    Power steering whine?

    Can you point me to where you bought the pump with the reservoir and pulley so I can make note of it for later on when the pump does fail because I can't find one anywhere with both. Thanks!

    Power steering whine?

    So I did not have time to do crap else on this. But last night on my way home, I got more noise, and then the dreaded ding from the gauge cluster. Looked down and the battery light was illuminated. The battery is new so I figured alternator and just kept driving hoping to get home before it...

    06 kj rear brake lights issue

    I would check and see if the 3rd light up top is working or not. I yanked my 3rd light bulb and replaced my light housings and turned my brake light bulbs the one way... the bulbs have 2 filaments and there are 2 positions they can be installed in as far as which way they are turned. I figured...

    Power steering whine?

    My 2007 has both a trans cooler and a power steering cooler. That rubber flap by the hoses is the rubber flap to the side of the headlight which I guess is there to direct air through all the cooling items. Yes I have done the same job with the stupid trans line running to the cooler from the...

    Power steering whine?

    I think I am going to try sucking out the reservoir and refilling, driving and repeating a few more times until I finish off this quart of fluid. I can barely hear it now at a stoplight. It kinda moans faintly once the engine RPM drops under 850, and moans more pronounced with additional RPM...

    Jeep Liberty Overheat issue

    I think you have air. Jack it up or drive it up your ramps cold and open the cap and air bleed allen in the upper hose neck. Let it idle a while like that with the heat running. Then see if the level drops where you can top it off. If no, then I would pay attention to the fan running, look at...

    Power steering whine?

    I've owned it since 6600 miles. Unfortunately I really can't confirm for sure nothing has ever been mixed. This is because I let the lack of a transmission dipstick and drain plug discourage me from doing the transmission maintenance myself. So I had been taking it in to the dealer periodically...

    Power steering whine?

    I pulled some of the fluid up out of an ATF+4 bottle with a syringe for a baseline. Then pulled some up out of the reservior. It looked not so bad in the tubing part of it and worse in the body of the syringe. More you are looking through the darker it is I guess. Looked more brown. VS brand new...

    Power steering whine?

    It's a 2007 gas. Reservoir is black and it has the dipstick attached to the cap. It doesn't seem low. The fluid color is what I would describe as a pink that has browned some? I also have had someone else suggest I just change the fluid and see. I really expected low since it started on a hill...

    Power steering whine?

    I parked on a slope, front end up the hill and left it idling at the curb. When I got back in and took off, I had a constant whine. It was dark and I wasn't far from home so I just ran home. The whine didn't seem louder when turning, just changed with engine RPM. I really had no clue where the...

    Asking those who have done their own paint job at home

    In the door jams and around the interior side of the doors around the door windows and around the door panels.

    Asking those who have done their own paint job at home

    I have gray interior and unpainted gray fender trim. But the body is burgundy. Last year I started to notice fading in the burgundy and a bit of sunburn on the clear. This winter it has really started to peel pretty rapidly. I have 250K so it doesn't make sense to take it to the body shop and...

    I might be doing something dumb to an 02 kj....

    The AC is easy to fix and not insane expensive if you buy the parts online. If you don't know what is wrong with it, get a kit with the compressor, the line that has the filter in it, and the accumulator canister... that way if the compressor burned out you don't feed the new one metal...

    Coil 6 Insufficient Ionization, Multiple Cylinder Misfire, Fuel Injector 4 Circut/Open

    Typically it is not all that hard to diagnose. Figure out the trouble cylinder. Pull the coil and the plug. If things look ok, just move that coil to another cylinder and see if the problem follows the coil. If it does, it is the coil. If not, it is probably the injector if the cylinder has...

    Need advice - unexplained missfires

    Sounds like the problem I had except mine ran OK just hissed. But it should have ran bad too I think. What happened to me is that my PCV went bad and it sucked a hole in the PCV line running to the intake. Crank it up, pull your dipstick and check for suction on the tube or air blowing out...

    Swing gate swap not working properly

    Yeah on 2007 its the glass it thinks is open if it dings at you. I can say this for sure because I work out of my 2007. Sometimes I forget to push on the door if I just pop the glass. Then later I hear the gate rattling when I am driving and have to stop and click it fully closed. It doesn't...

    Best place to buy a radiator?

    I actually just now got through posting this same thing to someone else. Mopar does not make radiators, they source them. On some years Mopar radiators did not have typical leaking issues but did have issues with cracking. I had the cracking issue. I've had better luck with a Carquest radiator...

    Cant find OEM MOPAR radiator, everything says discontinued for my part number

    Ah, I am probably going to catch some flack for this but I'll say it anyways. - Mopar doesn't manufacture radiators, they source them. - Mopar radiators on our models are known for fatigue cracks on the left side - All radiators with plastic ends on them are kind of junky because they are not...

    Battery is losing voltage on ‘05 Liberty Sport with 80k miles

    This kind of stuff can be hard to find, even with an easily readable wiring diagram. Basically if it has draw when parked, a relay is stuck on, or there is a small short somewhere on a wire that has always on power. That would be my thought process for narrowing down the hunt significantly...

    Creak/knock from driver's side wheel when turning left.

    Thanks for coming back to update and confirm resolution. Builds the knowledge base. Often people don't do that and there's no solution after a lot of reading.
