the easiest way to do it is to remove the trans. make sure not to break any sensors off they cost alot to replace. while you have the trans off make sure you rear main is not leaking, it is not that hard to change and it may be worth it to do it just because you have the trans off. mech mas.
Well I have a 99 Dodge Avenger ES and I've put 3 trannys in it already, so this one should be easy. If your set-up is the same you should have a crossmember that mounts with two bolts in the front and one in back. there is a motor mount connected to it. take all this off. then you can pretty easily access your starter which is located beside your oil pan at the rear of the motor on the front side of the car. there are 4/5 bolts you have to remove. I belive there are two you have two remove from the backside and three from the front side. I hope i could help you out its hard to walk someone through it but once you do it, you'll be able to do it with your eyes closed. I just changed the starter on my wife's avenger. It's not too difficult, but it takes some time, especially for a shade tree mechanic. You must get the vehicle high enough to use a creeper because you have to move around alot under the car. In my case I thought for sure it was a starter solenoid gone bad but that was not the case, so make sure that the starter is the problem. Disconnect battery, remove oil filter, disconnect exhaust at the header, front and rear, remove heat shield, disconnect cable from starter. The starter bolts up at three points through the flywheel case in a semicircular pattern, the bolts are 15mm. One of the bolts is in recessed area and is difficult to reach, a ratchet and socket won't fit, either a small breakover or offset wrench is required. Good luck.
Hey Sheri==First remove the negative battery cable then remove the wires from the starter then the bolts and work it out. GoodluckJoe
Disconnect thre neg battery cable then the starter wires. Takeout the mounting bolts and remove it.
Remove the positive battery cable from your 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan battery. Remove the cables from the starter. Remove the retaining bolts from the starter. The starter will come off.
Locate the relay/fuse center under the hood, remove relay/fuse center cover, pull out the starter relay and replace it with a new one. It is seldom the relay is at fault.
Driver side of the engine. look reward of the motor mount.
You must first remove the bolts that hold the sway bar to the engine cradle to swing it back out of the way. You must also remove the engine to transmission brackets to access some of the oil pan bolts. Then you will be able to remove all bolts and drop the pan.
Although a car starter is a great concept, I definitely would not install it in a 1999 Intrepid. I have a 99 Intrepid, and have heard that that year was the worst for the Intrepid. I have had nothing but problems with my car, and have spoken to others with the same model and year as mine. A car starter can totally screw up the mechanics of a car, especially one with such a bad rep. Another thing is that if you need a starter, I would probably get a professional to do it. They might offer you some kind of a warranty.
you shouldn't just follow your coolant hose

The best way that I have found to remove the starter is to purchase or go to your local library and check out a copy of the Haines manual. I have used it to remove alternator, ECM, and the instrument cluster.
