Around 8k and no, tried not to use the ESS. Hate it!

Well needless to say after the 1st warning from the cylinder 4 misfires, replace plugs and coil packs, 3 months later it starts again. Shop changed the plugs again, still misfire, lifter/rockers started clanging. Now they went in to change them out and check the cams. Passenger intake cam is...

Dang, hate to here that. Mine has been good. Had issues with ticking during light acceleration. Been in shop 5-10 time and they said it is what it is basically. Normal noise. 108K and still going strong. I will update my pics soon.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Gladiator looking good!!

what did he use? I have a set of Wheels and doors about to powder coat for a customer and i have tried so many samples to get a close match. It tried the green candle and lollypop red and was to dark.

how did the doors come out?? did the color match good??

well noise has gotten worse and this summer had a different dealer check it and they said it was normal and pre-detonation is the reason. Yeah, really don't think so.

I’m thinking either the Clayton 2.5” or the 3.5”. I have 35” on now but will get 37” next. As for powder coating I do that myself.

nice, I can’t decide on which lift to go with. Been waiting for over a year now to lift and now too many options. Are you completely satisfied with it??

Even running the fuel suggested (Shell 93 can't think of the others, but Shell is the only one near me) the noise is still there. There is something internally wrong with these motors. Trust me, I will keep bugging them until a fix.

So I finally recieved a call from @JeepCares and they said after reviewing all info and records that it is detemined that the spark knock/detonation is due to fuel type. So there is nothing else to do. Even though the noise is getting worse and last longer. I can get a second opinion but the...

Agreed with what @ShadowsPapa said. they are all different for sure. I am still waiting for Chrysler field tech to come and check mine out. Who knows when they will send them out due to covid. I am still clicking along. @bgc227, if something doesn't seem write, make sure you notice when...

Update! So I was just inform Chrysler is not sending a field rep out due to COVID. Seriously!!!!

They have checked all that, even changed oil specifically to see if that helped in the beginning of issue. Received call from Jeep Cares today, just waiting on call from dealer to figure out field tech coming. Then Dealer says same thing, trying to get up with the other. Phone tag!

That’s about when mine started. 18k. 40k and still ticking. Lol!

that’s why I’m trying to get them to figure it out. It is not normal! I would hate to just deal with it and never report it then 20-30k mile down the road have engine problem. Shouldn’t be happening. Thanks for all the detailed explanation of spark knock/detonation.

Funny, I see and hear of this more and more and they say that mine is the only one. Guess we all need to start making more noise about it! Lol

Probably 4-5 weeks or more since last Dec ‘19. Been waiting since Nov 23 for what Chrysler’s next step will be. Said they are sending a field tech out. Guess they can’t find one. Very frustrating!!!

That what I keep waiting on. I have put 22k miles on it since I 1st complained to Jeep about it. At this rate it will 60k miles before they figure this out.

Temp is normal and usually after about a 2 mile runs after startup I can mimic noise anytime.
