Soo the light went off, it still shows the code on the dash display if you do the 3x key jingle trick, but no check engine light.

Cat is leaking from the sure and around the upper 02 sensor on that cat, but only showing p071 code, both with reader and the three key turn trick. Runs fine, the only reason I mentioned sport is because I have the same Jeep and year and motor in the sport package and it got much better milage...

So o tapped it and the outer layer peeled off. What am I looking for to order a replacement, Drivers side cat? Nothing else looks anything like it when trying to order new part. I perfer to buy the part and have the local garage do it, he only orders from NAPA because they are the only ones...

Direct quote "an exhaust leak, that far upstream would only be forcing cleaner air through the exhaust therefore not trigger any codes because nothing would read high"

Yea those Help forums where they claim they have "real mechanics" answering questions. Two different places claiming to be "Jeep Experts" told me that lol, guess they are not as they claim to be.

Would that cause my milage to crap out, and I was told by several "experts" that would it Not cause the lean fuel code, just an emmisiions code that if it was an air problem causing lean fule it would be intake and not exhaust.

So I bought a 2003 Jeep Renegade last week and it just started throwing the P0171 code, only that code. I know it can be allot of things but I know for certain it needs an spark plugs and I found this rotten pipe. I had a sport model so I know this thing is burning more gas than it should...

I got everything except the rust issues fixed, runs good, a few cold mornings the remote starter came in handy. They didn't strip the O2 censors they put in the wrong size and used the goop to seal it. Now to remove the cancerous rust and put on new tires.

Ah a fellow northerner! My old pickup was 2 wheel drive and only had 14" rims, gonna be nice this winter having something in 4 wheel. The wife has a AWD C-RV but I rarely get to drive it without her in the vehicle because, I feel anything with a turbo needs be driven aggressively, and she...

So I just got a new to me 2003 Jeep Liberty. I basically got it for $200 because it had 185K on it, some dings, and needed brakes and the owner had bought it new, and decided to upgrade. I had purchased it just because it had working 4 wheel and could tow my work trailer until my truck was...

Belt was just changed, still looks new, alternator seized and belt broke so they replaced it right before they sold it to me, the new alternator still had SKU stickers on it.

So I scraped allot of that adhesive they used off the censor and took it up my property road in the mud to check my trail cams, got stuck, put her in 4-wheel and went to take off, and coolant sprayed out my grill. I found the spot at the top where the last owner tried that JB Weld plastic patch...

problem found but not solved oxygen sensor smoking, well not the censor, whoever had this before must of stripped it and glued a new censor in, and the excess glue is burning off.

Took to the store and back, and at night its easier to the see the smoke, the smoke is coming up dead center of the engine, and definitely smells like oil. I feel like its Karma for immediately pulling the aftermarket radio out of my ranger and putting it in the Jeep, Jeep had a crappy...

This thing has allot of miles on it (185K), was supposed to be temporary vehicle while my pick up was getting repaired but I kinda fell for it on the drive home, so now I want to keep it going, a buddy of mine has one with 265K on so If i could get a year out of this one Id be happy.
