Hi scotty I have 2015 Dodge Dart Sxt 2.4L engine. I have 208,000 mileage on it now. I have replaced the spark plugs at 127,000 mileage and will soon be replacing the spark plugs again and I have replaced the Engine pcv valve at 155,000 mileage however everything other part on my engine has remained the same besides changing the engine oil every 3,500-5,000 miles with oil filter. I'm just concerned is there anything else I should perhaps change out for the engine.
You can look in your Owners Manual under Maintenance Schedule and see the recommended time/mileage intervals for inspection/replacement of certain fluids and parts.
Certainly it's past time at 208,000 miles to replace the serpentine belt
Unfortunately I got my car used and the owner manual is for a ram 1500 and not for my dart but I will have my serpentine inspected and have it replaced
Google 2015 Dodge Dart Sxt 2.4L service manual. You should be able to download the manual directly from Stellantis.
In my opinion, you could also check out all of your electrical wires, look for any chaffing, brittleness or wear and tear exposed wires etc. Look at your battery cables, are they breaking down at the connection points etc.
You could also check out all of your rubber and vacuum hoses for dry rotting and change them out before they fail. Visually inspect your shocks, are they leaking, are there any other small leaks starting around the engine, transmission, axles etc.
I would not try to change out any components (alternator, water pump, fuel pump as examples) if they are in good working order as preventative maintenance. You could spend a lot of money, and still end up not changing out the part(s) that will fail at some point in the future.
the owner manual is for a ram 1500 and not for my dart
owner's manuals are available as a free download from the manufacturer's website.
