    I do have a couple of cousins that drive Dodge diesels. The rest of the family are primarily Chevy. My brother is a Vette and Camaro nut. He has a 04 Z06 vette that is pretty sweet. He just sold his first car that he had for 32 years a 62 Impala SS.

    Thanks!! I understand. GMs are not for everyone. I know them inside and out, my dad was a GM service manager for 41 years. He worked at the same dealership for 46 1/2 years. Yes I am the blacksheep of our family.

    Easy now!! I personally like most of the new Mopar vehicles. I have been a devoted GM man for 28 years of driving. I have also had a Suzuki and a Toyota mixed in an 3 Honda motocycles. Total vehicles for me and the wife and kids are exceeding the 30 mark. I have made the comment several...

    Red Rock 4x2 with pebble interior Sirius with 6 disc changer. Put close to 400 miles on it Friday. We love it. Completely different ride from the KJ.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    There are a lot of similarities between the two. There are some differences too. Not sure, is the suspension different? The salesman got plenty ticked when I called it a re-badged Nitro.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    Good news!! They did a sticker for sticker even swap for an 08 KK. Chrysler bought the 07 back. I picked the 08 up yesterday.

    Engineering I guess. They still haven't figured it out.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    Well I finally got to talk to the District Service Manager yesterday. He said they were working on a fix but, it is still about 30 days out.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    The new tranny didn't fix it. They didn't even ask me to try it. Service Manager said he didn't even get 1/2 mile away from the dealership before it started jerking. The Service Manager has turned it over to the District Service Rep. I am supposed to talk with him on Monday. We'll see.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    Yes, we have the lemon law. This is the 5th trip but, only the 4th repair order since they left one of the ROs open for 2 trips. Our lemon law is 4 unsuccessful attempts for the same problem during the warranty period. This is the final one. I hope it will be fixed but, if not I do like the 08s.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    I did get a call from the service manager on Monday. He said he wasn't getting much support from engineering with a fix. He told me he was ordering a NEW complete tranny assembly from Jeep. Hopefully they will get it installed before the weekend so I can give it the true test. I will keep...

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    Well the dealer sent a truck to pick it up today. They are going to get the Chrysler service rep to make a call on what to do. Hopefully they will get a resolution one way or the other.

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    That's the deal. This re-designed converter required a complete new program. When it was doing this with the old converter, engineering was going to re-write the software and realized the new software wasn't compatible with the old converter. Then we had to wait on the new converter to arrive...

    Transfluid addons and cleaners

    The old saying goes. The best oil additive is fresh oil, so i would say the best tranny additive if any is fresh tranny fluid. IMO

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    No codes or any lights. The problem has worsened with the replaced converter. It feels like a miss but, could very well be a shutter from the converter not locking solid. With the original converter it was only noticable between 35 and 40 or until it shifted to overdrive. Once the converter...

    2007 Tranny Trouble?

    The first trip to the dealer. Service actually told me it was random mis-firing on 1,3,6. This was at 1,306 miles. They told me I got some bad gas and that they replaced the spark plugs and added some fuel treatment. I wasn't born yesterday! Bad gas does not differentiate between cylinders...
