    05 stuck in reverse

    Yeah I think I am going to check with the junkyard this week to make a package deal on a trans, front seats and carpet. If seat color is different then the rear too. Had to pry the valve body out as the shifter arm was seized in the housing. Not feeling very safe just throwing a...

    WTB: 05 Stock Airbox and tube

    So just got an 05 with a CAI on it and it is more of a HAI as far as I am concerned and would really like to find a stock airbox to pop back in it.

    05 stuck in reverse

    Here she is in all her dirty glory. Took the seats out to clean the floor and also clean the front seats as they are pretty rough. The transfer case seems to be functioning as it is supposed to. However the Trans will still not shift out Reverse/Park. Dropped the pan and the fluid did not...

    05 stuck in reverse

    Well thought I would provide an update. Went and took the Tow Dolly over to pick up the jeep today. First we jacked it up and I went to work on the transfer case cable issue. Just as expected the grommet and cable were off. So put the cable on and the transfer case shifts ok. No joy on the...

    2004 Jeep Liberty limited 3.7 DTC P0306 and P2317

    2 things. If it is not blowing smoke out the tail pipe and the oil looks ok and is not milky I would say your overheat problem is no big deal at this point. It appears you have a misfire on Cylinder 6 so I would start with a plug and also I would check the coil on cylinder 6 to make sure that...

    Looking into getting my first Liberty 05

    I think it really depends on mileage. I have a 02 Limited that is very very clean but high miles at 287k. I paid 900 for it and had to put tires, muffler, tailpipe, lower control arm and a couple sensors. I just picked up an 05 for 217k miles that is dirty inside and has an issue with the...

    05 stuck in reverse

    Tried that. First disconnected at the shifter and it would not budge so then went under and disconnected the cable from the trans and it will not budge. Maybe the Valve Body is messed up? No clue but this is going to be a fun one. First on my list is ignition and then the tranfer case cable...

    05 stuck in reverse

    Wow thanks for the information. I am thinking the same thing. There are no Cells as I was able to jack the rear end up and start it jumping the starter relay. It is at the top of a very steep driveway so my concern is the old guy just put it in park and then set the e brake which can put an...

    05 stuck in reverse

    Ok so it is a 42RLE but what is the difference between 3 or 4 wire versions? I am noticing a difference in cost is the reason I am asking. Looks like the 4 wire is in more abundance and cheaper lol.

    265-70-16?

    Wow that got interesting. I put on a stock set of tires off of a new jeep wrangler where the kid put on a lift and new bigger wheels and tires. I cannot remember the size but so far no rubbing that I can tell. Whoever had this jeep before me took care of it even with the high mileage. I...

    05 stuck in reverse

    I am so confused. It is an 05 Rocky Mountain Edition. When you look everywhere they introduced the 42RLE in mid 03. Does that mean all automatic non CRD Libertys have the 42RLE or there is a mix between that and the 45RFE. GAH. Head Explodes.

    05 stuck in reverse

    so worst case scenario if I have to get a trans what vehicles can I get one from? I see that this could have two different transmissions. I have a pretty big local jeep club that I was hoping may have a trans laying around.

    05 stuck in reverse

    That is what I am afraid of. I am now hoping that maybe the guy did something where the transfer case is in 4 wheel low when he was trying to get his key out of the ignition. If not guess I will be sourcing a Transmission. Can't complain too much the jeep was only 400.00. Now I am thinking...

    05 stuck in reverse

    That is the first thing I will be doing. The part should be there when I get home.

    05 stuck in reverse

    LOL good question. 1. Backup Lights are on. 2. Because the previous owner broke the ignition lock I had to pull the starter relay and jump it. Because of the backup lights I was not risking anything and so I jacked the rear end up before I started the engine to make sure the engine was...

    05 stuck in reverse

    Yeah I have done a ton of searching and cannot see another instance. Because it is at the top of a steep driveway I have no room to roll and try anything. I am just going to tow it out of there on Friday and get it back to my place where there is flat ground and I can get it up in the air...

    05 stuck in reverse

    So I am on travel playing couch mechanic at the moment. Thinking about the Transfer Cable being way loose could it be disconnected in 4wd Low and that is why the transmission will not shift out of reverse?

    How long will a typical Jeep Liberty engine last?

    288,000 miles on my 02. Engine seems to be original. A/C Compressor, Alternator and other odds and ends look replaced but the engine is super strong.

    05 stuck in reverse

    Oh I agree I am not 100% on the interlock but I don't believe it is playing a role. Also to add to this the 4wd Lever is very loose so no clue if maybe the transfer case could be causing an issue with this also. Just looking for suggestions before I have to pull the whole trans. I am going...

    05 stuck in reverse

    I would think with the shift cables disconnected the interlock does not come into play with the transmission. Correct me if I am wrong?
