There's a difference between censored and moving things behind a paywall or monetizing, or keeping things out of the hands of people who think they know what they are doing, but don't
Censoring is when you post something about a vaccine and it goes against some official word or agenda, so your post is hidden.
Not finding a TSB you think is there isn't censorship. It's being misled or believing there is something there but there is not.
And a lot of folks still connect the jump to high volume mode at 3000 rpm is directly connected to high lift mode. Either can happen without the other.
I think people confuse the two

Because that's what this thread was started for, info related to a TSB that I was informed of partially by a local dealer. and couldn't find a thread when searching. Maybe you had good results but I did not. Take a nap ya grump old farts.
Yeah, a TSB that apparently doesn't exist. And I agree that we didn't need to bring up censorship and whatnot, so shame on whoever did that.

.....oh wait, it was you.

It would be great if you could also contribute something positive to this thread like a link to the TSB you keep talking about.

At least I have an excuse to be grumpy.....getting up hours early all week, sitting waiting for wife to get out of surgery then taking care of her for 3 more months, sticking around home, trip to FL cancelled, can't work under cars any more, and the electrodes to help with ET causing fatigue and mental changes. Could be worse, though....... I'm looking down at the grass, not looking up at it.

Or keep bitching about it instead of leading by example. Maybe read before speaking, regarding the lack of a link.

If humane flesh is a good fertilizer, we may have stumbled onto something I will be good at.

I provided a link. You said it was the wrong one, but it was exactly the number you gave us. So we’re all still waiting to hear what the “right” one is.

I’m still very interested in what TSB this actually is.

You win, I forgot about that, whoops! Damn TBI 🤷‍♂️

I'll try to remember to stop in after work today since I'll be driving near the dealer that (half) gave me the TSB info.

There's always Soylent Green


Anyway, early on the one and only TSB that had anything to do with oil pressure and BTW, happened to match the tsb number as well, was linked to. A search of the NHTSA and other places confirmed what I was already confident of. . . there's no cam related TSB out there other than what we've already posted elsewhere and laughed about for many months - such as the one saying if the cams are bad use these parts in this kit to fix, and blamed it on "manufacturing defect". What a joke.

Weird. I went in today for my second oil change at 10k. I told them about the funky noise I get at 3-8mph when just hitting the accelerator going forward. So far after the oil change it ain’t doing it on pavement anyway. I’ll see when I head to the ranch. I told them it sounds briefly like a garden spade being scraped across concrete real fast. I wonder if it had something to do with this TSB?

I will say so far Jeep’s unforthcoming is right on par with Land Rover, might try a Raptor next 🤣😂🤣 All the service centers around me are saying to diagnose it has to be dropped off for a minimum of 48 hrs with no loaner, what a scam. 🤣😂🤣

I should get started on the refurb of my 69 Gladiator with the Buick motor. 🤣😂🤣

The good news is typically if I haven’t had a major issue by the first several thousand miles the way I drive and the terrain I go through, it will last a good many miles.

I am sold on Falken tires though.

Hopefully I won’t get the magic words that made me bounce out of Landrover, “ sir, you are not the typical North American Landrover user” 🤣😂🤣. That means I use it, not just for taking kids to soccer practice. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Ahhh Landrover sells an off road capable vehicle that they don't want ypu to use in an off road manner except for 1 time a year when ya decide to go fishing in the mountains and drive up some gravel road to a state forest road and park it for 3 days whilst you backpack into the wilderness for 10 miles..
Shame on you landrover. Naughty naughty White Eagle shame on You for using a vehicle as advertised ..😂😂😂
I swear Jeep is getting the same way.
A guy said to me you actually climb and go off road with your jeep ? I said thats what it was meant to do..lol good grief Mall Crawling is becoming a real problem 😂🤣

And what kills me and actually gets me fired up is listening to all the guys who have went crazy places and done crazy things with their jeep . But the tierods went bad or the ball joints are wore out or it gets 13mpg.
I supposed if someone ends up making a vehicle that never has a parts failure and never needs servicing and gets 40mpg even in 1st gear while climbing for 25miles then every auto maker will be out of business in no time flat .

Parts failure is one thing but when one has concern over something not right and they don’t catch it then it breaks on the trop and you are subject to denial, gaslighting, or inhouse handling so it doesn’t effect JD Powers or consumer reports is another. And, none of these trips were vehicle strenuous.

In my cases with Land Rover they say, “what are you complaining about, it was fixed under warranty“ but the thousands I lost on limping back to a dealership and cutting a trip short means nothing.

The Land Rover Mafia was so bad I offered to buy a new one in one state, they refused to sell me one said “you have to buy from the closest dealership to your home” and then contacted my home dealership with all of the lowdown and my complaints. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 To test this theory again, I drove up to Austin to buy one but they would not sell it to me, said “San Antonio was my closest dealership”.

Day 2 without the noise, they did something because I now have a Rubicon animation on the screen that wasn’t there before.

Day 4 without the noise. If they fixed this on my Jeep they darn sure didn’t discuss it or even acknowledge when I told them of the symptoms or TSB. I totally disagree with secrecy !

I was hyper aware of whatever noise it was since it occurred between 3 and 8mph usually and consistently as I tap the gas to slightly accelerate. The reason I heard it so much and so dang aware is because that speed and condition is most of the trip into my ranch with window rolled down. Happened in 2H, 4H, 4L, lockers engaged or disengaged, sway bar connected or disconnected, didn’t matter.

ALWAYS AT LOW RPM
