  1. exterior temp reading inaccurate

    Service manager. Temp reading incorrect, which causes the other things to not automatically come on.......the sensor is designed to work/ be accurate while the vehicle is in motion. they designed a function to work off a sensor that is only meant to be accurate when the vehicle is in motion when...
  2. exterior temp reading inaccurate

    I talked to the dealer and they basically just apologized. They know it's a problem but have no fix.
  3. EcoDiesel Block Heater Plug

    The block heater is installed by the engine manufacturer on every ecodiesel motor. The cord is the only thing you need. There is a couple threads on here that will help you locate it. Auto parts stores sell the cords for about 20 bucks.
  4. Trade in 20’ gas for 21’ diesel

    That's a valid statement but its also worth noting there are probably 10 times as many pentastar motors as ecodiesels out there. For the record I did have failure/warranty issues with def system and a couple other items...... that wasn't my ultimate reason for getting rid of the ED. I agree...
  5. Trade in 20’ gas for 21’ diesel

    Make sure that winch up front doesn't restrict any airflow through the grill.
  6. Trade in 20’ gas for 21’ diesel

    I've owned both. My advise if you are buying it to tow, is read the threads on the diesel power derating. Obviously not every diesel owner has this problem but there is clearly limits to the cooling systems ability to adequately cool the diesel. It pulls pretty awesome till you actually work...
  7. Reliability? Concerns..

    Who would complain if they're not having issues?
  8. Reliability? Concerns..

    I've had both gas and diesel gladiators. This is strictly my experience. The diesel is tons of fun if you do nothing more than "normal driving". Unfortunately it does not appear they built it to be worked hard (and I do not feel I worked mine hard at all). The temperature issues, the def...
  9. Diesel Gladiator Fuel System issues

    I could be wrong but I was told..... NO!.....it would have to be covered under the bumper to bumper warranty. Fuel systems and emissions systems are not powertrain.
  10. WTF this just happened!

    i don't know what jeep wave program you have but only ones i've gotten on both my 2020 and 2021 jt's (one gas/one diesel) was 3 free service's......ie oil changes, tire rotations, etc...... there was no limit per year. and there is no unlimited mileage 3 year warranty. not saying you're...
  11. WTF this just happened!

    yes but it's basically engine only........fuel and emissions are 3/36k at best.
  12. Is the diesel gladiator worth it?

    i've owned both, gas and diesel gladiators. to start with i'll concede that there are likely exceptions to my experience however this is my experience..... my opinion.......if your plan is basically a lifted daily driver running 37's, the stock diesel will probably leave you with a smile on...
  13. throwin codes like oprah

    They can test for bad fluid. Dont know specifically how they test it but it is a simple quick test.
  14. throwin codes like oprah

    I had the service def system warning messages with mine. They replaced basically the entire def system (tank, lines, pump, heaters, etc.....) didn't have any issues with def warning after that. Mine was lifted with 37's never had any problem with dealer trying to deny warranty or...
  15. 37 inch spare tire

    I carry a 2" spacer. With the spacer you should be able to run the spare front or rear, though if you have the choice I would run it on the rear over the front.
  16. Who is running 37"-40" tires on the diesel

    Daily driving on 37's with stock gears is perfect. If you plan on pulling a largish enclosed trailer/camper frequently I think you'd be happier with 4:10's. By no means do I think its "mandatory" just think having a little more gear is beneficial. I've never had anything larger than 37's so...
  17. Is 6K off on a 40K MSRP doable?

    Im sure comparing then and now isn't fair however, about 16 months ago My first sport s had a sticker price of 39 and some change, out the door ended up a little over 31k. I wasn't trading and did have to finance through them but was only "required" to keep financing for 3 months/paymets. Best...
  18. 37 inch spare tire

    I dont.....just had the 1 left.
