2000 Plymouth Neon Starter Problem
I have a 2000 Plym Neon and when I drive the car for a while and it gets warmed up, if I turn it off I have to wait anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes before the car will start. I replaced the battery and cables and starter selenoid. I have been told because of where the starter is located, under the manifold for the fan, the heat from the engine ... Read More

2000 Plymouth Neon Starts and Stalls
I have a 2000 neon starts and stalls all the time. Sometimes it stalls when you first starts but mostly stalls after it is warm. Replaced fuel pump but still did the same thing. So we took it to the shop. Could find nothing wrong,no codes. So they checked the fuel pressure and it was between 95 and 100 psi, way to high. The fuel pump is only 1 day old, ... Read More

Re: 2000 Plymouth Neon dies, no electrical [afd2506]

I've change fuses spark plug wires and the sparkplug coil box bolted on ... Read More

Re: 2000 Plymouth Neon dies, no electrical [poopstain]
sounds like your catalyst converter is plugged up. especially if when you are driving the transmission shifts funny and you can only go around 25-30MPH.can verify with a vacuum gauge which is the more economically correct way. the other you would need a exhaust back pressure gauge which runs around $350

Re: 2000 Plymouth Neon LX power lock problem [striker223]
Hi, striker223: Unfortunately, I haven't been able to resolve that rather annoying problem with my locks. I never really got a chance to mess with that problem, since not long after I posted, my car completely stopped working. (luckily I had another car.) I posted my question about the other problem on here also, so I'm still holding out hopes that someone has resolution to any of these problems and I ... Read More

Electrical Problems w/ locks & dash
I have a 2000 Plymouth Neon with 101K miles. Have had this current problem for the last 6 mos. but has been intermittent and gradual. My automatic locks are constantly clicking while I drive, above 30 and 40 mph. My dome light also turns on occassionally while driving and my dash reads that a door is ajar, even though it is not. Any ideas?

Hi, Liz... I have the same problem, except that it's only the driver side door. I realize that you had posted this nearly two and half years ago, but I was wondering if you had managed to fix your problem? If you wouldn't mind emailing me, I'd appreciate it. Thx.

2000 Plymouth Neon dies, no electrical
I have a 2000 Plymouth Neon that dies and loses all electrical. If I let it sit for awhile it will come back to life. I've had different opinions from everybody I know - anywhere from plugs, wires, coil to battery, alternator, electrical shorts to O2, cam, and crank sensors. Today the check engine light finally reared its ugly head. What is the general concensus on this one?

Plymouth Neon 2000 Air Conditioning
Hi We own a 2000 Plymouth Neon. When air conditioner turned on, only lukewarm air comes out. It's been like this since we got it. Does this have to do with air conditioning coolant? or? How should we proceed with fixing this? (Do those DIY Refrigerant canisters work? And where would we connect this to under the hood?) Thanks! Kendra and Mike

Dodge-Plymouth Neon: Water Leak

Re: Wet floorboards in back seat [monkey7312]
My 2000 Plymouth Neon was also leaking. The dealership said they typically leak through the tail lights, into the trunk, then underneath the back seat to the floor. They charged me $500 to dry the entire car out and fix the leak. I've had it back 2 days, and its raining outside, so I will know soon if its really fixed. Seems like this is a design flaw and should have ... Read More

Re: 2000 plymouth neon stereo wiring diagram [mk7]
mk7- The same thing happened to me. I went to a car stereo place and they sold me the entire wire set that goes to the neon. Color to color, perfect match.

Best Price ive seen, reliability
I almost bought an SRT4 this weekend. Two weeks ago, they were selling at Glendale Dodge in So. CA for retail plus $2000 dealer mark up.

This last weekend they advertised it for the same $2500 below retail, but this time "not just ... Read More

no title
No doubt, the Neon was botched, and I think the mistake was unforgivable in 2000, when Chrysler improved the car in so many ways but didn't go the extra step and offer the 150 hp engine until too late. The early interior trim, etc. problems were legendary, but it's interesting that Chrysler decided to keep the Neon name (after all, it had cult status among budget-minded enthusiasts) at a time when ...

Spoilers and Neons and bears, oh my
Frankly when I bought mine I didn't get a spoiler and didn't even think about it. None of the ones on the lot had them. I think I've only seen factory spoilers on the Plymouths in 2000. Although, much to my surprise, my wife was disappointed I didn't get one. She even suggested I look into getting one installed. It would be a boring world if we all liked the same ... Read More

2001 Neon...
I test drove a 2001 Plymouth Neon LX on Saturday. The engine and wind noise have been greatly reduced, and they added a 3rd shoulder belt for the middle-rear occupant. But, no 4-speed automatic yet.

The 2000 has lower roadholding than the 99 because the suspension is softer than the old one. So, even with larger tires and a better suspension in the way of a better more refined ride, the roadholding grip will always drop when a softer setup with more travel and a raised ride height is used. Also, the new ones use crappy Goodyear Eagle LS tires whereas the old ones used more ... Read More
