Am I getting ripped off?

Q: i cant imagine replacing the water pump without replacing the bypass hose. to replace the water pump on a gasoline powered 99 you have to remove the bypass hose from the water pump. the hose should cost a few dollars tops. i recently had major repairs to my 99 dodge ram 2500. i had the timing chain cover and gears water pump and thermostat replaced as well as a coolant system flush among multiple other repairs. today 250 miles later i spring an antifreeze leak. the guy says that the bypass hose in the thermostat housing is what sprung a leak and is not related to the repairs already performed. my question is shouldnt they have inspected the hose when the water pump and thermostat were replaced any ideas .

nosey wrote your heating up everything that has electrical resistance. if you dim your dashboard lights you may notice that the dimmer switch gets warmer. same phenomenon. ask nosey. read sterns page about relays. no need to ask me anything. i think azwiley1 knows more about electricity than the both of us. doubtful... what ever little do you know about me or my back ground. have you measured the resistance levels on the silvys lighting circuit he apparently thinks chevy and dodge can each use different versions of ohms law. no i dont think that nor did i imply that. i did ask you though if you knew the resistance of the silvy lighting circuit which you did not answer. obviously you dont know. stock for stock how do you know that the resistance in your ram was not equal to greater or less then that of my chevy you dont. so to imply that the resistance of my lighting circuit is as restrictive as you seem to be implying is ludacris. you cant substanciate it. wire gauge wire run lenght relays etc all factor into the resistance level of the circuit but gee you should know that right do you know what the resistance levels are on each of the four bulbs i know i dont off the top of my head as i have never had a reason to measure it. it needs to be calculated but he apparently thinks you can get something meaningful by measuring the resistance across a cold bulb. where did i ever state anything about measuring a bulb warm or cold i stated just want you left in place above. so please dont put words where they are not. my point which you apparently over looked or missed you must be practicing buddism! is that you nor i know the resistance of the lighting circuit on the silvy. which means that to back up your statements concerning bulb life heating of the wires et all. are not substantiated. you are making assumptions not verified statements. pointing back to dans website. have you or anyone ever ask how he verified his data not saying it is not correct but was the data complied from manufactures from a test bench from real world applications or from all of the mentioned .

my 97 had the same problem. it was the fuel shut off . it is a electric magnet on the pump when the key is turned on it lifts the shut off lever up to open the fuel valve. when it happened to me i reached under the pump with the key on and pushed up on the leaver and it then moved on its own got in truck and turned key rest of the way started right up every time. new shut off #300.00 have heard of people removing it and hooking a choke cable to it and ruining into cab to open and close valve. .

i did a quick search online and found them ranging in price from $14.99 to $4.59. given the hourly rate for an automotive technician to get that far into this repair the difference between $2 and $15 at the high end is insignificant and not replacing it makes me suspect the technician in question. before the repair was even started he should have said lets replace all your belts and hoses because it will cost you less now than later and she could have made up her own mind. i dont think toms statement is the least suspect. on thu 25 jan 2007 031734 gmt tom lawrence tnloaswpraemnmcien5g@earthlink.net wrote bullshit. no mechanic in his right mind would replace a water pump and re-use a $2 hose. does a by-pass hose really cost $2.00 or is that hyperbole there-by making the rest of your statement suspect bb .

that is why any good service writer or mechanic should package in those lower cost parts that are know to cause problems as part of the job especially for any vehicle as old as a 99. the customer knows the cost up front and knows you are a pro-active service center. you send the job out knowing that the probability of that vehicle coming back with a related failure is very low you make alittle money off the part and labor without raping the cust. there are no come backs and everybody is happy. it is called service and in my opinion sending out any job with even a slightly questionable part with out atleast contacting the cust is not considered service. you would think that shops would be trying to find all the work they can thats how they make money. i think any person would rather say that there repair cost alittle more than they expected then say that after spending all that money they still had problems and had to take there vehicle back to the shop. makes no sense to me. .

