I hope it's ok to post about my Chrysler Concorde here. It's not an Intrepid..but close. I have a 1996 Concorde with the 3.5L engine. I went out to crank it one morning and it made a horrible knocking sound. After running for a couple of minutes, it died. It will crank and run but dies soon after. I would like to repair it if nothing is severely damaged. Everyone I've talked to says "just get another motor". Is this a common problem with this engine and if so, what is likely the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
