Chrysler has a service bulliten on this issue, you replace the comp, drier, lines and hoses, and requries a new expansion valve ,blockage from drier decant materal, and flush the system, this is available in a service kit, wich is fairly reasonable in price, about $700.00 Cnd. I have done alot of these repairs on 2003-2006 models mini vans. any vehicle is worth the price for ac. GOOD LUCK RDJRP

I have a 2005 dodge grand caravan. My heater doesn't work (freezing air)it's over heating when I tack it up (going up a hill) and now it knocks when I push the gas and just cuts off. I let it cool down for...

You may have a stuck closed thermostat which get's worse when the car overheats. All the symptoms you describe indicate this.
Buy a new thermostat and replace the old one. Do not continue to drive the car for any distance other than a distance that prevents the knocking.

Locate the thermostat by following the top radiator hose to were it attaches to the block. The stat is located under the flanged piece that the hose is connected to.

My 2005 Grand caravantransmission issue

The Dodge vehicles have an external solenoid pack that runs the trany.My experiance the solenoid pack starts to leak trany fluid into the electrical conector.Sometimes you can clean the fluid out with a spray cleaner and compressed air and it will temporaly fix the problem.If it does you know the solenoid pack will need to be replaced.
