Direct ALL questions to the SRT Team AND allow the SRT Team to answer ALL questions (no member discussions here; posts removed)
Review existing posts to avoid repeats of a same question
Limit each post to 1 or 2 questions and be as brief and clear as possible, including SRT model your question references
Allow time for a response - questions are not answered in order of post. If it appears you were missed, AND the same question was not previously answered for someone else, you may re-post before the session ends
The SRT Team cannot answer questions about future product
I just turned 4000km's (2400 miles) on my 2008 GC SRT8 a couple of days ago. My change oil indicator came on as well.
The extended warranty for my 2005 300CSRT8 gives me 20 "free" oil changes over 5 years and I took out the same plan for the Jeep.
I was surprised I only get 12 oil changes over 5 years. When I asked the service manager about this he told me the oil "analysing" sensor would prolong the interval between changes. This seems not to be the case and is well under 3000 miles when it went off.
Can you tell me exactly how this sensor works and do I really need to change my oil so soon? I know the procedure to reset it though.
I also have a question for Gordon or the Kicker engineer about the dual 10" Kicker SW. I'll hold that question till I find out if either are in this evening. Thanks!
Bernie

Why does the Challenger SRT have 20” wheels? Is it a top end thing? Wouldn’t 18” wheels be better for better torque and quicker acceleration?
Would installing a license plate bracket above the front SRT Challenger’s spoiler (to avoid drilling holes in the bumper) cause over-heating problems? See the following photos:
Hello SRT guys. I say thanks for the Caliber SRT4 S1 addition. It seems that there are no units available to order. I am ordered with payment but no fills. ordered 10/29 billed 10/30 and waiting. Is all well ?

First, thanks for building the Challenger SRT 6 speed, this is the most fun I've had with a car ever. ( 800kms and a hundred smiles) I'm curious if the following rumour on the forums is true. That there is some form of performance limiter that protects the vehicle during it's "break in" period. If so, how does the limiter decide when the " break in" is done? Mileage or hours. Or is this "break in" limiter urban myth?
1. Will the 6.1 engine get an overhaul (better heads, etc) similar to what the 5.7 received? - If so when?
2. Will the 6.4 Hemi make it into production for the 2009 model year?
3. I spoke to Mopar at SEMA – they indicated they are working on a Mopar branded supercharger option for the Challenger – Will the supercharger make it into production for the 2009 model year?
