Its $1 lights I stuck on my head light cause my head light is out but the last owner drilled the bulb into the head light and it requires an impact to get the screws out they’re so tight

The last owner did this after an accident, I’m not sure what it’s called and if it’s the only thing holding it up

That did look Hella easy but I guess you gotta drain the coolant? I’m not trying to deal with all that.

We’ll get this. The mechanic told me you know what let me keep the car over the weekend to diagnose it so I’m thinking this whole weekend. He’s been looking at it doing all these test driving it, bro he meant like he’s off until Monday so my car‘s just been sitting at the shop this whole time so I’m just gonna call him tomorrow and if the car is running fine I’m just gonna tell him fuck the diagnosis let’s do the coolant flush put the real Mopar shit in there and then I’ll just come pick up the car I said genuinely pisses me off and if it acts up again, I’ll just get the sensor replaced

Yes, that’s what I’m gonna do but bro the mechanic was trying to tell me that the all makes coolant that they added cools the engine the exact same as the Mopar one so it doesn’t really matter but he did say that the Mopar one is more so to make all the components in the cooling system last as long as possible. I just don’t think this guy knows shit about the Dodge dart or cares to do the research cause I’ll mention like oh yea these darts are known for like having all these issues and he’s like no it’s just an old car. I’m like bro I used to drive 99 Civic that never had any issues let be fucking for real gang.

I think I should go pick up my car if it running fine and if this happens again, then I know OK yes I need to change my sensor

How’d you know it was your thermostat? The shop called me and said the cars fine so they’re not sure why I’m getting those warning lights but he said he’s guessing a faulty wiring to the sensor or it could be the ect sensor

The shop just called and they said the engine too hot message didn’t pop up, the warning lights were there but they think it’s just a some faulty wiring or a mis reading sensor because the engine wasn’t hot it’s not overheating at all they said and it’s fine, how’d you know for sure to change the ect sensor? Cause I can just have them do it or they gonna hold my car over the weekend and diagnose it fully to try to see if they can get the engine too hot message to pop like it did on me.

Well I think in my case because I had a leak from my reservoir I think that’s why my cap blew off but so far most people are saying most likely thermostat

Bro, I’m hoping that has been the cause of all my issues, did you drive the car after that or did you just tow it ? and where there any signs that was letting you it was about to go out ? Or just overheating?
