  2. Are TSBs free? Outside warranty (Rear Defrost Tab Unattached)

    Having read the forums it looks like the rear defrost tab becoming unattached is pretty common (2020 JLU Sport S). I am now outside warrantt period (3yr/36K) but I notice several TSBs for this issue TSB: 23-089-0823 Rear Defroster Inoperative and TSB 08-052-20 Rear Window Defroster Inoperable...
  3. How do you know when to replace the auxiliary battery on the 2018 JL jeep wrangler?

    For the camping scenario I think a dual battery setup may be a good choice. It really depends on how you use your jeep. I considered the Genesis for a while but do not camp much and decided that the cost for a dual battery setup vs the AUX bypass was not the best choice for me but it may be a...
  4. How do you know when to replace the auxiliary battery on the 2018 JL jeep wrangler?

    The question is what do you mean by deleting the AUX. I think of deleting the AUX as removing it. I do not think it is necessary to delete the AUX because bypassing it does the same thing and I don't see any harm in leaving it in place after removing it from the circuit. I feel this way...
  5. How do you know when to replace the auxiliary battery on the 2018 JL jeep wrangler?

    Unless you are a fan of ESS I would consider just bypassing the Aux battery and then it does not need to be replaced. Just run off the main battery and when replacing the main replace with something a bit more beefy than the OEM (generally an aftermarket H7). See...

    Check this thread: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/easy-door-detent-pulling.72165/ Pics and instructions for using some 550 cord to pull it (the detent) back out.
  7. Auto start stop

    Read this thread: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/jumperless-aux-battery-bypass.95945/ By removing fuse 42 and disconnecting the appropriate wire to the battery you can take the Aux battery out of the equation without actually removing the battery. It does not impact anything...
  8. Coolant reservoir level question

    Mine is a 2020 2.0t JLU Sport also has a black tank. This is the most annoying design ever. You have to unscrew the cap and use the dipstick built into the cap to check level. I seem to need to top off with about half a cup of coolant a month but cannot find a leak. Not sure if this is a...
  9. 60,000 mile Service on 2019 JL

    How would folks recommend adjusting the schedule for low mileage Jeeps? My Jeep generally sees <5K miles per year, I change oil at least once a year and the manual shows: Change manual transmission fluid if heavy usage: every 3 years Change transfer case fluid if fleet: every 6 years Change...
  10. Penzoil Platinum Ultra

    The oil cap may still say API SN PLUS depending on year of Jeep. I pulled the manuals for various years. The MY2020 manual says MS-13340 or API SN PLUS. The MY2021 manual says API SP/GF-6 and the MY2023 manual says API SP/GF 6A. The API SP supersedes API SN PLUS and GF-6A supersedes GF-6...
  11. Non-skid cargo liner/mat?

    I have been very happy with: https://www.amazon.com/FH-Group-F16400BLACK-Protection-Trimmable/dp/B01H4QPJ5S/ref=sr_1_1?crid=31LP5X97R8PGI&keywords=FH+Group+F16400BLACK&qid=1680203423&sprefix=fh+group+f16400black+%2Caps%2C187&sr=8-1 Needs some trimming to get it to fit but this was super easy...
  12. Recalls / TSB / Issues Bulletins for JL Wrangler. Check your JL for recalls.

    Is this thread still being updated. I was looking for this TSB in post #1 and did not see it,.
  13. Here’s my thoughts on a budget friendly lift to start off

    Another possibility is the AEV lift. Not quite as good for offroad as the Rock Krawler or Metalcloak but the AEV comes with a Procal which changes tire size and if that is all you need then it can save you some money if you are going for a lift and larger tires (often added with the lift). The...
  14. Best Paint for Side Steps/Rock Rails ?

    I am seeing some rust spots on my sides steps/rock rails. I don't think the salt they put on the roads in Chicago is helping. The plan is to clean the rust up and repaint the steps (black). Need some help figuring out the best paint. I don't want to remove the steps and spray so my target is...
  15. Auxiliary Battery Message

    Pretty sure the tow package already comes with the Group 94R vs Group 48 battery and also has a slightly higher amp alternator. I think if you replace the main it would most likely clear up your problems and then after you have ESS working you might want to read the thread on doing the Aux...
  16. Auxiliary Battery Message

    I get 12.7V when I press the start button without starting the jeep. This drops to 12.2V when starting. It goes to 14.3V when driving short distances. The 14.3V reflects the alternator recharging the battery. After driving for a while (30 miles or so) this will drop to the 13.7V-13.9V range...
  17. Disable Auto Start/Stop with JScan JL ?

    This will work but I am pretty sure that disconnecting one of these switches will result in the "Avengers" error/warning light. If you really want to get a start/stop eliminator that remembers last state when you turn the engine off, I have and would recommend www.smartstopstart.com If you...
  18. The Headrest Safe for Jeep JL Wrangler is cool ☘️

    Another great option for adding some small locking storage to Jeep is to attach ammo cans to the tailgate. Pretty easy DIY. See: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/diy-ammo-can-taillgate-storage.8421/ Drilling the ammo cans to attach means they are no longer as waterproof as...

    My first thought was to use a square spring based sunshade. A little different to the sunshade posted above in this thread but something like...

    Check this thread: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/oil-certifications-for-2-0t-ms-13340-sn-plus-sp.89502/ From what the thread says the oil cap may still say API SN PLUS.
