  1. 2024 JL Willys XR - No auto button for Climate Control

    Just bought a new Willys XR 2024. There is no "auto" set button for Climate Control - neither as a physical push button nor in the Comfort menu. The middle dial has the semi circular top button as "Off", and the bottom semi circle where the "Auto" push bottom should be has "Max A/C" instead...
  2. Is my tire good?

    I noticed a small cut/scrape on the sidewall less than half an inch. I am very careful in not scraping curbs so may have happened on the road changing lanes and getting a scrape from some damaged road reflector maybe. But any who, is my tire still good, and damage only cosmetic I hope?

  5. New JLUR XR running abnormally hot?

    Got a new JLUR XR 2023 on Friday 10/14. I am seeing temps a little too high compared to my other JLs or JTs. It is 3.6L E-torque with XR package. Also equipped with Cold Air Intake - factory installed but no hood cut out. I was in stop n go traffic running into frequent traffic lights. Ambient...
  6. Mopar Factory Ordered Cold Air Intake Questions

    I picked up my 2023 JLUR XR from the lot. It was custom ordered by someone but he changed his mind. I have a good relation with the sales person and he immediately called me if I was interested and I bought it within the next couple of hours. Its a unicorn as it met all my requirements for a...

  8. Any diesel precautions to take with temps falling below freezing in Las Vegas?

    Las Vegas weather forecast for this weekend is showing temps below freezing in the night. A few questions for the group: 1. Do I need to add any fuel additive or would I be OK as I would not be driving in the night anyway? When I drive, it will be in the morning and will be above freezing. 2...
  9. An active regen happened below 51% soot in the DPF

    I did some city street driving this morning - about 12 miles back and forth. When I started this morning, Scangauge displayed 43% STM, and when I came back home, STM rose to about 48%. Regen count in the history of the Jeep was 3, and I had the last active regen some 800 miles back (approx.) In...
  10. Thinking of getting the Scanguage II

    I am considering getting the Scanguage II today. Mainly to monitor turbo temps and EGT, and monitor passive/active regenst and STM. The setup is simple from what I have seen on YouTube videos. Are there any suggestions on how to best route the cable and ideal/safe place to keep the display...
  11. Tire Pressure for stock EcoDiesel Willys tires

    Since the door jamb's 37 psi is for the default 3.6L engine configuration, and the diesel engine is much heavier, should cold pressure on EcoDiesel Wranglers be 2-3 psi higher to match the 37 psi for 3.lL engines?
  12. DPF Misconceptions

    Found this very good video on some common misconceptions about Diesel Particulate Filter, and how DPF may be getting an unnecessary bad rap on modern diesel engines. I wonder if the tuning they are talking about exists in US?
  13. Wrangler Diesel Engine Questions

    The 2020 3.0L is my first diesel engine vehicle and I opened this topic to ask questions as a novice to this engine. I read the Diesel Supplement Manual on the warning light for "Water in Fuel". I went underneath the Jeep and located the Water in Fuel Drain valve. It may require removing the...
  14. Driving performance between JL Willys vs JL Rubicon

    What performance difference would I see between Jeep JL Unlimited Willys with 32.1" stock tires and 3.45 axle ratio compared with JLU Rubicon with 33" stock tires and 4.10 axle ratio? Would I see noticeable performance difference in: 1. Torque 2. Acceleration 3. Driving on hilly roads/incline...
  15. While braking, feel vibration in clutch pedal when pressed

    In manual transmission JLUR, as I am braking for oncoming traffic signal, and press on the clutch pedal to bring vehicle into neutral, I get this weird vibration in the clutch pedal. Anyone else feel the same thing? Happens only when clutch pedal pressed during braking.
  16. Clutch Recall (FCA W12 | 20V-124) on 2018-2020 JL Manuals [overheating clutch pressure plate]

    Just saw this: NHTSA Recall Number: 20V-124 Recall Date: March 3, 2020 Manufacturer Recall Number: W12 SUMMARY: In some circumstances, the clutch pressure plate may become overheated through friction, which may lead the pressure plate to fracture. A fractured pressure plate may crack or...
  17. Is idling or cooling off before turbo engine shut off still necessary?

    In the 80s or even 90s, it was recommended that after driving at highway speeds or driving under load, not to shut off the engine quickly too but to dive the last 2 miles or so like grandma, and/or idle for 30 - 60 seconds to prevent oil coking. Does this sound advice still hold true for a 2020...
  18. Thud sound after I stopped and shut the motor

    Today, after I pulled in the garage, came to a complete stop and just turned off the engine, I heard a thud like sound from the floor of the JLUR - it seemed to come from in between the front seat and the parking brake area. It sounded like I dropped my phone but the phone was in my pocket. And...
  19. How do you open the coolant cap on JLUR 2.0L?

    How do you open the cap to the Coolant reservoir if I need to add or maintain coolant? I get only clicks when I tried to turn it anti-clockwise. Also added some gentle pressure to try to open it like a medicine bottle cap. There is a notch on one of the sides of the cap. Does it require a flat...
  20. Automatic transmission occasionally upshifts late - up to 4K RPM

    I have noticed on my new JL 3.6L Rubicon that sometimes transmission shifts very late. RPM can go up to 4K to 4.2K before it upshifts. I have noticed that mostly around 35-50 mph speed. And it occasionally does that. I can understand if it is happening on incline but noticed that on flat surface...