electrician electrician@xo.com stated which i commented on below i dont know about previous years or other models but i know in the 2007 dakota you can get heated cloth seats. i have to assume they are also available on other 2007 dodge trucks and cars as well. i would think the only reason they didnt offer them in previous years was because cloth was the standard choice whereas leather was the premium selection. if you werent going to pay for the leather seats then you probably wouldnt want to pay for the heated seat option either. just my guess. that makes sense. i thought it may have been a fire hazard or something. thanks! ace .

on my personal vehicles im working on no way in the world would i fail to replace that pita hose. but from my production mechanic days yes i do see the reasons for not doing it if it looks okay. please remember all of my comments are predicated on if it looks okay! see above again if you forget. 1. production the customer has to be contacted to get approval. very slow for almost no money. think about it you cant put it back together while youre waiting for approval. if you do it without approval youll get hammered for unnecessary work. if the customer asks for the old parts and it looks okay youll be busted for unnecessary work. some people would demand their money back in that situation. 2. self interest if it fails theyll be back and youll get paid again. bear in mind these arent my reasonings theyre just things i picked up on in a few years of mechanic work. also note im not in that line of work anymore. i dont like production mechanic work. i used to enjoy working on my own stuff but im older now and just as soon let someone else fool with anything major these days. i cant even justify the $10 i save on oil changes vs. the hour it takes me to do one at home from start to cleaned up. so were you ripped off no i dont think so. i think it was just bad luck. that hose on my wifes 93 ramcharger yes a magnum engine like in your 99 lasted 180000 miles. my 93 ramcharger is at 150000 miles on the original hoses. why yes i have adopted the if it aint broke dont fix it attitude glad you asked. but when i do fix things i do it all so it doesnt have to be done again like that stinking little pita hard to get to hose. now that ive covered the stinking little pita hose to death did you know the leak might be the intake gasket and not related to the infamous stinking little hose until you can get it apart you cant be certain. that happened to the wifes 93 ramcharger as well. i cant imagine replacing the water pump without replacing the bypass hose. to replace the water pump on a gasoline powered 99 you have to remove the bypass hose from the water pump. the hose should cost a few dollars tops. i recently had major repairs to my 99 dodge ram 2500. i had the timing chain cover and gears water pump and thermostat replaced as well as a coolant system flush among multiple other repairs. today 250 miles later i spring an antifreeze leak. the guy says that the bypass hose in the thermostat housing is what sprung a leak and is not related to the repairs already performed. my question is shouldnt they have inspected the hose when the water pump and thermostat were replaced any ideas .

as an after thought you might look into whether or not they even replaced the water pump. the water pump should be easy to find because the hose that comes off of the bottom of the radiator goes into the water pump and the hose from the top of the radiator goes to the thermostat housing just above the cut off hose in question. the cut off hose is a molded piece with a 90 degree turn and has just enough rubber to connect it at either end. the water pump and thermostat housing will be behind a bracket and you may need a flashlight and/or mirror to see in there. look for new hose clamps and clean new gasket and/or silicon sealing compound between the water pump and engine block this may be very difficult to see. im not suggesting the mechanic in question defrauded you but if you suspect fraud and arent experienced enough to tell the difference between old and 250 mile old parts take it to another mechanic for a diagnosis. i cant imagine replacing the water pump without replacing the bypass hose. to replace the water pump on a gasoline powered 99 you have to remove the bypass hose from the water pump. the hose should cost a few dollars tops. i recently had major repairs to my 99 dodge ram 2500. i had the timing chain cover and gears water pump and thermostat replaced as well as a coolant system flush among multiple other repairs. today 250 miles later i spring an antifreeze leak. the guy says that the bypass hose in the thermostat housing is what sprung a leak and is not related to the repairs already performed. my question is shouldnt they have inspected the hose when the water pump and thermostat were replaced any ideas .

