    Sluggish acceleration and bad smell while driving uphill

    I don't think "bad" fuel would be an issue these days unless the Jeep sat dormant for a year. Only place I'd believe there's an exception of possibly contaminated fuel would be Miami. 😆 Sound like a bad cat like as @BLACKJKU suggested. Keep us posted if you have any resolve or find anything you...

    TPMS Sensor

    I used this (see below post) to stop the onboard computer from reading the TPMS sensors. Then I went as far as replacing my wheels and tires and going to regular valve stems. Screw the TPMS BS. https://www.quadratec.com/p/aev/procal-module-wrangler-jk-30406007

    TPMS Sensor

    TPMS sensors are useless. At least that's my opinion. I deleted mine shortly after buying my jeep. Couldn't be happier. Even on my commuter Honda, I'm having those things removed. Useless and annoying.

    buying used...some questions

    126k is up there. There will no doubt be things that need replacing. Question is when? So what does this warranty cover EXACTLY, and what is your deductible, if any, and what is the limit of repairs? Meaning do they "fix" it once and thats it per component? Furthermore, do they do the repairs...

    This is what's wrong with the US legal system

    Not knowing all the details, I dont see $h%t coming of this other than a good "story" to publish. I can certainly imagine a defense lawyer reversing the tables and countersuing for their clients stress and unnecessary hassle.

    buying used...some questions

    After owning a 'new-to-me' JKU (purchased from a longtime friend) I wouldn't buy another JK without a good warranty. There's so many weird and annoying things (especially for my OCD) that could go wrong unexpectedly. It's a MF'r. Make sure they put it in writing that they'll "fix" the issues...

    3.6 Pentastar Misfire on Cylinders 1, 3, & 5

    @Vman sure is a heck of a lot of miles but still, not a Jeep Wrangler 3.6, it's a Durango 3.6 😆😆 Funny enough, I watched a video on YT yesterday and the tech said that he himself has never had to fix a ticking issue on a 1500 with the 3.6! Here ya go:

    3.6 Pentastar Misfire on Cylinders 1, 3, & 5

    I commend you for being so incredibly ambitious and going in-depth to correct your issues. Learning never hurts and it's surely keeping you busy. I would have lost my f*^%ing mind. Hope you figure it out and school us in the process. ✌️

    Need help.Has anyone had this problem

    Ah, well then there you go. But labor-wise they are bastards. Especially with parts. Hope it works out. Chime back 🤘

    Need help.Has anyone had this problem

    DO NOT TAKE IT TO A DEALER. They won't even know what to do with an older gen Jeep. Least not most dealers, and they'll take you for a lot of dough. Guaranteed. Find a good local mechanic. Ask friends and family, talk to locals or small store owners in the area and they'll give you...

    You Think Your Jeep Problems Are the Worst?

    Well written lol @Anybodyhome -I enjoyed reading that. Awful looking and surely worst to drive. As I say: 'your Jeep, your money, your choice'. I cant get down with that, though. 😷

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Tell me about it! Last Spring I waited all through summer to get my MT's. Worth the wait, but an awful experience.

    33’s vs 35’s fuel economy

    I'll put it in simple terms: not cheap If you drive more than 25 miles a day, it will add up.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Dropped my 13 off to have a slight wobble "fixed" and its getting very annoying to always be 'fixing' shyt. Really considering a Japanese sedan now, because a Tacoma will only be a costly moving goal post too!

    2015 JK Engine noise

    Im not even kidding when I say there is no dealership you can trust. That is their main purpose— to raise the bottom line. They upsell constantly. And I do take my commuter car to a dealershit when I find a coupon for an oil change. But I immediately advise the service rep that Im there only...

    2015 JK Engine noise

    Those bastards.....they almost always default to a "new motor"as the fix. I've read it on forums all too often. Sorry, man, really. I would be completely shitty about it too. Crank arm, Im guessing, is the same as the crank shaft which is deep in the engine. My suggestion is to call all the...

    Got a new to me Rubi

    Great color and probably a good call. The JL went up in value (as all Jeeps have) but you probably made a little chunk of change on the way back to a JKUR......or maybe broke even, as you did mention 2drs. Either way, cheers on the purchase! And double the cheers on a manual.

    2015 JK Engine noise

    Honestly, I was wondering if its something below the overhead cams too. Im very curious to read what a dealer service tech's take is on the noise. Hoping they don't play games with a costly labor diagnosis and do give you some straight forward suggestions judging from their experience with...
