    Issue Replacing Hinge Pin

    Hello! Have a 16JKU. Doors have been slow to close, so I decided to replace the hinge pins with the delrin option. Successful on 1st back door, but have issuers with the other. Doors were super though to get off, so I followed advice from a YouTube post that advised to screw in nut about 3...

    ABS & Traction control lights

    Thx for all the replies. The scan indicated a bad right rear sensor. I replaced it and it’s working now. I hope that continues. That’s probably the easiest repair I have ever had on the jeep.

    ABS & Traction control lights

    just a little more info. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it to a place to check the codes until tomorrow. I was hoping to check today, but it became too hard to drive yesterday, so I took another vehicle to work. Yesterday, I stopped to picked something up and when I left the skid...

    ABS & Traction control lights

    This week I started my ‘16 JKU and soon after leaving house both lights came on. At first, I had no noticeable problems. They went off later that day and remained off on way home from work. The next day, I had the same issue. Fast forward to yesterday. I went over a speed bump in a parking...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Thx for the reply. They said they ran a bore sight down the hold and can see it doesn’t look right. The service manager said he is 100% sure the problem is in the head. Still pissed that I have any kind of engine issue at 98K. Called Chrysler today to complain and ask for help. Waiting on...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Update…. Dealer just gave me a quote of ~4K to replace drivers head with reman head. Also pulling passenger head to confirm no issues. This is a risk avoidance since it’s just 2 extra hours of labor. This is beyond frustrating. Is this a good investment in my jeep? I know it would be more...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Grrr…. I got a call from the dealer late this afternoon. After Senior tech review and consult with another senior member, they believe my jeep has a slightly burnt valve. It did pass compression test, but they have seen them pass before and still be have burnt valve. Now, I am faced with...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Hello, I thought I posted an update last night, but I guess I did something wrong. I replaced the ignition coil, but that didn’t work. I decided to just drop it off at the dealer yesterday. They did all the initial checks. They are not asking for more diagnostic time to remove valve cover and...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Thx. again. I just went and looked. If I have it right and it’s the back plug on the drivers side, then I do need to pull the upper intake. The passengers side would have been much easier. Just my luck. Please advise if I have the wrong plug. Also, let me know what you think about reusing...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    Thx Dirty Dog. After a little research, it appears that #6 is on the drivers side in the back. I had originally thought that it was on passenger side. Correct me if I am wrong. What you say makes a lot of sense and was something I thought about. Was just hoping there was an easier way...

    P306 Error code on 2016 JK

    I’ve tried to research as much as possible, but really didn’t find anything to help me diagnose my error code. I woke up this morning to an engine idling a little rough (by the way, i didn’t notice the rough idle after driving somewhere - only at cold start) and then my check engine light came...

    Heat not working properly

    Sorry for the additional questions. I was watching a video to confirm how to perform the replacement. I noticed that I need to drain the radiator. A few questions: 1. How much fluid will I lose out of radiator and hose assy? 2. Assuming I shouldn't reuse the current fluid? I changed it...

    Heat not working properly

    Hello, I thought I sent a reply, but I don't see it. Should I stick with a MOPAR thermostat, or is an aftermarket part acceptable? Thx. again.

    Heat not working properly

    Thx. again. I will replace it and see how it goes. I'm surprised I haven't gotten the CEL since this happens every single day and has been for a very long time.

    Heat not working properly

    Thx. for the quick reply. I should have added that I CEL is not on . Also, I didn't suspect it was stuck open because it seems to heat properly in the summer. I guess it works more accurate because it's hot outside, so being stuck open is a bigger problem in the winter?
