Just turned over 30k and dpf failed along with turbo 1000 miles from home. I love the power and torque and mpg, but now I’m trying to figure out a way to get rid of it. Never had any vehicle leave me stranded on a road trip. It’s very disappointing.
Mine failed about two weeks ago on a trip to Montana. Just turned 30k miles. Apparently my turbo also failed. Went into limp mode in the mountains 1000 miles from home. I found the nearest dealer and had to leave it there and rent a vehicle to drive home. I asked the service advisor if I’d done...
Wouldn’t you think that as smart as these “engineers” are that design these things, they would be able to figure out that wires too close to hot exhaust should have some kind of heat shield? It boggles my mind to think of all the wiring issues I’ve had with Jeeps over the years. Fuel pumps ...
All great information. I did buy a Mopar air filter and fuel filter. I always stick with OEM as well. I will double check the air filter and see if that makes any difference. I do believe that Minnesota has already switched to winter blend fuel, and that is most likely what has happened. My...
Like I said before in the original post, all of this started about a week ago when I filled up, changed my air filter, and then took it into the dealer for my second oil change. The trip where I saw 26mpg was over a month ago. I’ve been running pedal monster for almost a year now and it didn’t...
I did see 26mpg average on a trip we took recently where I drive around 60-65 the whole way. That’s the only time. Yes I do see some real time numbers of 24-25, but nothing like that since my last fill up. I’ll be taking a weekend trip a few hours away in a few days where I’ll be driving...
Good info. I’ve been planning on getting one. I run the Banks pedal monster now and love it. I’ve never seen any regen notifications and I just turned over 12,000 miles.
Agreed. 90 degrees yesterday in Minnesota and close to that today too. 30 degrees above average. I’ll take this I’ve frigid temperatures and snow any day though.
I’ve never seen above 26 ever, and once I go above 65 it starts dropping. On my trip through Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho this summer I average 22-23 the whole trip with all of my overlanding gear in the back and the go fast camper on as well. I was under the impression that higher tire pressure...
I think that is exactly what is going on. I don’t drive it in the winter because of the salt they use on the roads, so I’ve never noticed if there’s a drop in mpg or not.
I’ve had the GFC on for several months and it did not change my mpg at all. The GFC weighs 240 lbs. The diesel doesn’t even know it’s back there and performance was not affected at all. This happened within the past week when I noticed several miles less per gallon. I’m thinking like a lot of...
Gas engine? I’m running diesel. And yeah I’m noticing it dropping about 3 mpg lower than normal since I filled up last, so I’m thinking it must be the winter blend.
