  1. is running regular street tires against the rules in a gladiator?

    I’m currently running Michelin Defenders LTX MS2 on my 2022 Sport S. Great tire and the are rated Extra Load which is a bit better than standard load rating that usually is found in non LT tires.
  2. Recommendation for All Terran Tire/Wheel Set

    If yours is not a max tow model with the standard 3.73 gear ratio, I would recommend keeping the factory wheels and mount an all terrain 265/70R70 size tire. This is a very popular tire size and with many choices. This size will be an upgrade and still keep the drivability of the stock vehicle.
  3. Check Engine Light and Vibration

    Had the same early on with my 2022. It was an 02 sensor as well. Then another 02 sensor went within the same month. Replaced under warranty. Would be good to get a code on it. They actually run ok with just one of the sensors going bad. After the initial fail, the computer compensates for...
  4. Heresy? road tires on a Rubicon? ETA- now a shock install

    My Sport S with Michelin Defenders M/S2 with XL load. 265/70R17. Could not be happier with this tire. Also comes 285/70R17 too, but the more robust LT load rated.
  5. Rubicon Tire Recommendation

    I have absolutely enjoyed having my Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 265/70R17 on my Sport S. I believe it also comes in a LT285/70R17 which would be appropriate for the Rubicon. This is a superior tire for wet roads and has done great on limited winter precipitation down here in Atlanta.
  6. Uconnect dying on my ‘21 Overland.

    You have to get low and look up just to the right of the steering column near and above transmission hump.
  7. Uconnect dying on my ‘21 Overland.

    This might worth a shot. I keep getting UConnect service alerts. This solved it. The brains on the UConnect lives under the dash near steering wheel and is easy to get to. I unlatched the power cord to the unit (circled in red) and then I gently pushed all the connections going to the unit...
  8. Mopar Cold Air Intake parts

    Here’s a thought. Last year I bought a partial Mopar OEM CAI from a member on this forum. He was selling everything from the kit but the hood cutout and filter. I was very happy to get the kit without the parts that I was not planning to use, plus a good discount. So there is probably a good...
  9. “Connection Services requires service”

    I'm out of warranty. I felt like I got lucky. Hopefully this will help others.
  10. “Connection Services requires service”

    SUCCESS so far After a deep dive on the net, I find that there is a module Mopar TBM2 unit that is the brains of the UConnect system. It has inputs to the head unit and receives multiple antenna inputs from XM, cellular, and GPS. This unit is very easy to access. Just pull and remove the trim...
  11. “Connection Services requires service”

    2022 Gladiator Sport S. Just curious has is anyone have been able to resolve this at the dealership or at home hack? I still have a U Connect subscription that works fine. Even though the ASSIST has a red called alert light illuminated, it still works. Thanks. It’s just annoying on every start.
  12. The Pentastar tick of death?

    Sounds like mine. 2022 Sport S 3.6 46,000 with just slightly oversized tires as you can see in my profile pic. I think it’s normal. While parked, give it a rev or two, if no cam damage, the sound should not increase in frequency.
  13. I DID IT!!!

    I highly recommend the auto stop start eliminator. I know others will say just press the disable button every time you start the engine. After installing the auto stop start eliminator, it remembers the last selected position after the car is turned off...
  14. Dealership crossed threaded oil drain plug

    I plan to do all oil changes going forward. But I’m keeping the OEM drain bolt/gasket in my Jeep just in case.
  15. How do I charge my Battery?

    I think that’s normal, when in park mine will not rev over 3,000 too. I think it’s a protection from the computer.
  16. '22 Sport S Max Tow, Three Years / 30K in Review

    Nice write-up. I have 2022 Sport S too. Are you pleased with the Bilstein 5100? Big difference? Thanks.
  17. Oil - going from 0w20 to 0w40

    I changed my 0w-20 oil to 0w-30 last week. I know it might the “placebo effect,” but the engine seems to be smoother and quieter. I’ve been watching the oil pressure and oil temps, they seem to be the same as when 0w-20 was used.
  18. Dealership crossed threaded oil drain plug

    Went ahead and replaced the oil pan. Was going to wait until fall, but without having a heated garage, I thought the RTV application and curing would do better in the warmer weather. Had to make a quick trip to Harbor Freight (sigh) to get a Icon torque inch Lbs. wrench. My other torque...
  19. Overdrive or not?

    Interesting. This is my first transmission with 8 gears and I wondered if both 7 and 8 are both overdrive.
  20. Oil - going from 0w20 to 0w40

    I plan to switch from 0w-20 to 0w-30 next oil change. This is my first Blackstone report from my latest oil change on 0w-20. It’s to establish a baseline. What’s y’all’s thought on the results? Thanks
