Just curious, did you have the TPM sensors installed wit these rims? If so, any problems with the monitor read out after installation of the new after-market wheels? Already bought my tires and rims, just waiting for my Caliber to come in.

 

For some reason, I'm drawn to the silver and black Caliber

What kind of issues are you anticipating?

 

Well, if you look at my sig, I already bought custom rims and tires for my Caliber over two months ago. I also bought the TPM sensors to go along with them. My issue is the fact it cost me an additional $180 to have the sensors installed, and if for some reason they don't work out on the 19's, there is no way for me to get a refund on the wheel package, which has me a little nervous. On another forum, I've read of member who stated that when he installed his aftermarket wheels, the TPM system would not recognize his new wheels at all. I paid $2200 for the wheel package, and that is a lot of hard earned money to not be totally satisified. Other than that, accessibility to the pollen filter, arm rest, and the installation of my new radio are some of the things I'm anticipating.

 

Sorry I dont have the TPM system on my car....

 

Here's my Caliber R/T. Had it for a month now, and I absolutely love it.

Can you say rock star?[sm=icon_rock.gif] Cangrats, and welcome to dodge forum!

 

Thanks for the welcome. I gotta say, this car rocks on so many levels. Last night a buddy of mine and I were comparing our sound systems. He turned on "Du Hast" by Rammstein, and I turned on the sattellite radio to one of the classical stations, I think it was the opera station. Needless to say, with the boston acoustics, my car was twice as loud as his (a VW Golf). However, he did smoke me when we left the red light.

However, I did just discover this "Clip" in the accellerator, not more than an hour ago. Doing 55 down the road, and pushing past the "Clip" is shot up the rpm to 6 and held it there 'til I backed off. Any idea what that is? Almost feels similar to a Turbo of sorts. I gotta say, I love this car.

 

That click on the gas pedal switches the CVT from economy or (fuel efficient) to Performance mode.

 

Interesting, this is the first time I've heard of this. Do all models of the Caliber have this feature? I've test drove the Caliber many times, and never noticed this "clip." I've had the car into passing and so forth, didn't notice a thing. I guess I'll do a search to see if threads exist on this subject.

 

MedlineIII -> can ask you local dealer.. if someone goes to his garage, can order a Yellow Caliber?
(or is it just because you had the model tha was in the AutoShow)

thnx
