    IAC control bolt size

    I have a 2006 Liberty sport 3.7L. I would like to take out the IAC control for passage cleaning. There is a single torx head bolt holding the control in place. Could someone please tell me the correct torx head bit that would fit this bolt? Thank you.

    Request: How To Clean the Throttle Body

    Does anyone know why carbon builds up on the throttle body? Are the intake valves still open during the exhaust stroke letting carbon build up under the throttle plate? Thanks.

    moog lbj instead of original

    I don't have to pay labor if I just do the recall. I have to pay labor if I have them put the moog's in. That labor charge will include the time they spend pressing in the dc replacement ball joints, reassembling the jeep and declaring it a safe vehicle than taking it all apart again. I will be...

    moog lbj instead of original

    I have an 06 liberty and would like to have the lower ball joints replaced with the moog greaseable ball joints. I would pay for the labor because they are after market items. I called two local jeep dealers and both service managers said the same thing: The recall has to be done first. They...

    extend ball joint life

    To extend the life of the original ball joints should this be done? Take a spray can of white lithium grease and using the spray straw up under the lip of the dust boots give all four ball joints a shot of grease at each tire rotation. Would this void my warranty? I was planning on doing this...

    displaying dtc's

    On my new 06 gas sport I tryed to display any dtc's using the key on/ off three times quickly routine. Nothing happened. Is it because there is no dtc's to display or is the procedure incorrect? Holding the trip odometer reset button down while turning the key on is for the instrument cluster...
