you do have the actual video...i already posted it. Go back through the posts i have made here and you will see the exact puddle.
In the video, the bow wave is above tyre height, however the water is not above rear tyres.
In any case, none of that is even relevant, do you know where top of the...
thanks for your vote of support @troverman .
Look honestly, I am trying to see if Jeep will cover this, however, i am under no illusions that apart from the type of breather hose connection to the top of the transmission, the rest really is on me.
The thing is however, if that connection was...
so let me get this straight...
a clutch adhesive designed for immersion in a petroleum based product (transmission fluid) is going to be affected by water?
That doesnt make sense...have you ever had any oil based adhesive let go from water immersion? I work in construction industry and i have...
How many miles have you done with supercharger?
I'd like to throw a magnuson on my Rubicon but I'm yet to see how many have lasted the test of time...I want to see at least 60k+ miles on a pretty decent number of them before engine shits itself. I think that would convince me it's safe to put...
Why would water damage clutches?
Also, is valve body and stuff like that in the bottom of transmission? Can that entire part of it be replaced as a single unit?
Here in Australia, an engine swap from V6 to V8 has to be engineered.
I have no idea if an engineer would allow an earlier manufactured engine unless it does meet existing stadnard?
The main issue is the dodge challenger setup for this engine...what is different between a 5.7 for Challenger vs...
Hi guys,
an extension of my other thread about water ingress in to 3.6litre gladiator 8 spd transmission (ZF 8 HP Torqueflight 850 RE - i think?)
exactly which components is the water going to damage?
In look at the schematics, it appears that the bottom end of the transmission will be...
I have a change that is badly needed...
The transmission breather hose connection on the transmission used behind the 3.6litre pentastar engine. (torqueflite 850RE - maybe others as well im not sure)
Currently its a spark plug type cap (which can easily be removed with fingers) and is not...
Who cares whether its pre detonation or pre ignition...people understand what both terms means.
All that pre-detonation implies is that the detonation is occuring BEFORE the sequence related to the ignition timing marks on the crank complete the appropriate denotation sequence in the...
I dont expect that this will get fixed under warranty.
For those who may wonder why i included the google review, if you read the review carefully you will note that:
1. i make mention of a complaint i made to two dealerships about diff whine coming from underneath the car.
This diff whine...
Could i also just set another thing about water depth straight as some on this forum are clearly unaware of the fiording depth...
Jeep state 31.5 inches for standard Rubicon.
I have 3 inches of lift (1 inch on tyres and 2 inch suspension)
The max fiording depth for my vehicle is 31.5 inches +...
To begin with...I am not trying to worm my way out of a 4wding event that has damaged the transmission. Mechanics are not so stupid they cannot see from underneath whilst a car is on the hoist whether or not it has been in deep muddy water. I purchased this car for work and to do some medium to...
Hi guys,
this thread is an extension of a previous one that i have posted a day or so ago where i had a transmission error code and eventually found water in the transmission.
Please note, although the dealership is named in the reveiw, i wish to avoid any public naming of the dealership in...
Hi guys,
I had my gladiator out in a really boggy mud hole yesterday (similar to that shown in my profile picture on left) and after winching through it, the above error appeared.
We obviously couldnt do anything about it out on the trails, and so i tried to drive about 40km home, however, we...
Hi guys,
I have an update for this...
We jacked all 4 wheels up off the ground this morning
Start car and put it into drive
All four wheels were spinning however, differentials were working normally (meaning there was no issue with stuck diff lockers).
We engaged diff lockers, and as...
after a day out 4wding yesterday, i fear i have the reverse problem. Drove 50km home and upon doing u turn in my driveway it appears my rear locker and centre transfer case locks are still engaged (dash says everything is unlocked) and it's also in 2wd according to lever,hower clearly...
Hi guys,
My gladiator is a 2022 model...3.6litre auto with 40,000km on it.
It recently had a new transmission installed under warranty and after getting it back I could hear what sounded like diff whine.
I have notified the dealership but haven't been able to get it back to them due to work...
Hi guys,
Update...
1. I reseated the pcm board connectors (gpec2) sprayjng them with wd40 and that seems to have stopped the recurring check engine error
2. Jeep called me after having the car for a few days to inform that the transmission is cactus and is to be replaced under warranty
