Anyway to disable the tire pressure monitor system or TPM :)
Dependent on the curvature of the wheel and the way the bead/valve area is designed on the aftermarket wheels, some fit and some don't. During a small (3 hr) training session about TPMS thru the retail tire store I work at, removing / disabling TPMS systems from new vehicles that have been...- gsbrockman

OEM exhaust: how long did it last, replacement types, cost?
The Magnaflow is stainless as well.....a local exhaust supply company we do lots of business with hooked me up for $300 on this system.....he gave me a tad better deal as it was not for re-sale and used on my personal vehicle. Greg- gsbrockman

how to drain water separator on crd
Ideally the fuel/water separator should be drained with some set frequency......maybe every other fill-up. Contaminated fuel is not the only source of water in fuel........condensation occurs as well. If you're pumping 50*F fuel out of an underground tank and it's 85*F outside, some...- gsbrockman

Magnaflow #15870 Exhaust System......
Well, it's been installed. It's a direct fit short of needing to ever so slightly tweak the rear-most hanger. Greg Muffler shot near convertor. 2.5" mandrel bent tubing. 3.5" slash/rolled polished stainless steel tip. Jimmy The Pipe Layer !- gsbrockman

how to drain water separator on crd
Not to be mean or anything, but there is not a procedure in the owner's manual stating exactly how to drain the fuel/water separator; only to "drain the accumulated water from the fuel/water separator drain provided." It's not in the owner's manual, but is in the service manual. Polaraman...- gsbrockman

Magnaflow #15870 Exhaust System......
Well, I decided to take the plunge and order today (locally) a Magnaflow #15870 exhaust system for the CRD. I've read on numerous boards that the 2.4L, 3.7L, and 2.8L engines all share the same exhaust system from the muffler back......my new system is on the shop floor and will be installed...- gsbrockman

Cost of an Oil & Filter change on the KJ CRD............
Oil change #2 was a tad cheaper as I was disgusted at the way the Mobil 1 0W40 looks at 11,458 miles. I'm now running 5W40 Shell Rotella-T Full Synthetic. 5W40 Shell Rotella-T One Full Synthetic: ($14.22 per gallon/pro-rated) 7 quarts @ $3.56 per quart $24.89 MOPAR Oil Filter #05003558AA...- gsbrockman

Question for CRD Owners
The CRD is not too much louder than the 3.7L at cruising speeds. At idle, especially on a cold engine in colder temperatures, the clanging is a little louder until the coolant and oil come up to temperature. There's lots of sound deadening material underhood and under the front part of the...- gsbrockman

CRD's tires wearing on inside

HOW TO: Oil & Filter Change Procedure '05 CRD
The little CRD just turned over 11,458 miles today and got its second oil change and tire rotation......the 0W40 Mobil 1 was just as nasty this time as the last time. I've decided to switch to some good ol' Shell Rotella-T 5W40 Full Synthetic; I expect to have some better results as far as...- gsbrockman

Liberty Limited Chrome Over Clad Issues
I'd suspect some type of oxidation / chemical reaction between the wheel weights and the chrome clad covers......I'm assuming it has coated wheel weights ? Now may be the perfect time to get some 16" alloys "under warranty" so you can choose from lots of different sizes as opposed to the few...- gsbrockman

HOW TO: Install Sirius Starmate
Great article. I have the Sirius Sportser in my 2003 Dodge RAM 2500 Crew Cab 4x4 CTD and I purchased an inline 3.5A mini-blade type fuse holder and just wired into the cigarette lighter circuit for my 12V + switched power and ground.
