    Enginer shuts off while driving

    Important detail. Yes, i did. Even if oil was low, engine shouldn't shut off unless there's some crazy software condition to protect the engine.

    Enginer shuts off while driving

    Twice today while driving my engine all of a sudden shut off. No sputtering or symptoms of a problem, just bam...engine is off. Both times engine was at operating temp and i had already driven about 5 miles. Both times it shut off going under 5mph, and shut off as soon as i pressed the...

    Gas overflowing during fill up

    I always fill up until i know it will only take another 1-2 gallons then slow the pump down big time. This will usualyl let me fill it u all the way up without a bunch of gas spilling onto the ground. I suspect the "fix" is going to involve dropping the gas tank out of the car.

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Sorry I hadn't been on this forum in a long time. I hope you noticed my post where I mentioned we ended up with a Keyfit 30. If not, I assume you found something that worked for you =)

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Daughter is almost 2, but only 24 pound sstill. Very tall and thin. Our situation has changed some, based on lots of research we are doing extended rear facing (basically as long as she can fit). So we probalby have until she is 3-3.5 before we put her front facing. As an update for those...

    RB1 Technical Info/Hacking?

    I goolged for a few hours, nothing much. That link you provided is interesting, as it suggests the display is wanting an RGB input (component).

    RB1 Technical Info/Hacking?

    Yah, I saw that's a popular unit, but they run $400-500 which is crazy. I originally considered this in my liberty, but a in-dash monitor like that blocked a good portion of the A/C vents which is no good (this problem doesn't exist in the WJ which has A/C vents below the stereo). I don't...

    RB1 Technical Info/Hacking?

    In our '04 WJ we have the RB1 NAV HU. Tired of looking at that pretyt 4.9" screen that's worthless. Was considering gutting the stereo and using the display/buttons in some kind of carputer build up to retain a factory look. I can't seem to find any technical info on the LCD screen. MY...

    new spark plugs lower mpg??

    I recently switched josb and am doing all city driving. I feel like i'm driving "normal" and i'm averaging 18mpg. We normally get about 23-24 going 60-65mph, and 21-22 going 75mph.

    Engine Temperatures

    Ours gets tot he middle line on the dot within 3 minutes of starting, then it sits there without budging no matter how far we drive. We tow a trailer in summer to colorado (about 12 hours of driving) and go through some serious mountain climbs...it never budges. I suspect you have an issue.

    06 Window Problems?

    Our front two are fine, but both rear regulators have been replaced. First one failed with only ~10,000 miles on the vehicle. And we rarely use the rear windows...we mostly runt he AC since we live in arizona. The regularots don't fail in the same way other vehicles tend to...there is a...

    New water pump = better MPG?

    Even with the A/C running both the KJ and my vette do about 1-2mpg better in summer on average. It's very easy to compare becuase i drive the exact same routes every day of the week, mostly highway mileage and only a few lights. This is due to the vehicle warming up much faster (warming up in...

    How did you end up with your KJ?

    Awesome! Was it a scratchers thing or number picking deal?

    How did you end up with your KJ?

    Wife and I wanted a new car with a warranty and it needed ot be something with some utility. We camp a lot so we wanted some offroad ability (we weren't really planning on doing much wheeling...but were thinking occasional 4x4 needed to get through some mud etc.). Also wanted some towing...

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Yes, in order for my knees now to be up against eh dashboard I need to have the seat about 3/4ths of the way back. At this point there isn't a car seat at babies 'r us that will allow the seat to go that far back.

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    The Chicco Keyfit 30 will fit in a liberty. So we went to Babies 'R Us with a measuring tape and tried a few out. After testing several found the keyfit would allow us to both sit comfortable in either seat when mounted in the middle. Unfortunately, you are now supposed to keep your kids rear...

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Wow, I should have re-read my initial post...talk about grammar failure. Thanks for responses so far. We put the seat in the center. I don't think my wife will go for it being on the sides for now (I would prefer this so we can take it out easily using LATCH system). We're going to see if...

    Infant Child Seat Size...parents experience needed!

    Baby on the way end of March, so we bought a car seat. Huge problem: The car seat takes up so much room, that the front seats have to be slid forward nearly as far as they'll go. This makes it impossible for me to drive (I'm 6'3"), and virtually impossible to sit in the passenger seat...

    Jeep Liberty Renegade 2010

    True, but at least the original renegade had some distinguishing features like the lights etc. This thing doesn't stand out at all and doesn't "look rugged".
