    Liberty down after flat tow

    I flat tow a '05 Liberty Sport with 42RLE transmission. I think it has the (Command-Trac) NV241 xfer case, but not certain of that. When towing, I have the following: - transfer case in Neutral - transmission in Park - ignition switch in the OFF UNLOCKED position Have not encountered the...

    TransMichigan

    My 05 Liberty with 145K on transmission does the same thing occasionally. When shifting from Park or Reverse into drive, you may be able to mitigate the problem you describe by using this sequence: [Park or Reverse] -> [Neutral] -> wait 15 seconds -> [Drive].

    Before you go off the rails with complex troubleshooting, I would suggest you force the electronics to re-learn the shift points. This is a link to a different forum that has instructions for forcing the transmission to re-learn...

    how to replace fuel filter 2004 liberty 3.7L

    Why do you need to replace it? The filter is a fine mesh bag inside the fuel tank. I believe the fuel filter is intended to last as long as the fuel pump. It is not intended to be replaced periodically like a canister type of fuel filter.

    No Start, Key Won’t Turn Far Enough

    Thanks for the details. I think I will just go ahead and replace the part now with a new one so it doesn't fail when I am in the backcountry.

    No Start, Key Won’t Turn Far Enough

    How many miles are on your vehicle? I'm wondering if I should replace the part on my 2005 Liberty now, before it actually falls.

    '03 Jeep Liberty Mopar Radiator

    Sounds good. I know how frustrating it can be finding parts for older vehicles, and the dealers are often clueless. Glad you were able to find what you were searching for.

    '03 Jeep Liberty Mopar Radiator

    52080120AE does NOT have integral transmission cooler according to my parts info. My parts info does not list this part - 52080118AB . My guess is they changed the design from integral trans cooler to separate trans cooler after your Liberty was built. So the 52080118AB is probably the old...

    Transmission service manual for 42RLE (non-VLP)

    I see the factory service manual for 2005, and it has section 21 for the 42RLE transmission. But the info in that section does not provided guided troubleshooting/testing steps for specific diagnostic trouble codes. It seems the manual I mentioned in my original post for the 45RFE transmission...

    Transmission service manual for 42RLE (non-VLP)

    Thanks - I have that info. But that FSM does not seem to include the Diagnostic Codes for the transmission and the respective diagnostic steps and corrective actions. On that same link you provided, there is a Transmission service manual for the 45RFE transmission. I was hoping to obtain the...

    Transmission service manual for 42RLE (non-VLP)

    I found the trans service manual for 45RFE transmission, but I cannot find the service manual for the 42RLE. In case it matters, I have a 2005, therefore it does not have VLP. If a transmission service manual exists for the 42RLE, I would appreciate a pointer. Thanks much.

    Automatic Transmission Fluid Change

    General Motors has issued tech bulletin in the past advising GM dealerships to not use transmission flush. I know this is a Jeep forum, but if an auto manufacturer is recommending against trans flush, then I am definitely NOT going to do it on my vehicle.

    Thanks for that additional detail for the HVAC mode door/actuator issue. This video provides an interesting workaround for the actual root cause of the issue that I thought was very innovative.
