E-Torques check in.

2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport S with 61k miles now I have replaced the windshield once, and hasn't cracked again *knock on wood*. Original batteries, normal oil changes at 5k intervals with premium package done at 30k and 60k miles.

I have left my pod lights on overnight by accident quite a few times and it has given me the warning that the "battery is charging aux switches unavailable." Warning eventually went away after driving with the air off and windows down so it's all charged back up

Just hit 30K on our '23. Knock on wood, and not cylinders, no issues at all. It is NOT a V8, that's for sure, but I like the 8-speed auto on it.

I am happy to report that so far no issues with my 2023 JLU Rubicon eTorque. Original battery shows no issues and windshield is fine. I do run premium fuel when hitting the trails. Don’t know if it does any good other than for me thinking it might help in the more extreme environments with higher ambient temperatures which are frequent in my case. For fun I put a remote temperature sensor on the rear differential and so far max recorded high was just under 160 degrees. I can’t say I like the coolant temperatures running in the mid 230s and some times higher on hot days under heavy load. I’ve been thinking about installing an RPM extreme fan controller but don’t want to risk any engine warranty concerns with that modification yet. Reports on it seem pretty favorable on better controlling engine temps. Not sure what windshield issues have been a reported problem. Attached list of service & mods performed thus far. I used a similar maintenance program for my 2004 TJ I had for over 20 years and never had any problems other than continuing maintenance. I am hoping for a similar result with my JLU.

23k on my 2023 high tide. No issues, knock on wood. Have the Factory installed gorilla glass, and other than some very small pits that you can't see unless you're driving directly into the sun. I was a little worried about the high coolant temps, see 230+ during the summer, but winter it never gets above 200.

I have a 2021 E torque V6 at 32k miles still have the original 12v battery and the volts are still where they should be.
The 48v E Torque battery has been great no problems, this Jeep has been very good to me so far.
I even have my original windshield, only oil changes and filters so far.
When I brought it to the dealer last service they said something about the diff needed to be changed but when I picked it up they said it either did not need to get done.
How's your E-Torques holding up?

I traded a 21 4xe piece of crap. On a 23 3.6 etorque. No issues

Why in a E-torque thread is everyone talking about windshields?I didn’t realize they were interconnected.
Just saying…..

Really unfortunate Jeep didnt put more effort into this system, it really knocks it out of the park. The low end torque fill bellow 1500 rev makes this two door into a little roadster with the 6. Taking the shitty part of the 6 with the low end being apathetic and makes a sweet ass package. It's fun "launching it" from a dead stop.

105k on our ‘21 3.6 eTorque. Just normal maintenance besides a very very small oil seep at the oil pan.

Replaced the 12v battery Dec ‘23 for the first time.

If you need help on how to replace the belts and pulleys….

Been looking for a how to for the 2.0 e-torque for a bit now actually. Mine is creeping up to 80k, so in about a year or two I’ll get rolling on replacing belts and tensioners around 90k.

But no issues to report as of yet aside from a seepage coming out of said tensioner but no charging or battery related issues. Still charges my battery at 14-14.5v

Can’t watch at work, but does the 3.6 have the gnarly looking dual tensioner like the 2.0 has?

I think it works well in the Jeep. They tried to see me a Ram with it and I said no. Very happy I did. Both do what they do well. 5.7 really doesn’t need it.

Actually this is not a Chrysler product, it come from a third party.

Just under 13K miles on my '22 3.6, (it sits in the shop a lot with its 12V battery on a trickle charger
So far, flawless

It has one hydraulic and one mechanical for the main drive belt. I only replaced the pulley for the hydraulic as it worked great and has no leakage. I gave the part number for only the pulley. Benny here could help with the tensioner part if you need it.

Yeah it would add a little more time swapping the hydraulic portion.

Hmm looking at the pic, how do you compress it enough to remove etc?

That’s not what I have. Check out the video so you can compare.

My 23 Wrangler Rubi 2 Dr. will be two years old next month and I have the eTorque ans I don't have any problems with only 10,000 miles. My Rubi has the 48 Volt Lithium battery that suppose to last 10 years. I do have the Stop/Start Eliminator installed.

In December, I replaced the OEM AGM battery with the Genesis Gen 3 Dual Battery System with Odyssey batteries and so far has been working great.

Which batteries did you get?
