Heard back, in his words “As long as the TSB does not impact PCM or TCM, then it would be fine.”
Sounds as though if the TSB is fairly benign and mechanical in nature, it shouldn’t be a problem. Reading between the lines leads me to believe the tune is at risk if any update needs to occur over...
7k amazing miles on my 21’ willys ecodiesel. It’s the most charismatic machine I’ve owned. 24mpg average on 35s lifted with a full rack and large RTT mounted. It blows the rears off from a dig and keeps pulling. Zero hesitation or lag when climbing, it’s a beast.
That’s precisely what I’m trying to iron out. I would think no, but that doesn’t explain why he specifically said my PCM must have the latest available updates. It hasn’t mattered in the past on any platform I’ve worked with, however it may be that Jeep released something relevant to final...
Inquired about sending my PCM in. He said it first must be updated to the latest firmware and be running the latest software FCA has for the truck. My build was mid June of this year and according to the picture of the PCM sticker I sent, it is running the latest. If it wasn't, he said I'd need...
Foam cannon on a pressure washer is the only way to go. I line our CX-9 up behind the gladiator (both are ceramic coated) and foam them both down at the same time. Wait about 2 or 3 minutes, then rinse with a mild nozzle. Both can be easily done in under 30. If ceramic wasn’t underneath (or any...
Just a few quick notes on the addition of an outlet up front on a sport (Willys in my case) bumper. The plug, from the factory, is routed on the passenger’s side but I keep my glady in our car port and wanted it on the drivers side. I had bookmarked this outlet based on a thread I stumbled upon...
Added an outlet w/ extension for the block heater. On the diesel, the plug is on the passenger’s side, but I wanted it on my side to make it much easier to access. Pulled the bumper entirely off, about 2 hours start to finish with my 4 & 6 y/o “helpers” : )
I caught they were SS. The average DIY hobbyist can be up and printing an array of metals for <$2k these days. The rest is simply attaining the models, which in this case, are quite basic.
I’m surprised Jeep would diminish their brand equity with a move like this. When I saw the posted shifter caps I immediately assumed they were printed prototypes of yet to best cast offerings. To then learn Jeep is actually pushing printed pieces, which would serve them better as free tokens to...
Looks like lacquer on enamel (typcially incompatible) or just plain too thick coupled with a dry (or accelerated) heating environment. For a great finish that will last more than a year is spend $100 (or less) at a body shop to have them shoot whatever single-stage color followed up with a...
