JL in Europe

[lohr500]

Mine is the same taram. When in Auto mode, the a/c light isn't on.
But the a/c definitely works in auto mode as the cabin gets really cold if you set both driver and passenger side temperatures to LOW (Or if you have the drivers and passenger temp controls synced together an controlled just by the driver's side).
I guess the lack of an a/c light when in Auto is just a Jeep thing. I can live with it though!!

that's good to know if true, the manual is a bit vague on this subject!

For me Aircon on = Light on! , why wouldn't it be

yea it’s not a full Auto climate control in the Wrangler, not mine anyway, not sure it’s an option?

bit rubbish like you say

Look, but I am 200% sure the A/C goes on when the AUTO mode is engaged and the A/C is not lit on - I can hear the compressor starting and the fan of A/C radiator... and the cold air blows! Probably should ask someone from the US owners - what will they say...

... and the cold air blows!

That is that Cyprus sea breeze, not your airco!

I must admit the manual. Is a little vague here, but it does say Max A/C

Anyway, I'm happy that actually A/C is on in Auto mode, even with the A/C light off, though this is very strange indeed.

Just got a reply from Quadratec REconfirming that they have no Front Differnecial covers for EU M210 Dana axle avaialble fro Sale. And whatever they have for M210 will not fit EU axles.
Does anyone knows whats the story how come the diff cover in EU is differente to US. is there a product for EU version owners?

I guess there is about a zero percent chance the bolt pattern is different between the US and EU variants.
The only difference is a slight variance in axle length because we get CV joints.
Since they do not have one there they cannot confirm it and therefore will not run the risk of telling you yes.

 

[taram]

I agree with the above said - they just don’t have any info on EU spec vehicles. I am 99% sure that in the worst case you probably will have to alter/drill bolt holes or something like that... the cover itself should fit, though I’m not a big specialist in this to be 100% sure.

Does anyone know if the European JL hood will accept the US Rubicon hood vents? Has anyone tried this? I was told by a vendor that the hood vents are interchangeable between the two hoods. Thanks.

What do the Euro vents look like?

Export hood vent attached. I was told the US Rubicon hood vents are interchangeable with this and vice-versa. Looking for confirmation if anyone in Europe has done this.

Sure looks like it would, if the outer dimensions are the same. I honestly wonder why they bothered with the difference between the two? Strange.

 

[Wraith]

I think I answered the question myself. Side by side they are very different.

Maybe the Euro versions are actually functional. The only vent in ours is the tiny drain hole for rain water! Lol!
