Yay I broke my transmission.

Kinda funny
Since it all started around a 42RLE

Yeah no doubt. I was just thinking a 545RFE would hold more torque because it was the CRD ****** and look what happened.

FYI, I don't care if the 545RFE actually does unless you are willing to donate me one and all the parts to use it.

Yeah, it's crazy ain't it? The 545RFE behind the 2.8L can't handle the "shock torque" from the 2.8L nor can the torque converter. (The torque converter is the REAL problem though.)

Fixed it for you.

An entirely different transmission made by an entirely different company.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

That's why I asked, is it Mercedes?

 

[JeepJeepster]

Fixed it for you.

They put the 42re in the 2006 libertys??? Didnt know that..

 

[ThunderbirdJunkie]

Fixed it for you.

Er, yeah, you're right...it did all start because of that leaktastic single file line of six anemic cylinders didn't it

Um what?

Well I got the Jeep back after a 5 hour trip to Auburn Car Repair and back home. Should have been 3.5. Traffic *****. Thanks to John for staying at the shop an extra 45 minutes after closing.

They were nice enough to install this sticker for me.

Nope. Eww.... Mercedes, yuck. (FTR, I don't like my transmission much, but it and the 3.7L gets VERY good fuel economy!) It is an Aisin transmission... same company that makes (Made?) the AW4 in the Cherokee.

BTW: I am averaging 18 MPG with my 3.7L/W5A580 in my Grand Cherokee. That actually beats the 17.1 I averaged with my 3.7L/42RLE Liberty! And its 400lbs heavier!
