Mine also leaks. Mine is from the front passenger side. It almost looks like it could be coming from the dipstick tube. The dealer has put dye in it and will check it at the next change. But on a side note, I had to crawl under today to try turn the motor over by hand as the motor is locked up...

Could it possibly still be a hydro lock if it’s been sitting since Monday? I wouldn’t think cylinder to ring seal would be that good. Possible. Unfortunately I wasn’t driving it last. My wife took our daughter to hockey and parked it and then plugged it in. She said she didn’t notice anything...

Ok. Temps went up so had my sons megacab go back bumper to back bumper and was able to push the truck in the garage. Got the front plastic cover off and used a breaker bar on the balancer. Wouldn’t move. So I tried the other way and it moved, but only a full rotation to the same point as before...

Here’s a shot of a starter for a 3.6 gasser. But the solenoid is identical. I jumpered across the 2 studs which bypasses absolutely everything on the vehicle. It should spin no matter what. It didn’t. Doesn’t answer whether it is the starter or engine though. I’ll get there!!!

Well, amperage goes up as voltage goes down. So on top of the starter or engine not turning, which in itself draws a lot of current, as the batteries went lower, that also increases current going through. So no doubt the wiring got hot. It was the plastic top cap of the actual solenoid that got...

It didn't start at all, or turn over right from the get go. I always remote start from the front door of the house with the door open so I can confirm it started. Did the same with my F150 when I had it. Also, I don't have a heated garage or anything to put it in. I will change out the fuel...

I understand all that. And thank you for the reply. In this case it’s either the engine is totally seized (which I doubt), or the starter is seized. Jumping the starter like I tried totally eliminates anything to do with any electronics or anything but the starter. The starter will not turn. I...

Tried to get at the balancer bolt but there is a big plastic cover over the whole thing. It’s doable to take off no problem, but I couldn’t feel my fingers anymore and the wind is starting to pick up and howl right under the vehicle were I was working. It’s -17c here (2F) and I’m laying on the...

I’ve already replaced both. Still no go. I can hear the starter solenoid or the starter attempt for about 5 seconds, then release. I did try it a few times and you can see the ribbon cable that goes from the solenoid into the starter body is discoloured. So it’s been hot. I have the procedure...

I guess the other thing it could be is the actual engine. If it’s seized, then they’ll cover it!! 😂 Hopefully they’d cover it!!! I’ll update when I get a chance to try move the motor with a breaker bar.

Sorry ahead of time....this might be a little long rant.... Good day all. I have a little issue with my 23 diesel not starting. We have been driving it with no problems at all. I have not been getting any of the typical warning signs that my aux battery is on its way out or anything. Same for...

Got both batteries installed, and tried it out. Same thing. You can hear the starter solenoid click and hold for about 5 seconds then release. No start. Will not turn over at all. Also found out that I had the smaller battery in my diesel. After all the reading I did I thought that jeeps...

So, as a follow up, I put the main battery on charge for several hours and load tested again. it came back good-weak. So, I charged the small one for about an hour and tested it as well. Also came back good-weak. I am going to buy 2 new batteries today and see what happens. If it still won't...

Well, add me to the list I think. Truck was running great, no messages or anything. Then it got down to -39 Celsius and went out to start it and nothing. Just a click as of the starter was trying. Then the message starter protection enabled. Wait 1:59 seconds. So I waited, tried again and same...

Bump up a bit. And my price is OBO. And it’s in Canadian dollars, so that’s 560 American!! Since our dollar is Monopoly money basically! 😂

Here’s Rio. Little chilly on our walk!

Hello all. Selling a brand new set of Diode Dynamics Elite headlights. These are not the MAX versions. I got these as warranty headlights from Diode, and there was a long lead time for them to come in so I bought a set of Rough Country headlights in the meantime. But now I’m just going to leave...

This is for the 3.0 diesel specifically. I took it back in and they said I haven’t been driving it enough to see where it’s coming from. That and the tech that put the dye in didn’t clean the area where the oil was on the side of the block, so they had to clean it all and wait longer. 🤦‍♂️...

I managed to change mine in JSCAN to be the orange turn signal as my DRL. When I install my headlights, I want to use the orange halo along with the fender turn signal to be my DRL. Would that help? Can't remember what the setting was, but I could go back in a see.

Mine appears to be from above the bed plate. I also understand that wind as I drive can spread it around. Here’s hoping it isn’t that. I’ll live with the leak before I let them tackle that!!! 😳
