Hi all,
I took delivery of my JL Rubicon Diesel a few weeks back . (My first Jeep). So far very happy with my purchase. The diesel performance is improving as expected and fuel economy gets better with each fill. Now averaging 9.1 l/100kms.
One thing I did experience was at the delivery of my vehicle. Upon leaving the dealers on a Saturday morning (service department closed), the DPF warning came up saying it was 100% full. Of course, this meant the vehicle was in limp mode and performance was restricted. I revisited the dealer on the Monday, and they corrected the issue by performing a reset of the DPF sensor parameters. Since then, running strong and no further issues.
I note there has not been much discussion, if any, on the 2.2l, so just wanting to see what other owners thought of the diesel. Granted the popular choice seems to be the petrol version, but I just like the low down, effortless torque of the diesel. Aside from the initial hiccup, I am not disappointed.
All the best.
