    Tire Pressure display

    My "understanding" (which is questionable!) is that the base TPM does not interact with the EVIC at all. It just emits a chime and one of the dummy lights (the "flat tire" icon) on the dash illuminates, indicating one of the tires is low. It's up to you to figure out which one, I guess. If I...

    Tire Pressure display

    This is getting more confusing by the minute! My guess is badger has it right - all '05 Limiteds will chime on a "low" pressure situation, but only those with the $75.00 option get to see their actual pressures on the EVIC. If anyone's experience is different, "chime" in! (no pun intended). I...

    Tire Pressure display

    Does your sticker (if you still have it) show the tire pressure feature and if so, is it "part" of the "G" package or seperated out? I am just trying to figure out if I am even supposed to have it....

    Mine is an '05. Looks like they changed it - that's probably why the brochure is wrong.....oh well...

    Tire Pressure display

    My 2005 Liberty brochure shows this feature as being "included" (standard) on a Limited with "G" package - however I seem to recall looking at Window stickers that listed this as an "extra". I stepped through my EVIC displays and I don't have it. Also the Jeep web site shows it as a seperate...

    How did you first find your KJ?

    I have been a truck person for years, but was finally getting tired of the parking issues and gas-guzzling. We live out in the sticks, so I need something with 4-wheel drive, decent clearance and power, and at least the capacity to take my garbage cans down to the bottom of our driveway. And...

    Rear Door Click

    I was wondering what the hell that noise was when I backed out of my garage! With the Ram, I used to hit the emergency release cord for the garage door with the roof of the truck but the Lib isn't that high, it sounds just the same though!

    Guages peaked when starting?

    Sounds good to me, I just took 'er out again and no problem. Hopefully you are right, I hate to think of problems in a car this new... Hey, I noticed you're from Green Bay. Cool. (I've been a Packer fan for 40 years even though I've always lived in CT). You must get some interesting snow...

    Guages peaked when starting?

    I noticed something weird happened today when I started the Liberty. All the guages went to the extreme right for a brief second and then back to the left. The gas gauge then slowly reset. All the other guages worked correctly once I was underway. I have started the vehicle a few times since...

    The Little Things

    Well, I am still on my "honeymoon" with my KJ, but here goes (not in any particular order): 1. EVIC info center (except MPG!!) 2. Full-time, part-time, and low-range!! 3. "Jeep" headlights. 4. Seems like a solid tight build 5. Power leather heated seats 6. Coming from a Ram 2500 4x4,I don't...

    Waxing fenders on a Limited

    I was planning to wax my vehicle over the weekend. When I picked up my Liberty I noticed the fenders, although they "match" the body of the car, are plastic and not metal. Do you guys wax the fenders along with the rest of the car or just use a cleaner? (My New Beetle had plastic fenders and I...

    Dash Guages

    The Ram I just traded for the Lib had the white guages, the Lib has the black. I like 'em both about the same, really.

    Sirius Radio Option - My Experience

    For those who may be lurking and actually haven't purchased a Liberty yet, or for those who may want to replace their current receiver with a Sirius-capable one, I thought I would post my experience as a "public service" and you can make your own judgements. First, I would check out a 3 day...
