  1. Looking for battery replacement recommendations for 2020 Gladiator

    When will Stellantis tell their “engineers“ to rework and delete the stupid aux battery? The complaints are numerous, but THEY NEVER LEARN! Bought my last Jeep!
  2. 3.6 Cam Self destruction

    I’ll continue additives…still drive the 74 VW I purchased new; 3k oil change + additives…never had an engine problem with any vehicle over 60 + years of use. Do what makes you comfortable; Jay Leno uses Archoil, he probably has more engines than you. I can find ANY number of pros/con statements...
  3. 3.6 Cam Self destruction

    AR9100 Friction Modifier protects and extends the life of engine components by forming a solid boundary lubricating film which results in improved power, smoother and quieter vehicle operation and extended oil drain intervals. AR9100 is suitable for use in all gas and diesel engines and...
  4. Hard time finding my favorite oil

    Amsoil user, too. I order the “kit” every 3k change, that way I have the next change on hand. Also add Archoil and Zmax to the mix. No ticks yet!
  5. 3.6 Cam Self destruction

    How often are those of you with wear problems changing your oil and are you adding modifiers? I don’t rat my 3.6 Sport S, change the oil every 3K, add Archoil and Zmax. So far, very quiet. Banks intake, throttle body spacer, MBRP exhaust, and Pedal Commander.
  6. FCA Canada voids transmission warranty for using AMSOIL.

    How did thet know it was Amsoil? I’ve looked at O’Reilly, Castrol, Valvoline and Mopar synthetic AT4…looks feels and smells the same…
  7. Automatic Transmission fluid change interval s on 2021 JT

    not easy; have to drop tranny support, t40 torx times 13, drop rear screws first, fluid everywhere.
  8. Automatic Transmission fluid change interval s on 2021 JT

    Ordered the PFE aluminum trans pan; in short DON’T! Doesn’t fit the 3.6 (crossover pipe interference). Anyway, it forced replacement of the filter and fluid. It is a royal pain; watched PPE’s install video on youtube. Trans temp is available on your instrument panel…reverse for 5 sec…fwd for...
  9. Is it me, or does the JT really struggle...

    install a ror pedal or the like…changed my gladiator for the better
  10. Trade in 20’ gas for 21’ diesel

    traded my ram ecodiesel BECAUSE of the engine. Had a host of malfunctions (throttle disconnect, overheating, software issues). Lawyer got me $6000 + purchase. I wouldn’t have that Italian piece of iron in any vehicle. Happy with my Pentastar + MBRP exhaust, Banks intake and throttlebody...
  11. Would you feel comfortable towing...

    have a sport s max tow that towed a 3500 lb kubota tractor with front end loader and rotary mower that brought me very close to the 7500 lb max. My temps were normal and even going up and down hills from Tyler TX to Mena AR, the engine wasn’t labored.
  12. Anyone offer a finned aluminum oil pan for the Gladiator?

    I searched for finned aluminum oil pan for my Gladiator...nothing found. Any fellow JT’s know of any?
  13. Anyone running Banks cold air intake?

    Installed Banks on my Sport S. I’m ”old”, so I’m looking for better mpg. Lot more surface area and diameter, so more air in (and yes I put a free flow exhaust on, too). On the road 21.8 mpg, in town 19.5.
  14. Just heard Diesel Gladiator can be ordered

    Traded my ecodiesel in on my Gladiator...go to the ecodiesel forum before you order! I had nothing but trouble with mine and it was either poor engineering or build quality. Wait until you are in “limp mode” in heavy traffic on an interstate highway doing 15 in a 75!
  15. Help me understand what's going on with my MPG

    Stock...Mine will tow small trailers, a Kubota L4701 (made outta pig-iron). Texas based so off-road is flat and muddy.
  16. Nice honest review on EcoDiesel

    Go for it...buy one. The same engineers that developed the VM Motori gen 2 are still “on the job”. They can’t develop a part to prevent a gen 2 from spontaneously burning; good luck!
  17. Help me understand what's going on with my MPG

    I was getting around 17 off the showroom floor. Put on the Banks intake; up to 18...MBRP performance exhaust/ZMAX...getting 20.5 on average (really watching my lead foot). My normal drive is on I20 @ 75 mph, cruise control on. Around town I drive my old Beetle. The 8 speed tranny helps. 2020...
  18. Nice honest review on EcoDiesel

    80 of cancer cured means you still have cancer...again, I owned one, got terrible info from FCA, their engineering department could not develop cures. When you are limited to 15 mph in a 70 mph zone, it ruins your taste for any more dates.
  19. Sport S Prices Rising

    Got my dealer to drop price (bought mine March 21...the day Dallas was shut down by crazy judge), showroom was empty, had my ram ecodiesel as trade. Dealer kept “finding” incentives and increased trade value. Max tow Sport S, white with tan interior 35K...very happy...22 on trade.
