    oil pressure gauge

    I'm planning on adding an aftermarket (VDO) oil pressure gauge to our '06 Libby. Are the oil pressure switch threads on the 3.7 metric, or normal 1/8" NPT? Is there a better place to tap into oil pressure on the engine than where the current pressure switch is located? Looks like it would...

    Odd defroster operation

    OK, so our 2006 Liberty heat/def/AC works great...until the last couple days. It's been really cold here and on the way to work yesterday I could not get the mode to switch out of defrost until I was half way to work (about 10 minutes). It did it again this morning. I went out to start the...

    Persistent P0303 code

    Spoke too soon... I guess I spoke too soon! :icon_mad: Crank sensor did not fix it afterall. Started missing at idle again today. Check engine light came on. P0303 code again. Before replacing cam sensor, I think I'll try swapping the Napa coil on #3 with one of the other cylinders and...

    Persistent P0303 code

    Fixed It was the crank sensor. Idles nice and smooth now with no check engine light and/or codes. Thanks for all the suggestions! :icon_biggrin:

    Persistent P0303 code

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I haven't messed with it any more yet. I did use the NGK copper plugs, but I got the coil from Napa. Probably should try the crank sensor next. Appreciate the help!

    rear brakes howling

    Another quick question... I recently replaced the rear disc brake pads and parking brake shoes. Rotors were worn, but they still looked good so I did not replace. I did scuff the rotors with 80 grit sandpaper. All was good until a couple weeks after replacing the pads. Then I started to...

    Persistent P0303 code

    Our '06 Renegade is running well except for a persistent P0303 (cyl #3 misfire) code. I replaced all six plugs and the coil on #3. It will run just fine for a week or two, then will intermittently start to miss slightly which is really only noticeable at idle. It "seems like" it happens more...

    Rear Fog Lights

    FYI....found this on Wikipedia: [10] Rear fog lamps are not required equipment in the U.S., but they are permitted, and are found almost exclusively on European-brand vehicles in North America. Audi, Jaguar, Mercedes, MINI, Land Rover, Porsche, Saab and Volvo provide functional rear fog...

    Rear Fog Lights

    Our Libby is a TOAD (as well as my daily driver). However, when I installed the wiring from the motorhome I connected to the stock lights, using diodes of course. I didn't think about using the lower lamp area for that. So, I ran wiring the full length of the vehicle twice...once for the TOAD...

    Rear Fog Lights

    The idea of a bright red rear fog light is so people coming up behind can see you sooner when visibility is poor. Running white or amber (running lights) on the rear is illegal for sure.

    Rear Fog Lights

    I didn't research the legalities, but I've heard some of what you mention before. However, I have seen a few Jaguars & Mercedes running red rear fog lights so I'm not sure if they are really illegal or not. Guess I'll find out if I get stopped! :gr_grin: Of course, they could be misused such...

    Rear Fog Lights

    While replacing my tail/brake light and backup light bulbs with Sylvania Zevo LED's on our 2006 Renegade, I realized that the reflector and lens for the Euro model rear fog lamps was there, just no sockets or wiring. I don't know why exactly the rear fog lights were not included or at least...
