    Rear Gear noise

    Hey guys! Maybe you can help diagnose a noise. I've had the rear gears replaced 3 times now. The first two times, a part was left out that needed to be in there. The 3rd time they got it right (at least partially) and I've been riding smooth. I have a noise though. It sounds like cicadas or a...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    A lot has happened since my last reply on this. Just wanted to update you guys. The Jeep is still not exactly trouble free, but doing better. I've been to two different shops, twice each. The Jeep dealer shop I took it to did the following: *Replaced the 4x4 guts. (Didn't resolve issue at all...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Finally got the Jeep back last week sometime. Just wanted to update you guys. The rear whine was the rear gears, as I suspected. They replaced those and it is quiet now. So even though I had to take it to the dealer twice, I now also have new bearings and oil in the transfer case too (since...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Green Liberty: I've had my Jeep for about 4k miles now. I got it used. It has made this noise since I've had it. So it might have sounded this way for a long time but I'm not sure. Either way, I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to make this noise. It's really loud on the interstate. The faster...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    TBJ, do you always talk about yourself in the third person? It's kind of distracting, I thought you were someone else referencing TBJ at first.... I have stock tires so I think everything is ok there. Also the noise is no different when changing lanes. As I said before it only changes if I go...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Just updating the thread. I took the Jeep in early Thursday morning week before last, but didn't get it back until the next Friday. They didn't even start working on it that I'm aware of until Tuesday morning... anyway, I got it back finally and I can't tell it was worked on at all. The whine...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    I took the Jeep to the shop this morning. I told them about the whine, speedo being off and fuel tank spurting gas when it fills up. Hopefully it'll come back all fixed up. I am currently driving a Ford Fusion. It's actually a pretty good car. Ford has stepped their stuff up. I had an '06...

    Reliable, popular KJ aftermarket sites

    Thanks a lot guys! I want to start small and get probably a Magnaflow muffler for my jeep. I would like to lift it later, when I get the funds one day. The whole Magnaflow kit, just looking around, is around $550. Would I be fine to just go to a shop, get a specific muffler, and have it welded...

    I'm new to Jeep KJ shopping. What are some good, reliable websites to buy aftermarket Jeep stuff of all kinds? I've seen Summit Racing mentioned. What are some others? Thanks!

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Guess that blows my theory then. :eek: Well, I see Jeep tuners, but not Liberty specific tuners. I'll keep looking. This works for Jeep Liberty, but to '06. http://tunertools.com/proddetail.asp?prod=DS-P1030&cat=41 I see performance chips and things like that, but not a lot in the way of...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    I'm wondering if it's possible my Jeep has had a "tune", like with a Diablo tuner or something like that. I know they'll do things like allow for harder shifts, speedo calibration for gears, etc. No way to know if I have stock rear gears or what either, since it is used. For all I know it's got...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    My tire sizes, if I wrote this down right, are: P225/75/R16 I assumed that was the stock size, but I could be wrong. I didn't look it up yet! I would have guessed the speedo was off due to tire size also. Since I got the vehicle used, it might be possible that I have different tires on it...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    I thought I posted a response, but I'm not seeing it for some reason. Anyway, I called a local Jeep shop and they are going to look at it the end of this week. I have a few things that happen with it that I'm going to ask them to look into: *Rear end whine. *Pulsating "roar" (if you can call...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Thanks a lot for all the comments. The jeep seems to drive fine, it's really just the noises that I am not sure of. I'm not a mechanic in the least, so I will need to take it to a shop sometime and see what they can do. I just spoke with someone at a shop and they said it's not common for it to...

    My Jeep does a few weird things.

    Hi all, hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. New user here. I have an '07 Liberty 4wd with around 56k miles on it. I got it used with 53k miles on it so I have not had it long. I have a few questions about it: *The rear whines when I reach 50-55mph or higher. It sounds like...
