Noticed a strange noise when decelerating at city speeds. The only times I hear it is when I get back from work, from about a 30 km drive. And its not all the time.
It sounds like an engine brake. This guy on wranglerforum has the same noise, and he captured it on video...
That makes people talk heh?
I'll try to adress every question lol
My JTRD is a 2022, bought used at 19500 km. I have an appointment on wednesday for the pump recall already.
It has a metalcloak true dual rate 3.5, with 1" spacers added in the front to compensate the heavy engine. It now rides...
Hi all, new ecodiesel owner (this is my 5th jeep).
I am an experienced mechanic, and I was wondering what should a new diesel owner know to keep it running good, clean, and efficient.
Oil change and fuel filter change frequency, should I follow fca recommendations?
Tune or not, stage 1 or 2...
Emailed them and this is the answer I got
[ That's currently disabled on diesels due to an incompatibility, but it will be reintroduced in a future firmware update.

Alright, installed the dry type block heater yesterday, and this morning it was -28°C outside. Been plugued in all night.
Temperature around the plug was about 38°C and Radiator temp was 5°C before start up.
Go check the video if you wanna see it cold start :
It was expensive but it works.
Got my cord today, will install tomorrow and report back later.
Why is there threads on the heater, but nothing on the cord to thread it? ? thats kinda dumb.
Will report back later with install and impressions. We should get -20°C soon enough here, we see down to -40°C a couple times in the winter. Having a block heater is mandatory, those stupid dealers are too cheap to install them before they sell the vehicules.
Just bought that dry type heater, did not buy the 200+$ CAD cord at the dealer thinking I could find a cord that matches in the aftermarket, but I guess I was wrong. Any one have an aftermarket part number for the cord of this bloc heater?
Backstory, In my previous gas JT, the winch mode on my tazer mini worked fine, now I traded my gas for a diesel, and the winch mode do not work.
It says "winch mode on" in the dash, but rpm doesnt change. Tried to do a full reboot but still not working. Last update I did was back in august...
I took a picture of my front left bump stop as it sits right now. Pretty sure the tube is longer
Looking at this pictures, id say they are much shorter on the 3.6
Hey, last week I traded my gasser JT for an ecodiesel. A million hours of work later the old one is back to stock and the new one is almost outfitted with all the stuff I removed from the gas JT.
I'm pretty sure it already been discussed but the search function gave no results.
I have a...
I certainly wouldnt go for a new one. Way way too expensive. I actually was looking at a low millage rubicon at my local dealer, at 65k used, only 19000 km. Thats still pretty expensive.
If I go this route, I don't think i'll keep the emission systems intact. I've been a mecanic in a chrysler...
Hi guys, I've been running metalcloak true dual rate 3.5" for two years now, with their rocksport shocks, on 37 trail grapplers, on my '21 JTR 3.6 automatic
I regeared to 5.13 this summer, and now my mpg suffered a lot from that. I lost like 2mpg just because of the gears ?♂️what I did not...
Hey guys! Just to put you in perspective,
I currently own a set of cooper stt pros 37, on some « cheap » trail boss wheels from canadian tire. I have had no luck with these tires last week, slashed 2 side walls between the side bitters on the same trail. The first we suspect a semi-maybe too...
