Error code P0701 indicates a transmission control system range/performance issue detected in the TCM. If the P0701 was a true fault, then your transmission should have defaulted to limp mode and had a noticeable change to how the transmission acted/shifted. That code can possibly be caused by...
No, but you need to understand that a TSB is not the same thing as a recall. A recall needs to be performed unlike a TSB which is basically just a heads up of how to fix a particular issue that falls outside of normal service manual instructions/troubleshooting. A recall entitles you to...
It has been noted previously that the occasional short cycle of warm air is considered normal operation, especially when the AC is operating for longer drives or in humid areas. Basically the HVAC system does this to prevent freezing up of the evaporator.
Can you check to see what, if any, fault codes are getting thrown?
Do you have a Tazer or similar device installed? If so, have you tried unmarrying/removing it to see if that stops the problem?
Short and sweet summary of the wall of words is as follows:
- Problem is a random no start condition that occurs with either the dash button or remote start.
- Only other noted issue is the tailgate's third brake light is inop.
- Both batteries and the starter have been replaced.
- Truck is...
The diesel redlines at 4500rpm, its peak torque comes in at 1400rpm (carrying steady through to 2800rpm), and horsepower peaks at 3600rpm.... there's really no reason to try to wind it out past 4000rpm anyway. Shifting at much lower rpm than what one's used to with a gas engine is the correct...
At 30k miles I changed the engine oil & filter, fuel filter, air filter, fluid in both diffs, and rotated the tires. Level and condition checks of other fluids indicated to me they weren't in need of change yet, though there's no harm in doing so in your case if you desire or your vehicle use...
Demo and loaner are basically one and the same for the purpose of the warranty question here. They're different names for a vehicle that is put into service by the dealer for use by one (demo) or more (loaner) individuals. Regardless of what you call it, the vehicle's put into service date is...
If that diesel Rubicon really is loaded, and from the $68k window sticker it sure sounds like it, then $40k isn't a bad price at all for those miles and it's all the better since they're offering better than average on the trade in. At face value this sounds like a good deal.
Sounds to me like you got $14.5k off the price because the truck was a demo or company vehicle. Sorry to hear you didn't understand that fact when you bought it.
