But the armchair mathematicians on this site assured me that tire size programming Couldn't Possibly trigger this error! OP, sorry you're having this trouble. As far as we've seen info posted on this forum, once that error shows up, only the dealer can clear it. If there's another way to do...

I still suspect what we're seeing in that photo is the cutout on the winch bumper itself, being too small and "sticking out" into the larger opening framed by the fairlead. Tell you what - if I'm wrong, on some future occasion when I'm down there in SoCal and we get a chance to wheel together...

Here's mine for comparison:

It's not the edge of the winch bumper? If so, that's crazy. Sure looks like we're looking through the fairlead and seeing the slot in the bumper to me. But you're there looking at it in person, not me. Whatever it is, it's no good, and needs to be completely smooth, or this will happen...

This setup is no good. You can see the sharp edge running around the perimeter inside the fairlead. The hawse fairlead opening must be *smaller* than the opening it is protecting, not larger. This is almost the same as not having a fairlead at all.

I'm mystified by what you then use as the primary support? Ramps? That would be OK for an oil change, but not very helpful when working on tire rotations, suspension, or brakes. If not ramps or jack stands, then what?

He said that they're the same thing.

That's a pretty nice weather seal gutter on your garage door. Rather than defeat it to run a cable, maybe cut a hole in the wall and install a tiny pet door that you can pass the cable through?

Drat. Sorry to hear that. Since you also wrote: Do you by any chance have "gap insurance" which covers the difference between what you owe on a vehicle and what it's worth in the event of it being totalled out? If not, it's going to suck to pay off a loan on a vehicle that no longer exists...

@Alyssa s So it's been a week now, don't leave us hanging here, what's the final resolution; was it totalled out or not?

When my Jeep was new, I cycled thru the 2hi/4hi 4lo swaybar disconnect once a day in my driveway just to work the mechanism and get it to loosen up. No need for even a 1/4 mile drive.

I admit to having misunderstood the original question. I also admit to being at a bit of a loss to what appears to be the revised question: "When the door is locked, I don't want the door latch handle to automatically unlock it." Since there's also a lock/unlock button on the inside of the...

If you "lock" the jeep, the alarm will go off if they're opened in this way. That plus leaving the torx bolts in place, plus the hassle of unplugging the cable ought to be enough to deter casual thieves, no? I've had cars where the interior handle was broken, and to open the door I had to roll...

Desire for a 36" tire is a symptom of "Internet Overthink" IMO. "35. no. 37. no. 35. No! 37. No! 35... but!! 37????? ......... I must need 36!" Pick a size and be happy. There's less difference there than you probably think. If you're badly on the fence, 35 is probably a better choice for...

This just means the auto was seamlessly downshifting in situations where you weren't bothering to downshift the manual. To me, this suggests you'd be happier with the automatic.

While that's true, it would be rather unusual for a position sensor that had been properly functioning to *suddenly* stop performing, immediately after a clutch service that required removing and re-installing the transmission. Seems more likely that a connector or the sensor itself was not...

When a pin is used with a strap, the loading is different than when it's used with a hitch ball. With a hitch ball, it's a shear load right at the edge of the receiver. With a strap, the load is on the center of the pin. There's a bending moment with greater leverage. Pins have been known to...

Looks like an FRS/GMRS radio to me. To use them in a group, you agree on a "channel" and a "privacy code." I prefer "none" for privacy code, since all it'll do is keep you from hearing other folks on the same channel. That sounds great until you realize you're then likely to be transmitting...

I'll just leave this here. Seems like a receptive group: https://www.amazon.com/Younger-Next-Year-Strong-Smart-Until-dp-1523507926/dp/1523507926/ref=dp_ob_title_bk

they've released a schedule and depending on when your jeep was built you may or may not be eligible yet to have the recall performed. it's a software update combined with a clutch replacement. nobody knows for sure if it's actually a materially different clutch, but everyone who's looked at...
