| I have a huge loan left on my 2000 dodge intrepid and now i have to put more money into it to get a new engine. i was driving to work one day and i heard a knocking sound in my engine but there wasn't any lights that came on that said 'service engine soon'. i had my mechanic look at it and he found that the tming chain broke. i looked on the internet and this is happening a lot and not just with the 2000 dodge intrepid, it's with whatever vehicle's that have a 2.7 liter engine in them. please look into this and let me know if there is anything i can help you with.*ak | |||
