How much does the engine of a Dodge Intrepid car cost?

I had to replace the engine in my 2002 Intrepid and it cost me a good $3,500. They have to match the year and vin number up with a compatible engine and the mechanic will need to tear the whole front end apart to lift the engine in/out. I can tell you there are very few engines left when I was searching for one a month ago.

How much to fix a head gasket on a 1996 dodge intrepid?

Most shops will charge $900.00 to a $1000.00, this is a lot of work. They basically have to tear apart the whole upper half of engine and replace all of the gaskets. Not to mention at that time it would be a good idea to do the valves, the gaskets would already come in the kit, so just the labor to change valve seats.

Replace oil dipstick tube?

DEPENDS ON THE MAKE AND MOTOR BUT MOST ARE A PRESS FIT INTO THE BLOCK WITH A RUBBER O RING AT THE BOTTEM. GOOD LUCK There should be a fastner that secures the tube assembly near the top of the engine. after this is removed you should be able to just pull the tube right out of engine, you may find it comes out better if you twist it while pulling.

On your 1998 Dodge Intrepid 2.7liter the inlet water housing its on top of the motor in front of the intake manifold top radiator hose connects to it keeps coming apart what causes this?

It was a horrible design. Its very typical on the 2.7's. The glued seam seperates and you will have to replace the water outlet. Not a 10 minute job either, you have to pull the plenum off to get at one of the screws.


How do you change 2004 Intrepid coolant air bleeder?

This part must be defective on this year intrepid because I've this part replaced twice this year and this last time it actually blew entirely apart leaving only the bleeder screw with a small piece of plastic. My advice is to have dodge repair it because it will most likely break again
