2004 Dodge Neon - Page 8 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
My 2004 Neon shakes between 35-40 mph, what should I do?
There isn't alot you can do to fix this kind of problem on your own. This is either happening because your tires are out of balance, out of round, or the alignment is out. If a tire is out of round it will need to be replaced. If the tires are newer, but out of balance it's easy enough to have a shop balance and rotate them at a low cost. An alignment can usually be checked for free at Firestone, or Sears. To my knowledge Firestone is the ONLY place still offering lifetime alignments.

WHAT IS MAKING MY 04 NEON VIBRATE SO MUCH??? ITS
It's your motor & transmission mounts - relatively inexpensive. Here is where you can get all 4 mounts for your car - AUTOMATIC transmission:
http://dodge-car-parts.yogiautoparts.com...If you feel like reading, here is a bit of information about the function of these mounts on a car:
The
purpose of engine motor transmission mounts: Most mounts made of metal
and rubber, many newer model mounts are filled with hydraulic fluid,
some advance hydraulic mounts come with electronic variable speed
control by ECM engine control module. The basic design are the same to
support between engine, transmission and subframe. They work hard to
keep engine and transmission running smooth minimizing the amount of
rattling and vibration from acceleration and stops. At the same time
mounts are supporting all major power train systems keeping all
mechanical components in balance level and position. Motor mounts are
extremely important vehicle parts that stabilize and align a vehicle
engine inside the engine compartment. Although small in size and
relatively cheap in cost, motor mounts can cause tremendous mechanical
problems if they break or go bad. Engine motor mounts are small parts
that are used to stabilize and properly align a vehicle engine. When
motor mounts go bad, they can cause a variety of symptoms, ranging from
mechanical damage to excessive engine noise.

Transmission not shifting
Hello
The
engine and the automatic transmission in this vehicle are computer
controlled and in most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is
stored in the memory of the computer control module. There are
exception to this, such as the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure
problems. What must be done is to have all the basic testing done
such as a scan of the system for fault codes as well as a check with
a live data scanner tool for engine functions that are not within
range of normal, a trained technician is required to know what is
correct and what isn't, then based on careful diagnostics done from
a factory repair manual the correct part is replaced or the wiring
repaired or the computer replaced (known as the PCM), which is very
rarely the problem. Other basic checks must be done as well such as
mechanical problems with the engine as well as engine state of tune
and mileage on the engine. The transmission can have mechanical
issues as well such as no gear engagement at all or a failed pump or
other pressure related problems.

Won't start sometimes
A mechanic would check for voltage at the starter, the neutral safety switch, and the key switch when it will not crank.
