will need to be started. A multimeter and jumper leads (not jumper cables to start a dead battery) will get you far enough. A schematic of the power locks will come in handy.

Question edited for clarity and format. Personal phone number removed. Fixya has 11 million views a year. How many do you want to phone you, 10 percent, 1 percent?? :>D Question moved to Dodge Neon category after adding the word 'Dodge'. Full year make model in all questions please. If the intake gasket had an air leak, it would cause rough idle and 'hunting'. This issue with the Dodge Neon is well publicized.

What is everything? What all test have you done?

Possible leaking cylinder head gasket.

p0456 is a code for the fuel evapoation system so it sounds like the fuel tank breather system is faulty try running with the fuel filler cap off to help diagnose the issue

fuel pump diafram weak

I have seen fuel pressure issues cause this. Fuel filter, or fuel pump. However, I have also seen the catalytic converter cause this issue. The honeycomb, located inside the catalytic converter, breaks up and will block the exhaust when you accelerate. Engine power is lost, until you let off the gas and let it idle. Then, the chunk falls down from the exhaust port, and it runs fine again. Until you get on the gas and increase the velocity of the exhaust, and the chunk blocks the exhaust gasses again. Good luck

OMG. sounds like you have issues. One of the wires must have rubbed through to ground. Start by replacing the wires. Then put in a factory switch.

I have seen voltage issues with my dodge stratus. The alternator was swinging the voltage high and low. That is not good for electronic items. Also, electronics do not function when the voltage gets below 10 to 11 volts. Ensure that your charging voltage is high enough and that the battery cables are clean and tight on the battery. Good luck.

It should only be one flasher. You do need to use the right bulb not something close. You could have a contact issue with the bulb or at a plug connection
