  1. Is the Rubicon X worth the extra money and complexity over the standard Rubicon?

    To piggyback on what Jefe1018 stated, I wouldn't spend the extra on full-time 4x4 unless I lived in an area where I had to deal with snow-covered roads on a regular basis.
  2. Removed Main Battery, This Was Found In Tray

    ...but then my watchamajig and thingamacallit won't operate correctly.
  3. Removed Main Battery, This Was Found In Tray

    Thanks! Now I know why it was so difficult to detach the positive terminal.
  4. Removed Main Battery, This Was Found In Tray

    2020 JTR, 45,xxx miles, build date 10/2019. What is this? Where does it go? Was removing main battery for replacement and as I lifted battery out, i heard something rattle around in the bottom of the battery tray. Found this and can't figure out what it does or where it goes. BTW, this was the...
  5. 5k mile oil changes in spite of oil life indicator still showing plenty left

    To the OP; since the oil life indicator algorithm is based on driving characteristics, you could always drive the shit out of it for 5,000 miles...maybe that will get the oil life indicator more in line with your oil change routine. As another data point, my 2020 JTR has been relegated to a...
  6. Battery Replacement

    I'm in the same boat as the OP, running original batteries (2020 JTR w/45,xxx miles). Noticed that after sitting a week, it takes a couple days of driving for the ASS to start working. The message on the ASS screen indicates battery charging. I removed the alternate battery lead and fuse 42...
  7. Does my 2021 Gladiator support Android Auto?

    2020 with 7" screen - no problem using Android Auto. Had some glitches initially but they have become much less frequent. Not sure if I have changed my processes or if the AA app has been improved. Have not had my JT back to a dealer since I bought it in May '20 so I know it has not had a...
  8. What am I doing wrong?

    2020 JTR 6MT, stock tires, OEM steel bumper w/wings removed, 43,xxx miles. 19.1 average since I started tracking September 2021 at 15,827 miles. Don't remember exactly, but my mileage did increase after 3-4k miles.
  9. Any 2020 Gladiator Owners Still Here?

    2020 JTR, build date Sep 2019, purchased May 2020, 6MT; 43,xxx miles. Had intermittent misfire which would come and go randomly. First misfire was at 12,xxx and wouldn't misfire again for another 5-6,000 miles. Started getting more frequent around 40,xxx. Used my OBD reader to figure out it was...
  10. Gladiator Warning Chimes Seemingly at Random

    Any chance you slightly moved the gear shifter towards 1st gear while coasting? I had this chime occur a few times before I finally saw the message on the information center. If speed is too high to shift into 1st gear, you will get a chime and message on the information center. In my case I...
  11. Service protocol

    I'm betting there was another code to go along with the P0300. The P0300 is a generic code indicating a misfire condition. I had a coil pack go bad and the P0300 code was always accompanied by another code (i.e. P0303, Cylinder 3 misfire). My misfire would occur randomly and would usually...
  12. Blowing F52 Fuse After 10 Minutes of Draw, Not Instantly

    Not only are fuses time dependent as indicated in the above post, they are also affected by ambient temperature. A fuse may blow with a load on a hot day but then operate normally with the same load on a cold day. Could be a combination of your pump drawing a bit more load now than when it was...
  13. Finally! Clutch recall “fix”

    The last letter I received in early 2023 (recall 23V-116) stated a remedy was not yet available, but when I logged on to my Jeep dashboard this morning, it appears they have updated this recall and finally decided to replace the clutch assembly (haven't received my official letter yet)...
  14. No battery issue!

    2020 JTR, 6 MT, 7" screen, purchased May 2020, build date Sep 2019, 41k miles, usually only driven 1-2 times per week, no battery tender. Still on original batteries, but I know I'm on borrowed time. I live in SE Alabama and the Gladiator stays in the garage. Our lowest temp was last year...
  15. Tail pipe condensation

    No...but I don't idle in one place long enough for condensation to collect in the exhaust. I back out of the garage upon verification that all systems are normal. After a couple minute drive out of my neighborhood, my temp gauge is coming to life as I hit the county highway. Additionally, I'm...
  16. Oil change miles -- how often do you change oil?

    Driving profile: Rural highway miles, approximately 10,000 miles/yr. Oil change frequency: 7,500 miles (it's an easy calculation for me). On-board oil monitor usually indicates ~20+% remaining at oil change. FWIW, I also perform 5-tire rotation at oil change. Location: SE Alabama with...
  17. Lights on but engine doesn’t start/turn over - single click then restarts

    Glad they replaced the batteries under warranty, but that service is not exactly inexpensive as it will bill out to $800-$900. My mom just had both batteries replaced in her JL at a dealership which cost her ~$850. Unfortunately, I'm 600 miles away from her or I would have replaced them for...
  18. Lights on but engine doesn’t start/turn over - single click then restarts

    It's going to be interesting to see how this "warranty" plays out with the aftermarket winch and lights. My bet is replacing both batteries will solve the issue; just not sure how the aftermarket electrical items will affect the warranty. OverBrass, recommend you go ahead and pull your...
  19. Service Diagnostic Fee

    From what I've read, that adjustment is not a factory authorized adjustment. The original TSB associated with the original aluminum gearbox called for the gearbox replacement with a steel unit. I'm pretty sure the steel gearbox unit is also not factory authorized to be field adjusted.
  20. Start stop not working

    Is the yellow Stop/Start light illuminated on your dash or is the ASS just not working. Did it work previously and just stopped working after the application of the fluid film? Scroll through the dash menu until you find the Auto-Stop-Start screen. What does it say? Mine tells me if the ASS...
