Well, I feel like I have been kicked while I'm down. My 2020 Rubicon(125k miles) developed the dreaded lifter tick, and I put it off until it became a clatter. Lesson learned. Both intake cams, all lifters and rockers replaced. Picked it up from the dealer and it ran great, quiet as a mouse. I...
Mine is in the shop at the moment to replace the starter. According to them the driver side exhaust manifold has to be removed. Mine is a 2 door 3.6, may be different for you.
I woke up to a low battery, 11.0volts.
Tried jumping it, it seemed like it pulled no load from the other vehicle. Towed it 35 miles down the beach to a motel and replaced the battery. Same issue, no crank, gauge showing 12.4 volts. The aux battery has been bypassed for a year, fuse pulled and...
20 rubicon 3.6 auto.
issue started after a three hr drive, pulled in to park and killed ignition. Jeep stayed running. Had to disconnect battery to get it to shut off. Let sit an hour and hooked battery back up. Jeep starts and runs briefly then shuts off, and will not start again until I...
Thanks for the info.
Front brake pads are almost gone, just replacing pads all the way around.
Cooling fan quit last month, came out of a conviniance store and found it running hot.
Thanks. I agree I considered it high milage for its age. I need to be able to put an equal number of miles on it in the next two years. What about timing chains? When should I look at doing that?
Thanks again.
That's not what the manual says. And that's why I'm asking here I'm looking for real world info. The manual says inspect. Not change. I did change it at 40K. It also says to change the cabin air filter every 30k miles. Feck I have to do it every other month. No offense, but I did RTFM.
I'm about to cross 88k miles on my '20 2 door rubicon. I've had to replace the cooling fan, I've replaced the belts, doing shocks tomorrow and a brake Job next month. Had plugs changed last month and what a difference! Also plan on changing differential fluid when I do the shocks. What should I...
My fan quit today at hour 5 of a six hour trip. I pulled in to a store, left the jeep running to keep the dog cool and when I came out I could hear coolant boiling. After letting it cool I was able to drive it home, as long as it was moving it got enough air to keep the temp at normal.
Fan has...
I hear ya, but if all I ever did in life was what I needed, life would be pretty damn boring.
Same reason I had a chevy s-10 with a 350 in it. Sometimes that little boy in me wants to feel the torque and smell the rubber.
I have narrowed down the issue, think it may be caused by the taser JL. Will find out this evening.
I have verified that the lights only go out when using cruise control, and half the time go out as soon as the cruise button is pressed. No issues when not using cruise. Unmarried taser and will...
