What is your question?
I recently had to replace the water pump on my 2013 Charger w 5.7 liter Hemi. I also replaced the thermostat and coolant temp sensor, bled the lines for air, and topped off with antifreeze. After the replacement, I've been throwing codes P0128 and P0381, as well as an intermittent voltage light (the red lightning bolt). The 0381 code is really getting me, as this seems to be for diesel models based on what I can find online...and I do not have a diesel... The weather has been 30-45 degrees, I seem to be getting heat, and the car "feels" as if it is running fine...no noises or leaks following the water pump change. Any thoughts??
What makes this problem better or worse?
Worse when colder outside
How long has your 2013 Dodge Charger had this problem?
Approx. 1 week

P0381 indeed does not exist for your 2013 Charger with a 5.7L HEMI engine. I'd probably consider having a professional test performed and/or obtaining a different diagnostic tool at the very least. P0128 generally pertains to the operation of the thermostst. You could have a wiring issue if the thermostat is working properly.
