Hey guys just wondering if anyone can give me some help with this. My Durango is a 2017 3.6L AWD with (from my research) what is the 845RE transmission. It has 81,500 miles and the transmission is on its way out. When it isn’t in limp mode it won’t go past 6th gear and shifts hard. It gives me...

So I am replacing the cooler lines since they were rusty and leaking. Unbolted them from the tranny and disconnected from the radiator. First was seized in the tranny so I broke it and got it out and the second line snapped where it was rusted when removing but it’s all out. I CANT GET THE NEW...

Posting here in hopes someone else had this issue and found a solution. Few weeks ago my DD wouldn't shift from 3rd to 4th and clunked, then the engine light came on and it went into limp mode. This was in the first 3 minutes of driving from a cold start. After stopping and checking fluids...

Hello all, New Durango owner here. I recently bought my 02 r/t and it has a slight shifting issue and I'm trying to figure out if this somewhat normal or what it could possibly be. 1) Under normal acceleration it shifts through all the gears perfectly(when cold). when it heats up, the...

Hello, New to the forum but have a burning question. How do you remove the torque converter dust cover from a 2006 5.7 hemi 4x4 engine? I have lifted the transmission as far as it can go to the point of almost crushing the pan. I have lifted the motor as far up as I can. I have removed the rack...

Hey Guys and Girls First post on this forum as i recently purchased a 2002 Dodge Durango with a low 100k miles and i got i for a killer deal, with a catch, it has some minor issues that i am working on. I needed to replace the radiator and transmission oil cooler lines as they were original...

Hello all, New member here. I just purchased a 2002 Durango RT with 144,000 miles and only two previous owners. It had only been driven by a mom most recently and was serviced regularly by a shop. I test drove it and everything worked great and seemed fine. So I thought I was set However...

I currently have a 44re in my 1998 d with a 5.2 I do a good bit of towing and my trans just went out so while I’m replacing it I would like to go ahead and purchase a more stout trans with a good warranty. Any suggestions?

Hi, I have a 2008 Durango SXT 4x4 with 148k mi on it and no fluids have ever been changed other than the engine oil. Everything is working fine but the fact that this maintenance has been so badly neglected is really bothering me. We paid it off recently and I'd like to take care of it better...

Hello, Ive been reading through forums and chats for the past 3 days and have yet to find an answer to my problem. But here it is, maybe someone here is a wizard. So I have a 2000 Slt Durango magnum 4.7, has the nv233 transfer case and he 45rfe tranny i believe. Maybe the other way around...

Hey Guys, I have an 05 4.7L ST with 123k miles on it. Recently it started dying when I decelerated and came to a complete stop. Sometimes while idling the rpm's would fluctuate between 500-1,000 while just sitting at a red light. I scanned it and got a whole laundry list. Some of the...

Purchased this vehicle used. Has 35000 miles. In the 3 months I have owned it on 3 occaisions it won't shift into gear. If I move the selector to reverse or drive I get a flashing R or D. If I shut the car off for 20 minutes or so everything returns to normal. Any suggestions?

I have a 1999 Dodge Durango 4x4 Magnum 5.9L that was given to me by my father-in-law that is starting to become more of a project than I was initially lead to believe. It was stuck in limp mode and had a CEL when I got it, and the codes it gave pointed to replacing the Control Solenoid and...

I have a 2012 Durango Citadel, 5.7 hemi AWD. I was going down the interstate, pulling my camper, and the BRAKE warning light came on. Steady on, not flashing. And now the vehicle makes this strange clicking sound going down the road. The noise speeds up and slows down with the speed of the...

My 12 RT was taken into dealership with it stuck in 4th gear. Needed the transmission solenoid, they replaced it, charged for fluid and filters. The next line on the work order was a transmission flush, new fluid and filters. Another $174. My questions is, did they have to do the flush again, or...

I want your guys' much valued opinion before I go out and get a new governor sensor and solenoid. My Durango is a 1999 SLT 4x4 with the 5.9l V8. 162,xxx on the odometer. It doesn't like to get out of first gear. But it's not like the transmission is slipping. It just won't shift out of...

Hello, i have a 2004 durango with a 4.7 liter engine and i was wondering if there was anyway i can put a manual transmission in it. Like, would the 2004 dakota tranny fit? or what Thanks:D

My husband and I bought a 2006 model (4.7 V8 2wd) back in September. We recently had to replace the transmission but the port for the dipstick tube on the new one is too small for the tube and seal. When the new transmission arrived it had a plastic plug in the port for the tube. We put the plug...
