Why would any red blooded American Jeep owner ever want chinese made stuff made out of chinesium? Especially when there are so many aftermarket and local metal shops here at home?
From what I’ve been told about the VVT Cam Fasers, the light weight 0w/20 oil is required for proper operation. But it’s also very critical to maintain a full oil level, using top grade full synthetic oil with MOPAR MS RATED OIL.
As far as the ass system goes, I just keep my HVAC temp controls at the extreme cold in summer and warm in winter. That will automatically turn start stop off.
As a last resort try a two button rest shutdown. With the key on acc hold down the volume knob and tuning knob to the screen blacks out. Then wait for it to come back. Good luck!
I have been told the same thing by a petroleum engineer, who works for another manufacturer that has said so. I have always changed the first oil around 3,000-4,000 miles, then do so at 50-40% life, depending upon how I’ve been driving. I’ve been doing this since 1985 on every new vehicle...
If you’re talking about the rear tail/stop/turn lights, there are a few on Facebook marketplace. That for some reason owners remove to install the aftermarket flush type. Most for sizable discount and fraction of the aftermarket lights price.
Ok please everyone who plans on going off road in their Jeep, take note of the wheel and tire package on this beauty. No 20” low profile 35” MT tires!
It really bothers me that Jeep charges so high a price, that when a known issue like pre-mature wear and tare happens in enough numbers to make it a worthy issue, why thy done require proper treatment for the metal the parts are made out of? Like wouldn’t shot peening the cams rectify the...
An old friend of mine had a 1979 Scrambler he bought new with his Navy re-enlistment bonus. In dark blue with white cab roof and similar stripes, plus the usual steel rock crawler wheels in white. At the same time I had a 78 Scout II TERRA 4x4 truck. We had a lot of fun!
Yea for some the math can be confusing. But the numbers are different for different reasons. Payload is determined by the manufacturer starting with the curb weight, then whatever equipment and suspension is included will a particular model. Tow rating is just that, only the trailer weight. But...
Not an expert exact answer, but easiest to check is to look at the payload rating in the door jamb, that will let you know what payload you can carry with the individual equipment on board. If it’s not upwards of 1,700, but down to 900-1,100lbs? That’s what you need to consider. Every trailer...
Have you tried a reset? Mine was acting up very similar and I pushed the UCONNECT button to talk to troubleshooting. They advised with the engine running to hold down the volume knob and tuner knob long enough for the system to shut down and reboot. Worked so good once did it. Good luck!
That is the dumbest question ever! Both are fantastic, but one is a mid sized SUV, with arguably the best off road capabilities of them all. The other is a fantastic truck, that’s mid sized and more focused on off road capabilities that most others. But to compare to each other? Nonsense.
Now if they would just build a Willys version with the off road enhancements, along with the 3,000lbs payload and 7,000lbs towing capacity. Or just a plain ol Sport, with the basics that come standard. I can imagine removing the fold down sides and tailgate, then mounting a small Teardrop...
