  1. 2023 3.6 eTorque Battery Jumpstart from dead 12v and issues

    Partially. It no longer discharges while just sitting but it still discharges while flat towing even with nothing electrical connected. Havenā€™t wanted to add a toad charger but Iā€™ve started looking at options. šŸ˜¢
  2. Jeep 4xe Power Box Experience In Joshua Tree National Park

    Tell her she would be able to enjoy her lattes and a hot shower while camping if you had the power box!šŸ¤£. Well maybe a short warm shower.šŸ¤£
  3. We want to hear from you!

    When the service writer, lead mechanic and parts person all emphatically claim that my eTorque Rubicon does NOT have any other battery than the main 12v battery, thereā€™s a serious training AND customer service problem! Stop adding new stuff and fix the existing support issues! Otherwise there...
  4. Anyone have TSB 09-012-22 performed on their 3.6 for spark knock and misfire CEL?

    Only 26,000. šŸ˜¢ Very little interstate/highway drivingā€¦mostly local and wheeling.
  5. Badlands winch

    Lots of choices in aftermarket bumpers that will accommodate that winch. Personally I wanted to keep the stock look so replaced my stock plastic with a stock steel and the winch fits neatly behind and below the bumper. It protects the winch line and keeps the grille area open for better...
  6. Anyone have TSB 09-012-22 performed on their 3.6 for spark knock and misfire CEL?

    What is recommended in the ownerā€™s manual. All oil changes so far have been at dealerships under the Wave program.
  7. Anyone have TSB 09-012-22 performed on their 3.6 for spark knock and misfire CEL?

    This is what the dealer found when they performed the TSB repair. No more knockā€¦so far.
  8. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    This is what they found when they performed the TSB repair. So far so good but it hasnā€™t been in the trails yet.
  9. Spark knock?

    This is some of what the dealer found when they recently performed the TSB repair. Carbon deposits can cause pinging/Preignition even with higher octane fuel. The replacement PCV valve was in a box with the new p/n but the actual valve had one of the previously mentioned p/n molded into the...
  10. Spark knock?

    Did you have the work done as described in the TSB?
  11. 2023 3.6 eTorque Battery Jumpstart from dead 12v and issues

    May have found a fix, at least for 2021 eTorque models. Yet another dealer ā€œcould not duplicate customer complaintā€ so I went to the service managers office and went into detail about the dead battery issue. He searched the TSB database and found TSB 08-168-23 which is a software update to the...
  12. Anyone have TSB 09-012-22 performed on their 3.6 for spark knock and misfire CEL?

    Most of Oklahoma is flat but there are more than a few places to wheel and plenty of locations where you can put a wrangler on a steep angle. (Yes, Iā€™ve been to them!) Iā€™ve read this entire thread and your lousy, unhelpful and rude responses arenā€™t helpful to anyone here seeking to make their...
  13. Spark knock?

    Refer to TSB 09-012-22 for a solution to the spark knock issue. If you are already knocking then a top end tear down is required to remove the carbon buildup. The solution is to replace the original PCV valve with a new design as listed in the TSB. The cause is too much oil getting through...
  14. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    The downside of leaving the flow the same is that engine oil continues to get into the intake and therefore into the combustion chamber. This causes carbon buildup on the valves, heads and piston which leads to preignition (spark knock) problems. Spark knock can likely result in broken piston...
  15. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    perhaps, but there are more than a few instances where the contents of a catch can was sucked into the intake on a significant angle. One thread here documents a few hydrolock situations and at least one thrown rod. Iā€™d rather fix the problem with a revised PCV valve.
  16. New Version of PCV

    2021 JLUR w/~25,000 miles. Slight knock at low rpm and mild loading. Warranty. Today dealer starts tearing down heads to perform TSB. They had to search for PCV listed in TSB but finally got it from dealer in S. Carolina. I requested them to keep the old PCV for me. Curious if any of this...
  17. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    Well, well, well. 2021 JLUR with around 25,000 miles. Been hearing a bit of spark knock (Preignition) on slow pulls at low rpmā€™s. Mentioned it during several service visits and dealers just shrugged their shoulders and claimed ignorance. Took it in for several items before end of warranty and...
  18. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    Been around long enough to remember all of the shadetree cures for carbon buildup. Iā€™d try that if it was out of warranty before taking the heads-off approach advocated by Jeep.
  19. Another spark knock thread... sorry

    My ā€˜21 JLUR has had the preignition knock (AKA Spark knock) for several years. Hardly noticeable in cool weather driving in the flatlands but very noticeable at higher altitudes pulling a slight load on the trails. Local dealership finally found a TSB referencing the issue. Itā€™s caused by...
  20. 2023 3.6 eTorque Battery Jumpstart from dead 12v and issues

    I could have written your post! Frustrating when your Jeep is having a seizure and you canā€™t shut it off!!
