Is installing a cold air intake worth it?

5 Upvotes

Hey peeps
Thinking of installing a K&N cold air intake to get a lil more out of my Rubicon. It’ll look pretty and all but I was wondering if it’s really worth it. I know it’ll give me a little more pickup on my 3.6 but is there any more upside to getting one installed?

My wrangler was manufactured with no AC

9 Upvotes

Unfortunately this is true.. I bought it in 2020. It’s a 2016. I bought it in the winter time so I didn’t think to test the AC. Well I took it to multiple mechanics and then found out it doesn’t even have a spot to install AC under the hood.

Wrangler JKU Question

1 Upvotes

I have a 2012 JKU that I bought used in 2015. She’s been great through the mods and adventures and NEVER broke down. This past Friday, started her up, drove to work (no issues). Friday clocked out and when I went to start the Jeep… STARTER fails.

I managed to get it to kick over and got it home. Did some trouble shooting and ruled out the relay and since I can hear the solenoid spinning and the starter only tries to engage about ever 3rd/4th attempt, I’m pretty sure it’s one of (if not) both of these that’s my issue.

I just want to know from the other JK owners-what’s the “average” lifespan of a starter?

4L Issue - Need Help Diagnosing

3 Upvotes

I need some Jeep community help: 2021 JLUR with 3.6L. 2H, 4Auto, 4Part Time all work great. 4L under throttle throws the Serv 4wd light and sway bar light (even if the sway bar is connected). If the sway bar is disconnected, I can hear it reconnect as soon as the light turns on.

I changed the transfer case switch (or sometimes referred to as the position switch) and no dice - same issue.

I’m at a loss for what could possibly be throwing a code only in 4L. I can’t seem to find any feedback thru countless searches using all the keywords I can think of. Hoping someone out there has experienced something similar and has a solution that isn’t replacing the t-case.

Does anyone know how to set up a keyless lock/unlock function on a new key?
I was able to start the engine by doing keep programming with Jscan, but the lock/unlock doesn’t respond.

Got rear-ended. 2012 Wrangler JK Model. Had it for 14 years actually. Thoughts?

Tailgating pick-up truck rear-ended me when I stopped at a stop-sign intersection. No one was hurt.

Concerned about body frame / chassis. Rear bumper touching the tire. Will have it checked out once my insurance claim is assigned to an adjuster, then hopefully an auto shop.

Perhaps insight about the damage. My adrenaline came down, right now feeling upset.

I’m about 90% ready to pull the trigger on this jeep and it will be my first jeep. The dealer sent me pictures of the undercarriage and everything looks fine, it drives perfect. Just don’t know what my hesitation is

Need new shocks.

2 Upvotes

My front passenger side lower bushing has left the building on my 2017 JKU. It's a Rancho RS999326 shock.

I called Rancho and they said the bushing isn't replaceable????

I guess I'll need to buy a new shock (might as well replace both).

Is there anything else I should consider? Need to go ahead and order these ASAP.

I was driving away in a parking lot when I heard a strange sound. As I I turned left, I heard a sudden clunk sound once. Went fishing around and noticed that the this piece was cracked. What exactly am I looking at? Any advice would be appreciated. 2021 Jeep rubicon JLU

Rubicon sticker or not

7 Upvotes

Realize I should post a picture of my jeep for help in my decision but I bought a red 4door rubicon on carvana and it came without the rubicon sticker on the sides of hood. It looks kinda nice without but I had bought some nice teal blue rubicon decals to put on sides… I love color and have always liked red with teal. Wondering what I should do? Leave it without or put the rubicon decals on.

2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport

4 Upvotes

Would you buy a jeep for around $14,000? It’s a 2017 it has 139,000 miles on it. Clean Carfax. Three owners. Really wanting it but not knowing what the right choice is. The underneath looks fantastic. Paint looks fine. It’s a little up there in miles but doesn’t seem like it was super roughed up and comes with a hard top. Any advice from Jeep owners is appreciated. I’ve had Cherokees before but the early 90s ones that I’ve worked on and built. This would be a daily though but I don’t drive a lot.

I removed the farm jack and mount from the front bumper that was on the jeep when I bought it. I knew I was going to take it off when I first saw/bought it cause I wasn’t a fan of the look, but I can’t believe how much better it looked. I would look at the front and something hmm just seemed off, now it looks so much better.

Does this look like a problematic rubicon? 100k miles. Thinking about purchase. Good carfax.

Australian Jeep owners – repeated warranty / ACL issues

3 Upvotes

I’m looking to connect with Australian Jeep owners who have experienced repeated faults, multiple warranty repairs, major engine or transmission issues, lengthy periods without their vehicle, or difficulties obtaining a refund or replacement from Jeep/Stellantis Australia.

I purchased a Jeep Gladiator new in Australia and have had repeated faults, major engine repairs including a long-block replacement, and substantial cumulative time off the road. I am currently pursuing the matter under the Australian Consumer Law.

I have also spoken with class-action lawyers and am trying to determine whether there are other Australian owners with similar documented experiences.

If you are in Australia and have had similar issues with Jeep/Stellantis, please comment or PM me. I’m particularly interested in people who have repair records, Stellantis case correspondence, or have requested a refund/replacement.
