2000 Dodge Intrepid, when I turn on the car the lights flicker but it won't turn over. no clicking sound. The cd player starts making noises.

Is this a battery problem or altenator problem?

It sounds like the battery is flat, this could be because the alternator has not charged it or something has drained the battery or the battery is faulty! What lights are flickering? We're any dash lights on prior to you not being able to start the car?

I have 04 dodge Intrepid and it won't start. I

When you say won't start do you mean it will crank over but not fire off or do you mean it doesn't' turn over at all? We refer to this a "No crank no start" or "Cranks will not start"

We seen to get a lot of those cars with that issue lately

I don't know the reason, but it won't be fixable without some
major head removal & whatever the dealers & aftermarket
have come up with to solve.

Bad engine design I suspect

All interior lights flicker while driving & in park

I would check your fuse board for a loose fuse or wire to it from the battery as sometimes vibration loosens terminals eric

2000 dodge intrepid clicking noise when apply brakes

It is probable that one or more sets of brake pads are worn down. The clicking noise is the wear indicators letting you know.

The knocking sound is possibly worn rear suspension bushes at some point, but I don't know your model well enough to say where.

2002 dodge intrepid clicks and wont start

it is not uncommon for a failing starter to make a click noise, but check other things before jumping into that, clean the battery terminals, have the battery tested, make sure you are getting power to the starter and have a good ground.

Loud clicking/clanking noise on 200 Intrepid

Sounds like the motor is going out. 2.7s are bad about rod bearings going out. If you don't use the correct weight oil, and change it every 3K, they don't hold up too well.
