This for sure is a fantastic source- thank you!

Warmer weather in NJ today. I was following a burial convoy after a wake into a cemetery and noticed my engine temp creeping up just passed the middle mark. That said, Im def adding an aux trans cooler to my 2013. Never-ending mods! FML

Auto wreckers. They have them here in Jersey. Not sure about Cali. But there must be somewhere in that long, long state.

TBH, that's a nice little tailgate table. Not sure how useful it'll be since it is quite small. But aren't most of these about that size? I gotta check. Be regardless, 80 rocks isn't too bad.

I was looking into the different options and saw the one's with a fan, like you mention. Thinking to just keep it front mount, because I really dont want get get up into the $300 range with install. But I'll dig deeper into the fan realm before I pull the trigger on a basic unit.

Thank you gentleman! I really appreciate the feedback, info, and suggestions. @BLACKJKU -I do plan to move to a hotter climate state. And Im often in stop and go traffic where I currently reside. ✅ @pcoplin - I was wondering how people where reading their trans temps and right, -OBD2 apps...

Thanks, this is informative. Though, I do believe my manual says 60k. I'll double check and confirm. Id DIY it, but breaking off the oil pan brackets or stripping the bolts is a legit concern. Guess no one recommends the additional cooler either.

Its amazing seeing the window sticker on a Jeep you bought used. I literally said, "wow, holy sh!t" Thank you @JerryD ! 👍👍

The idea was suggested to me when I stopped at a local shop and asked the owner if he can do a transmission fluid change on my JK. The gentleman replied that he can but is usually weary of doing them if the fluid is clean and there's no current issues. Then he looked over and saw my JK on 35's...

Thats awesome news! I love reading about owners that have success at correcting these types of issues. Especially since there seems to be less and less mechanics willing to go into actual engine repair. Please keep us posted if anything changes. Cheers 🤘

Curiously watching this thread as it's always good to know how others resolve or make it through odd codes and engine issues.

@kbar691 Same here- I recorded a before video of the noise (prior to the replacements) and man, it was a tick-fest on both sides. Now its just a light sound on the passenger side and only happens after warmup. Though, the full on tick before the repair was the same —silent for start and warmup...

Same! As soon as I suspected a collapsed lash adjuster, my OCD has me constantly listening for some type of engine noise lol ~ my brother tells me Im mental. 😆 From all the videos Ive watched on YT with various refreshes and part replacements, all of them had successful results reusing the cams...

Very interesting. None of the OG parts were bad? Holy hell. Eagerly awaiting the follow-up on the cam change out and if anything else happens to be suspect. 🤘

Ok, good then you know well enough that they're solid. On changing everything out: didn't you have them changed already with the exception of the cams? Maybe Im thinking another thread with a different JK. But if you already did, I wouldn't bother. However, when that cam comes out I'd ask the...

And all the rockers and lash adjusters look good / sound (don't rattle) tight? Im guessing the mechanic is rotating that timing to check them all? Because depending on where the cams are positioned they can hold a damaged rocker follower tight in its place. Why not just say "eff it" while in...

😂 I ASSume that's an analogy to the doctors bill.

OP, you have it listed at over 100 grand. 😶

Oooh man, internet YT beef? The guy above did a video on the other guy above:

Here's a guy who's always addressing tick issues in clients 3.6 equipped vehicles. Talks about it quite regularly and says that gen 3 of the Pentastar is the most refined:
