    Budget Shocks and Struts 500$

    Yeah I found a deal on ebay for 337$ for all four shocks. Now just looking for a deal for the springs. So far only rockauto seems to be cheapest. Should I go for it? As a student this is a big decision for me since common sense is telling me to get the full shocks and front strut assembly from...

    Budget Shocks and Struts 500$

    Hello all, I haven't been on here much, was busy with work. My 2005 Jeep Liberty Sport 2WD has 154k miles and to my knowledge the shocks and struts are still original. The ride is really rough, I feel all the potholes and bumps like I am going through a jungle. Anyway, I know the consensus is...

    Rattling noises when in Reverse or Drive

    Hello KJers! My 2005 KJ 3.7L is making a rattling noise whenever I am in reverse or drive. It seems to come on randomly as I have had a friend come over to help me and whenever I start it the sound is there for a few seconds and then it's gone. It usually gets louder as I press the throttle and...

    Losing oil

    Sorry for the very late reply. I have been doing some testing and whatnot, so I have been a little busy. Okay so two weeks ago I was taking a thorough look around the engine compartment and noticed that the crankcase circulation hose(or breather hose as some people like to call it) was cracked...

    Haha at this point I am considering selling it. It's gonna cost too much for me to repair since I am still in high school.

    Losing oil

    So on cold start I had my friend check if there is any blue smoke and he didn't see any. We then drove for a couple of miles and there was no blue smoke coming out. We then took out the spark plugs to check for carbon build up because my mechanic told me to check that and there was no carbon...

    I have a friend coming over today so I will have him see if blue smoke comes out when I start because I never saw blue smoke before. It is really annoying.

    Losing oil

    Okay after a week of driving and not even a full tank of gas, the oil is almost below the safe mark. I am going to lift it at a local shop and see if it has leaks but I doubt it's leaking cause I would see a quart of oil on the driveway. Edit/Update: I see no leaks anywhere so I know it's not a...

    Losing oil

    What a coincidence I was gonna replace the pan as well while getting a new one with a drain plug. The transmission feels fine, it has never acted weird or funny so I am not as worried of something going wrong. I already have the atp filter and gasket on hand. Just waiting on the pan to arrive...

    Now you have me scared... I was literally about to do a transmission service this weekend and I don't know if the trans was ever serviced. The fluid is still pink so I have my hopes high.

    Losing oil

    Bit late for that. Already had ordered one online on Christmas. I installed it today. The old one popped of halfway from one end that connected to the hose and one that goes in the socket. Hoping this fixes it, if not then I might bother you guys for help if you don't mind. Like I said, I am...

    Less than 100 miles for sure. And the pcv valve is the fram one from Amazon. I ordered a different one this time.

    Losing oil

    It currently has 150k miles and I changed the oil pan gasket at 148k miles. I always used the valvoline maxlife 5w-30 oil for oil changes every 3 months or 3000 miles but the months come before the mileage. I changed the pcv valve last year when it had around 145k miles. As far as anything else...

    I replaced it last year though. But I will change it again to see if it helps since they don't cost much. Since it's Christmas it will have to wait a few days so I will post again if that doesn't help. Thanks, Tanji
