great site, very helpfull and informative, I have been busy reading
I have a 02 Renegade
sadly to say the last few years it has been slightly negeleted in the maintance as I had a few battles with cancer
but just finished up with another batch of radiation over thanksging and now getting the Jeep back to getting it in tip top
---------------------
have never had any real problems,
in 07 I replaced the fan blower resistor very easy to do
in 08 I replaced the front speakers as the passenger door was finally blown
and in December 2009 had to replace the speed sensers on the transmission as they were leaking, sadly a few quarts low of fluid before I noticed, but it never over heated and i quickly droped the pan and changed the filters
front pinion seal leak, there again 1 quart low of front dif fluid, but no shavings in fluid
and last but not least I was replacing a wheel stud since the tire shop counter threaded it, and I inspected the wheel cylinder and noticed some fluid behind the rubber boot so i just went to the store and bought new clylinders and fluid
will get that fixed this weekend
also changing the spark plugs as I can not remember ever doing them, having a mechanic that is just starting his own business mess with the plugs since I fear it might be quite a challange as never changing them, or at most only 1x in 115,000miles (bought some Autolight single plats based on the recomendations of this site)
I just finished a few weeks ago the rear diff and transfer case, both were fine on fluid and drained and filled the radiator in Dec 09 and again in Feb2010(only 2months apart, but I figuered it couldn't hurt)
and feel free to flame away on my poor maintance
never remember changing spark plugs, front and rear differential fluid, transfer case, or transmission fluid
only thing I did do is oil every 3,000 miles
all is done now, except for spark plugs which will be hopefully this weekend
