I talked to the dealer today; $125 to flash the 5 modules. He said this is not uncommon when jumping a dead vehicle and is not restricted to Chrysler , but can happen to any of the new vehicles; GM, Ford, even Mercedes. You're correct about charging the battery prior to starting it. This was...

This all occurred after I started troubleshooting a cigarette lighter problem. I left the key in the ignition in the on position overnight. The next day, the battery was dead as could be. I jump started it; immediately the dash displayed both ESP/BAS and AIR BAG lights. The only code that I...

I have never gotten anything lower then 19 MPG. Gotta love that 6 SP. Most of the time I get between 20 to 25 MPG. Closer to the 20 MPG in the winter running snow tire, while in summer (when I run the stock tires) I get closer to 25 MPH My 19 MPG trac was from driving in deep wet snow...

Your gas cap has a rubber seal. I had to replace mine due to the rubber seal having a (visual) crack, but I still had to have the computer reset to clear the code.

Tony, it was nice of you to remove most of the front to show those bolts!

Has anyone had any problems with the electric windows? I had problems with the drivers side rear window as well as both front windows. The 2 front windows would go down, but not up if the windows were put all the way down, and the drivers side rear window had the drive cable break twice.

Well nothing has really broke yet, but I still would like a factory manual. Where is the best place to find one? Also, anyone ever had problems with their front windows going back up after you've had them all the way down?

So where did the replacement diff come from? If this was close to Colorado Springs I would have been more then happy to take pictures. You guys must have busted your tail to get this done so quickly.

So were's the wife going to sit, or is that the plan? Nice list, but it sounds more like my list I used for hunting. I would also take: some baby wipes (if that isn't what you meant by hand wipes) sunblock dental floss & toothbrush something to cut wood with something to boil...

Marty, You should post this as a new thread; you will get more replies. You didn't say what your temp gauge was doing, could be the thermostat but the temp gauge would show your vehicle was not warming up.

How about a little more information. Do you hear it when you're not moving? Does the noise change with motor speed, vehicle speed, when you apply the brakes, or when you're backing up?

Well I've had some time to put a few miles on without my wife driving the Sport and was doing well until the cold weather hit. My first tank I got 24.6 MPG driving to and from work (98 miles round trip per day; 46 hiway, 52 in town on roads that average 45 MPH) until the bad weather hit (using...

I've shifted into 4 hi at 70MPH because the roads were dry until I hit a place where the snow had blown over the road and created a sheet of ice, sometimes it happens, where I live it happens a lot. In rain, I don't think I would ever use 4WD on a paved road even if there was a foot on water...

You shouldn't be using the 4WD on a paved road even if it's wet. Part Time 4WD is what it may say on the dash, but unless you have the transfer case that allows you to select between 2WD, All Wheel Drive, 4WD, 4WD low, you're really in 4WD HI. That's why the steering seems to bind. Read...

"If you have reciepts showing the price paid for the K3199's and install you can sent it to Jeep and they will reinburse you for the HD greaseable LBJ's." Is thiis true?