you do mean not listen to you and your lack of maturity right no im pretty sure denny meant that people should not listen to you and your inane drivel. i would concur with that assessment whole-heartedly. dodges are know for these kinda of problems agreed... sort of. i dont know if id go so far as to say theyre known for it but it is a very common problem. one with a very simple solution that doesnt necessitate throwing the baby out with the bathwater so to speak. the sand you would know about it. this is not about picking on a dodge because i point out quirks with gms and fords too. sure - just like we all point out your quirks errors mis-statements and general lack of knowledge on various subjects. were building quite a list... is to avoid trouble prone vehicle and model regardless of who makes then rather than pouring more money into them. in cases of chronic problems you may be right. but in this case the op has a bad wheel speed sensor - which she can cure for less than $50. your advice to trade the vehicle is so over the top stupid that i have trouble believing anyone would suggest such.... then i look at the person suggesting it and it all makes perfect sense. .

since the upgrade the xtravisions have already surpassed the poor silver stars meager lifetime. and the trucks original 6-year-old 9004 bulbs are doing fine as inboard high beams. well i guess since i dont drive a dodge i drive a silvy that was factory with the dual headlight set up and i use the 9005 & 9006 series bulbs i dont have to worry about anything. i guess it just boils down to using what ever works for you. shame though that dodge had such a poor design on the head lights. while i dont remember the year of your chevy in the late 90s if you got the standard cheyenne trim level you got the old h 6054 lights. somewhat equivalant to the standard dodge lights vs. the sport lights but even with that said its inexcusable to have to pay extra to get adequate lighting. i think the original intrepid lights were even worse. .

azwiley1 wrote since the upgrade the xtravisions have already surpassed the poor silver stars meager lifetime. and the trucks original 6-year-old 9004 bulbs are doing fine as inboard high beams. well i guess since i dont drive a dodge i drive a silvy that was factory with the dual headlight set up and i use the 9005 & 9006 series bulbs i dont have to worry about anything. i guess it just boils down to using what ever works for you. shame though that dodge had such a poor design on the head lights. its a shame you missed the point. when your silver stars last for 4 years that doesnt indicate that your chevy has a nice light circuit design. it indicates that youre spending watts to heat up wires instead of filaments. .

on jan 25 1035 pm yabahoobs chendrik...@gmail.com wrote well...theyre not all going at once...if they did that would suggest theyre all on the same circuit and failure is happening behind that. so hopefully its not a faulty computer... regardless electrical issues are pretty tough to deal with. probably best to take it to your local dodge dealership. in my 2003 those things are on the same circuit so it may just be a fuse. on my truck if youre standing in front with the cover off the fuse box its the fourth one from the right drivers side on the front row. if this fuse blows the abs stops working the speedo stops working and the warning lights you mention all come on. additionally the a/c condenser fan under the hood near the radiator turns on and runs when its not supposed to be running. ive heard that some guys who race their trucks pull this fuse to temporarily block the top-speed limiter by disabling the speedo. could it be your husband did this before he left and either 1 forgot to replace it 2 accidentally put it back in one of the empty fuseholder positions or 3 was in a hurry and didnt push it in all the way martin .

yes it was a typo. if they dont make it right after the second rate job they did the first time... -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving i couldnt resist... i hope you have a typo. if they make it right youd never again deal with them editting verb - the act of changing a well thought out argument in to the exact opposite of what was intended. i would tell then that if they do make it right with you considerable discount that you will never deal with them again and make it well known to your friends of their second rate work. word of mouth advertising works both ways. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving i really appreciate the information from all of you who replied. i got a call from the mechanic this morning. they say that the hose could have gone at anytime and i am responsible for parts $6.50 for the kit and labor $74.50 an hour. i do understand that the need for a hose being replaced is objective view of the mechanic but considering i just shelled out $3000 last wednesday for all the other repairs i guess i am just little pissy about paying them anymore money. especially considering they placed new parts on either side of an old hose. i am by no means very mechanically inclined but even i know that old hoses dont hold up to new parts very well. so thanks again for your help. .
