How do you replace the float in a 2005 dodge magnum gas tank?
There are two. They are accessible from under the rear seat cushion with special tools.
What does sxt stand for on the dodge magnum?

Dodge magnum B223D what do i need to do to get rid of it?
"B223D OCM DTC PRESENT" I get this code for air bag sys. ocm stand for occupant classification module, Bob... I just received the same code as well as B1BA6. These codes go together and show that the passenger seat sensor for the airbag needs to be recallibrated. This needs to be done by a dealership as they have the special set of calibrated weights and can run the tests to be sure it is done correctly. This ran me just over $50 to be repaired.
Dodge Magnum door panel removal?
Gently pry the TWO screw covers off. One is round, it is behind the inside the interior latch (you grab to make door release). The second is rectangular and below the grab handle that you pull on to shut the door. Unscrew the two screws behind the covers, then unscrew the screws at the bottom of the door (these are hard to see because they are very low.) The screws are all phillips bit #2 and the same length (thank you GM) so you don't have to keep track of which one goes where, just don't lose any.
Next comes the specialty fasteners...
The top left and top right fasteners hold the upper trim on which usually doesn't need to come off. If your car is like mine, the door panels are two-tone with the darker part on top and you won't have to mess with the pop-fasteners in the top half. The front doors have three lighter-color pop-fasteners each. If you look closely, you will notice there is a circle inside each. Gently push on the inner circle with something like a wood dowel (hard, but not prone to damaging soft plastic) until it pops in slightly and releases the tension. CAREFULLY wiggle a small flat-head screwdriver under the outer circle then GENTLY pry them up. These are reusable as long as you are careful and don't force them.
Now comes the fun part. There are three hidden "christmas tree" fasteners at the top that you need to pop free. Slowly pull the door panel out and slightly up using the door handle. Work your fingers between the top of the panel and door on one side and gently but firmly pull out until one of the fasteners pops free, then do the other side, then put your hands behind both sides and pull to pop the middle one. When all three are released, you will have to hold the panel in the air close to where it was before you popped the clips (it's easiest to hold the handle) while you do the following:
1-Release the red door handle release clip and then the rod that it holds in place. The clip rotates out and is retained on the door panel, if it comes off, you broke it. The rod lifts straight up easily.
2-Pull out a small retainer that holds the wiring harness to the panel. The retainer is stuck to the wiring harness and will not come off.
3-Push the release tab that secures the connectors to the switches and pull the connectors out while the tab is pushed in. (One at a time.)
The "circle" clips can be reset by pushing the center post back out and some of it sticks out. Before you put it all back together, play with them to find the point where the assembly fits in the hole. When you reassemble the door, just push the post back in to the point that they are flush (like before you started this adventure.)
You will probably need to buy an "upholstery clip removal tool" to remove the "christmas tree" fasteners from the door. Every auto parts store carries this, they look like a snake tongue with a handle and they are usually about $10. I have never needed this tool to remove clips on any other car I have taken apart (20 or so), but the clips in the Magnum are TIGHT and will break if you don't use this tool to remove them. Follow the instructions on the tool to remove the clips. The clips have to be inserted into notches on the panel to put the panel back on the door. You will see where the "button" head of the clips slide and click into little notches on the panel.
Other than putting the Christmas tree clips into the panel first, assembly is reverse of removal. Take your time, don't forget to plug the wire harnesses back in to the switches and you should be OK!
NO
Is it okay to put 10w-30 oil in my 2004 dodge ram 1500 5.7L hemi 4x4?
sure.
If the oil cap recommends 5w20, I would stay with 5w20.
2005 dodge magnum stuck in park?
I had a similar problem while out of town so I know how frustrating it can be. The bad case scenerio you blew your transmission & the gears are locked. Few questions you should ask yourself........ When you step on the brake does the automatic safety release if so it could be as simple burnt out shift wire that needs to be replaced or your shifter itself as was the case in my Magnum. The shifter is very badly designed (dodge is aware of this) & is made out of plastic which over time doesn't hold up very well. The shifter has a small hook that attaches to a spring which releases the automatic transmission lock if the hook broke the signal is being sent but the spring is no longer releasing your transmission. Try using the backup transmission lock release valve that is on the side of the shifter you will have to remove the coin tray once you do there's a gap with a lever that you push if you still can't shift be sure take it to a transmission specialist
Why would the cruise control not work when the check engine light comes on?
Because whatever has caused the light to come on also effects the cruise from working properly. Have the system checked for codes.

1996 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L Magnum V8 milage?
I don't have a Ram, I drive a Dakota, but it has the same engine. On the highway, I can expect 19 MPG max on a good day. In a Ram 1500, depending on the trim level and cab style, you can expect a maximum of 19 mpg highway and probably 14 or lower city. If your truck is lifted, maybe 17 highway and 10 city.

The Dodge Magnum DRL (Daytime Running Lights) is not enabled for U.S. market as a standard delivery item. You can take your car to any DCX dealer and their service department can enable them using a computer called a Starscan. It is very simple to do and some will do it for free, but look in the $50.00 range as a fee.
Which is faster a 1996 Impala SS or a 2005 Dodge Magnum?
A stock 1996 Impala SS came with a 5.7 Liter LT1 V8 - 260 horsepower and 330 lb.-ft. of torque. It ran a 15.4 second quarter mile, and did 0-60 mph in 7.2 seconds.
A stock 2005 Dodge Magnum RT comes with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 - 340 horsepower and 390 lb.-ft. of torque. It runs a 14.7 second quarter mile and does 0-60 mph in 6.3 seconds.
The Dodge wins.
The Magnum R/T will win stock for stock every time. The Magnum R/T does NOT come with a manual transmission. Only a 5-speed automatic with the autostick function. True the Impalla can be modified and most probably are, but so can the Magnum, and then we aren't comparing apples to apples anymore. If you want to compare more similar vehicles, then lets compare a 1996 Impalla SS with a '98-'04 Dodge Dakota R/T. And yes, while the Dakota is a truck, the performance between the Impalla SS and the Dakota R/T is closer. Stock for stock, a race between an Impalla SS and a Dakota R/T will all depend on the driver. And the Dakota R/T takes to mods the same as the Impalla. Handling is also very similar.
True, the Magnum is faster. No doubt. It only took one of the big three 12 years to do so (first year of production on the Impala SS was 1994 and in their times and hp didnt change. Ive owned one of each and with a 12 year jump, don't you think that most Impala SS cars are hiding more under the hood - I'll auto cross a magnum to death in my 1996 Impala. And, to date I only have about 12K invested including purchase price(used. No I didnt wreck the 94 and 95. I sold them to friends.
The Magnum has 3 trim levels, the R/T is faster but the other 2 are not.
The Chevy can make almost as much power with intake and exhaust mods and 1.6 roller rockers. It can also be faster ( than stock ) with a different axle ratio. However, the dodge has a 5 speed tranny and it also weighs slighty less. Nevertheless, the Chevy is much cheaper even with mods and the overall performance can be made comparable to the dodge. I won't sell my 95 Lt-1 Chevy caprice wagon and I don't like the windows on the dodge.
