    11 miles per gallon.....it's not good, but is it bad?

    So am I, my lifted XJ, on 31" MT's does better than that - & I recall being disappointed the KJ wasn't much better.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    A matchstick has always worked just fine. Oh, & unless that's soft sand, I wouldn't even bother with 4WD - or a Jeep, for that matter.

    no lights on night dashbord + right sidelights ( little white front + red rear )

    KJ's are too old for DRL's to be mandatory on European export models ( except, probably, Scandinavia, Italy &, I think, Slovenia i.e. the countries that require daylight headlight use), so that can be ignored. If front and rear lights on the same side don't work, it's probably the fuse. I...

    Oil temperature gauge

    I'd always understood that oil temp was higher than coolant. Can't see that fitting any extra clocks in a KJ would be any different from anything else, although I'd rate oil pressure more important than temp.

    Different front Wheel Speed sensor on Jeep Liberty KK

    eBay's ankle deep in them. Only difference between left & right fronts is the length of the wire, dunno about the backs.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Not really today (but I didn't think of it at the time) but one of the souvenirs from my last 2 weeks American road trip was a valve cover gasket set (full marks to the guy at O'Reilly's in Barstow, CA for checking their store in the next place on my itinerary had one in stock). Horrendous price...

    presentation

    I think there's a bit more to bio diesel than that - but I take your point. My only experience of running diesels on alternative fuels is with Citroens, & whether they would or wouldn't depended on what make of pump was fitted - but they loved ATF!

    Fine for routine service items & consumables - but a bio-diesel conversion? (at least I think that's what the request is for)

    Dash kit suggestions?

    Much as I like woodgrain in the right place (like Jags, Bentleys & Aston-Martins, e.g) to my mind there's not a lot wrong with the KJ interior, there's that bit of silver plastic that really ought to (& probably will) be satin black & those awful (to my eyes) white gauges but otherwise, reminds...

    Dash kit suggestions?

    This is a very personal/subjective thing so it's your Jeep/money/choice but, fwiw, a KJ is too new & the wrong type of vehicle for woodgrain which only really works with natural leather tones, dark green, mushroom/fawn/beige or, at a pinch, maroon. I've not seen a KJ that didn't have a...

    Mystery fuse box location

    I'm not sure what your attachment is meant to show but, you are right about the fuse boxes (although I was unaware of the 3rd one you mention.) However, according to both the drivers' & service manuals "The headlamp low beam relay is located in the Junction Block (JB) on the driver side...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    For many of us, that's the real benefit of AC, that's why if you've got a working system (in my experience in vehicles of this age, that's unlikely) there are only the occasional really cold mornings when you'd turn it off.

    What color paint for 2006 Liberty OEM steel rims?

    I though "wheel silver" was a generic colour - but I do like seafish's idea.

    Engine Swap

    Actually it's easier (no - make that less difficult) to fit a Lexus V8, if you must have that hypnotic exhaust note - or really enjoy a challenge. The V6 doesn't exactly sparkle, but it more than adequate to haul a little ol' KJ around. Oh, & that 4.7 is best avoided in any installation, I had...

    Hello!

    Given the care lavished on its cooling system by your brother, I'd suggest you don't take the chance & go through the whole flush & refill procedure, as often as it takes, as a matter of course.

    Driver Side Turn Signal & Running Light Prob

    Do I correctly understand that the turn signal only doesn't work when the headlights are on, which is what OP suggests? In which case, it's not as simple as a bad ground.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    No. I'm a bit lost on the "lost shape" bit but that wheel does look to be at an odd angle - in 2 planes. However, that tyre shows no abnormal wear pattern, which I'd expect with any alignment, & some worn component, issues. Love seafish's suggestion, oh my, how the other half live! We don't...

    06 kj rear brake lights issue

    While it's unlikely that both will fail simultaneously just think about all those vehicles you see with only one brake light - guaranteed the owner/driver won't know 'til the 2nd one goes out.

    Brake Light stuck on. Help

    I really don't understand the diagnostics (but that might just be me. I'm surprised KJ's have hydraulic brakelight switches but even more so that it's mounted on the MC. Never known a switch to fail "on", my 1st suspect for that fault would be the parking brake switch being stuck.
