Please forgive me if this has already been addressed. My cursory search found nothing. 5-6 months ago I set my Tazer to remember the on/off state of my ESS button, which I set to “off.” Since a week after, the idiot light is on and i have the message to service the ESS system. Battery charge...

This morning I dropped off my 2021 JLUR 2.0T at the dealership for the inevitable paint warranty work. I was given a 2024 Willys JLU as a loaner. It has a soft top and a 3.6 eTorque. My wife also has a 2020 Sahara JLU 3.6 eTorque. I noted a few things I was impressed with, and a few things I...

I recently got my first pair of hearing aids (Rx and professionally tuned by a doctor), and was curious how they would change the audible Wrangler experience in my 2021 2.0L. Here are my subjective observations: 1. My 2.0L engine is STILL quiet, cold or hot, inside and outside the Jeep. 2...

My key fob has disappeared into a black hole, or perhaps a worm hole. I haven’t determined which yet. In short, I fumbled my key fob out of my pocket, and it dropped into that crevasse between the seat and the center console. It was at the top, easily visible, and easily retrievable. Or so I...

After being an advocate for replacing the stock halogen bulbs with LED bulbs, instead of paying a ton of money for the OEM LED headlight assemblies, or for a well-known brand of the same, I bit the bullet and just installed the True Mods headlight assemblies. I’m still good with the...

Who’s going besides I and my wife?

Pertinent data first: 2021 JLUR, 2.0T, 8-speed AT (of course) Approx 45K miles Same Tazer I’ve been using for years, no recent updates Maintenance is current, no other issues This seems to be a completely random, current “thing.” I use cruise control (old school) all the time. Recently, I will...

I am considering the idea of replacing our Jeeps’ batteries with LiFePO4 batteries, when the AGMs wear out. Has anyone done this? Will the stock alternators properly charge them? Anything I need to consider before doing this?

Just curious, good people. My wife and I have two JLU’s - hers a 2020 Sahara, mine a 2021 Rubicon. We drive my Rubicon for almost everything. It has 44K miles on the odometer. Her 5.5-year-old Sahara has only around 4K miles. That’s right, we‘ve had it a year longer than the Rubicon, but it...

I just came home from my buddy’s house next door. We spent all day slinging hot lead downrange; it was glorious!!! That is, until he pulled this out of a box of others, and gave it to me. It instantly threw me into an existential crisis. “Is there no escape from this horror?? IT’S...

An update on the install, and resolving a hardware problem. The bull bar-mounted trail camera has been giving me some problems. The video is extremely wavy as soon as I start driving. I contacted Wolfbox, and they immediately sent me another bumper camera and a new wire harness. I installed...

!@%! FRUSTRATED with the damn SGW and pulling the plugs to install a bypass. I’m putting my old ECRI in my wife’s Jeep. Aaaarrrgh! My dickbeaters are too damn big to fit up in there! I can depress the latch on the first plug, but cannot get my hand smashed up in there enough to grip the...

@Jeepjunkie, I expect you to be all over this thread with some helpful advice, you motor oil addict!🤣 Considering the known issues with the 3.6 liter engine, would an oil bypass filtration system (dual oil filter system) possibly mitigate those issues? If so, what system would you recommend...

First, yes, @WOLFBOX CAR LIFE gave me the system to review it, no charge, but also zero strings attached. It arrived yesterday; I installed it this afternoon. Sorta a Florida Man install; if you look very closely there are a few spots where wire is exposed. I’m good with that, for now. It was a...

*EDIT: IT WAS A GRAND CHEROKEE* This is somewhat related. My wife’s JLU has been at the shop for three weeks, getting the inevitable warranty paint work done. I was given a brand new Cherokee as a loaner. BLUF: I would never buy one, for a number of reason. The biggest reason though is the...

My apologies if this has already been addressed. This is a 7-year-old video. In the photo from the video, we are looking at the hood plunger switches of a JL/JLU. The guy in the video says all one must do to permanently disable ESS/ASS is to remove the plunger on the right, and the video shows...

Regarding my recent locker position sensor issue, as it is still under the powertrain warranty, with great trepidation I took it to the dealership service department in Sarasota, FL yesterday. BLUF: it‘s fixed for now, but getting there was a possibly-worse-than-usual demonstration of ignorance...

I’m looking for new input on this old topic/problem - the failing of locker position sensors and associated lights/indicators. Yes, I have read a plethora of related threads here, over the years. However, my situation *may* be different, thus this post. I use a Tazer. While in 2WD the rear...

I know y‘all have seen it. I also know many of you don’t see the mistake. For those who do see it repeatedly, does it drive you a little nuts too? On one thread it was expressed as a 24” Rubicon on 35” tires. I am STILL trying to figure out what a 24 inch Jeep, with 35 inch tires, is and looks...

I will lay out my list if others respond.
