    measure resistance when cold, then again when warm/hot. is sensor not reading right? or wires or contacts. sensor cheap but test it first.

    Muffler Dripping water on Cold day

    agree. condensation and time for a new cheap muffler if money and time allows. agree to monitor radiator fluid level for a few drives. open cap when cold. is exhause whitish once warm, or a cloud of white when starting and cold? let us rule out fluid leak and rule in condensation.

    2007 Liberty won’t allow me to put in gear

    I agree. sounds like clutch is not moving properly under foot pressure, so you cannot easily move shifter. Do not know age of vehicle, access details, but if this were my vehicle, I would never hesitate in changing the failure point be it slave cylinder or master, or if easier no fluid...

    Help identify source of an oil leak

    OK guys, we all know this. Clean everything possible with brake cleaner to start clean. Then you will see where it is coming from. Cost rags, towels, and brake cleaner. (no smoking)

    CEL - Cylinder Misfire

    ONE: DO not change coolant. You do NOT have a coolant issue, so leave it alone for the time being. Fewer variables better. TWO: Yes, get a scanner to determine if dirty/fouled injector, or what. Rule out things. Yes I too have thrown cheap parts in, but they may be bad and you aggravate the...

    Floor plugs??

    I do not know but year and model helps members. Nothing surprisess me.

    CRD won’t start when cold.

    If power/amps to glow plug is reduced for like bad old wires, you voltage when on will be low and amps low and heat low. You need test voltage at plug while working/engaged/activated. If voltage and amps are proper, then glow plugs are not the issue. I am assuming the plugs are ok for this comment.

    New headlights?

    OLD wires reduce voltage to the bulbs. Instead of 13.5-14.3 volts, if you measure bulb under load, you may get 11.x volts. This cuts output by 50%. Rewire the headlights to fuse, relay to battery directly. Cheap and easy for a fuse holder and really are < $10 and headlights are bright. You can...

    P0172 p0175 engine overheating on idle

    Agree. If coolant old, flush properly, check heater core lines. HEAT ISSUE - I needed to reverse flush my daughters heater core twice as it got plugged up. Do this before adding new coolant. Is thermostat ok. Sounds like time to replace with OEM thermostat as I hear many after-markets fail to...

    Nephew bought a Liberty 2012 It won't charge

    Clean every ground, and reinstall. This takes care of simple problems. Old cars develop crust on ground straps. Measure voltage out of alternator and compare to battery. if alt voltage not getting to battery, then I would suspect internally corroded wire. this is a real thing.

    2005 Liberty Sport

    Due to having 20 year old wires, I wonder what is the voltage at the bulb. Please measure if bulb voltage == battery voltage, or is there a drop. If the bulb voltage is lower, that helps explain poor lights and you should install a relay taking the power off the battery directly. Fuse this work...

    clunking noise up front

    It is best to have axel off ground just enough to get tires off then spin shaft and wheels. You feel and hear the slop better when wheels are not engaged to earth with a load. good luck.
