  1. Change tire size without leaving the dongle in place.

    I set my tire size with JSCAN. You do need a SGW bypass of some kind (Tazer, ECRI) to actually perform the change, but once it's done you can take the SGW bypass out and the tire size stays programmed. I can see how using JSCAN for some things might be preferable vs a Tazer since there's no...
  2. I may have to take my Jeep to the dealership to check an engine noise, should I put on my stock intake and take off my cold air intake?

    If improving the efficiency of the vehicle was this easy, don't you think Jeep would have done it already? Every minuscule improvement in MPG is worth a lot to a manufacturer. I agree, take it off. You can argue MM Act all you want, but the dealer/Jeep have an army of lawyers who you probably...
  3. CarPlay Navigation

    I got mine on Amazon, probably have some there for the bigger 2024 screens. Or maybe someone with a 2024 can chime in with what they got that works well.
  4. CarPlay Navigation

    A glass screen protector like you use on your phone. I was really careful with my 7" radio yet there was still a wear mark on the screen from pressing a few common areas. I put on one on my 8.4" screen almost the day I installed it to prevent this from happening again.
  5. MPG impact of bigger tires

    I went from the stock 245/75/17s on my Sport S to KO3s at 275/70/17. Adjusted speedometer with JSCAN, it's dead nuts on vs GPS and roadside radar signs. Given the exact same driving, I've lost about 2 MPG with the new tires, probably more on the highway. They are bigger, and substantially...
  6. JSCAN - You should get your "Token" and keep it for future use!

    Thanks, just saved off my JSCAN token as well!
  7. Can the Pentastar 3.6L VVT e-torque Performance benefit from Premium fuel

    Yep, the sell lower octane at high altitude because the air is less dense so you can get away with lower octane. That kind of all goes out the window though with a turbo or supercharger though.
  8. Can the Pentastar 3.6L VVT e-torque Performance benefit from Premium fuel

    The only thing the computer does is advance or retard spark to prevent detonation. Putting in higher octane gas may let the computer advance the spark a little bit potentially but not anything you're likely to notice. The computer has no idea what octane gas you're running.
  9. Service dept's response to a P0401 error code

    Was that a Jeep extended warranty or aftermarket? Typically the factory extended warranty is as stated, 5 years, 75,000 miles from in-service date, not added onto the factory warranty terms. Not sure how aftermarket ones run. Also wonder since that seems to be an EGR code if that might also be...
  10. Jeep Wave oil changes?

    Wish I could gift you mine :) Never used any of them. It's so easy to change the oil I can be done in less time than it would take to drive to my dealer.
  11. Accuracy of JL tire Pressure on Dash?

    Yeah, I guess it was only available for a short time. I can select it from the head unit, and as you fill up the tires when you get to the TPMS recommended pressure the horn honks to let you know that tire is done and you can move on to the next one.
  12. Question regarding tire/wheel size 33" vs 35"

    No idea, but comparing 285/70/17 vs 315/70/17 (pretty sure that's the sizes for 33 vs 35s on Wranglers) shows the 33 to be approximately 11.2" wide, and the 35 to be 12.5" wide. Since half the width would be towards the inside of the tire, that should be a total of 1.3" wider overall just due to...
  13. Question regarding tire/wheel size 33" vs 35"

    35s will be wider than 33s, but not enough to account for 6.5". The higher end models such as Rubicons do have wider axles too from what I recall. Just slapping 33's on there isn't going to recover 6.5" of width.
  14. Wiper blads (non-dealership)

    I usually wait for a sale at Costco and pick up a pair then. Usually around $8 or so per blade, typically replace them once a year but my Jeep is garaged most of the time so the sun doesn't cook them too bad.
  15. Accuracy of JL tire Pressure on Dash?

    When I use the Tire Fill Alert feature, the system has to be able to update without driving or motion of the tires to work. Not sure if the TPMS sensors are told somehow to update more frequently or if they just update every time the pressure changes by a few PSI regardless. Guessing the sensors...
  16. oil too full

    My 2.0 is always about 1/4 inch above full too, and I change my own oil so I know how much I put in. Came that way when it was new, and it's been that way after each oil change with the proper amount of oil. I wouldn't worry about it.
  17. Replaced 12v battery on my 2019 e-torque. Now stop/start doesn't work

    Awesome. Real test is if ESS works a month or two from now, or if it gives up the ghost again.
  18. Tire Size Calibration Tool - Your Favorite?

    Yes, you are correct. I misread your original post.
  19. Strike Four, You're OUT

    Or a few days. Even if I top mine off with the NOCO, a few days sitting in the garage and ESS quits working again right away.
