    Jeep Mod

    I keep around 35-38 psi in the tires. I lowered the pressure a while back to around 32 psi, but it felt like it was “floating” on me. Very uncomfortable driving feeling. I also have the equipment to recalibrate my speedometer, so that’s no issue.

    Engine Code P0128 2017 JK

    I think I’ll also open the radiator cap and start the engine cold. If the thermostat is stuck open, the water should be visible circulating in the radiator.

    Engine Code P0128 2017 JK

    Wow, what an explanation. Very thorough and understandable, thank you. I’ll check for leaks tomorrow. I also checked my antifreeze reservoir, cold, and it was at the “full” mark, but there could still be a slow leak, I assume. Great advice by all, thanks. I’ll post the solution as soon as I...

    Engine Code P0128 2017 JK

    Sure have. No smell or leaking fluids. I pretty much assumed your response, but thanks. When I get home, if it’s still on, I may have the local mechanic I use check it out for me.

    Engine Code P0128 2017 JK

    Straight up as it has since I’ve had the Jeep. I don’t know what the actual degree number would be.

    Engine Code P0128 2017 JK

    I need a reliable and quick response to my concern. My check engine light is on and I checked for the code. It shows me the P0128 code related to the coolant system running low temperature. I read somewhere that the risk is low, but should get it checked out within a month. My problem is I’m...

    Clicking from engine while trying to trickle charge battery

    I went on vacation and left my 2018 Jeep Wrangler home. I thought that I should connect a thickle charge to the battery to keep it charged up just in case, but I decided against it. After returning 10 days later, I came home to a completely dead battery. When I connected a trickle charge to...

    Has anyone switched from a hard top to a soft top on a JK model and if so, what are your thoughts on advantages/disadvantages? Best brand, recommendations, costs, etc?

    Need some education about radio replacement in 2010 Wrangler Sahara

    All I know is if you order a unit from Best Buy, you’ll get it installed for free. They did mine and did a great job. Also installed the center spare tire backup camera for free.

    Need a new radio with backup camers

    I purchased a JVC model KW-M750BT radio and center spare tire backup camera from Best Buy with free installation for my 2017 Wrangler Unlimited Sport. I need to take it back tomorrow for them to install a SiriusXM satellite radio tuner cable which was not available until this week.

    Water leak on passenger side floor pan

    I can’t tell, the carpet is just damp. There’s no color or smell to it. I think it’s water, but where from? I think I’ll pull my carpet back, drive it again and see if I can see where it’s coming from. Thanks for your Interest.

    Water leak on passenger side floor pan

    If this is the drain, which I believe it is, it’s clear of any blockage.

    Water leak on passenger side floor pan

    UPDATE: I dried the carpet out on the drivers side and wiped the floor mat dry, then I let it sit in the sun with windows down for a few hours. I drove to the gym and to Lowe’s without the A/C on. The weather is also great with no rain in the forecast. I also didn’t run it through the car wash...

    Water leak on passenger side floor pan

    Yes I do. I’ve taken them off a couple of times so far, but I’m pretty sure they seated well when I reinstalled them.

    Water leak on passenger side floor pan

    I have only 18,500 miles on my 2017 Wrangler and have also noticed water on the drivers side floorboard, but not sure if it’s from the car wash, rain, or A/C. I’m going to dry it out first, then use the A/C first to see if it’s that. If not, then I’ll try the car wash. We don’t have any rain...

    Best Head Unit Replacement?

    I’m having a JVC 6.8” touchscreen and backup camera installed tomorrow by Best Buy. I bought it through them, so I get a professional free install. Can’t wait to listen to it and see how the backup camera works.

    Check TPM System

    Thanks BlackJKU. I’m new to Jeeps, but love mine. I hope that Chrysler/Jeep have been or are working on solutions for the TIPM problem. It seems to be a pretty common problem among Chrysler product owners.
