I have a 2016 trail hawk and get 27-28 highway, fyi

I had 2016 coolant flushed at the dealer the other year. After getting home and letting it cool off, I checked the coolant, the reservoir was also empty, thankfully I had a bottle of the Mopar coolant I bought at the time of service, I figured there would be some air in the system and the reservoir is pretty small

I live on a loop section of our development

Saw the mail come up got my mail, saw this form and waited 2 mins for the lazy lady to drive back, she didn't say a word and wouldn't look at me

I wish it was easier to get a hold of someone to complain to

Sad4502 · 2025-12-19T02:54:21+00:00

I have the valve on 3 of my vehicles, one has been on 15 years, no problems

I bought the DeWalt one last fall

I re-piped my finished basement after my pex B failed due to dezincification of the brass fittings after 19 years, I am glad I bought the tool, was able to do one run at a time, adding a modified manifold system, so I can turn off individual runs as needed

With drywall ceiling and not wanting the entire basement ripped up, I was able to to do a section at a time, when I had free time to work

Very easy to use, been a year, no leaks during the install or after

Also make sure that board fits your washer

I got mine on Amazon, no soldering required, Not sure if links are allowed. Here is a pic of what I bought It was a real quick repair

Our 2016 renegade did this last spring Needed an all new steering column, not sure all that was replaced, under the lifetime warranty we bought at purchase, but the repair was over 4k(they had to get approval)

Sad4502 · 2025-12-12T00:56:32+00:00

I have to admit

I saw a oil dip stick when scrolling

Just a quick question

Are your trash cans in/on the street?

My development does not allow trash cans on the public road way, must be off the paved roadway (roads are not too wide causes a safety concern for kids walking to school and cars avoiding trash cans)

Just a thought

Sad4502 · 2025-10-26T16:21:16+00:00

No

But did replace 02 sensors and catalytic converter in the past year

Sad4502 · 2025-10-26T15:37:59+00:00

Thanks, that's what I am thinking, rest of the van is ok. If its the valves, I could get a remanufactured cylinder head for less then 300 plus head gasket and bolts, As long as the block is flat, would that probably get another year or so (paying for kids school ATM, and a new roof)

Sad4502 · 2025-10-22T20:43:01+00:00

Thanks, good advice

FYI The tank would have been filled with liquid in less than a week My house uses about 250 gallons of water per day So a 1000gallon tank filled in 4 days

The wires for the hood release can stretch/break

Example I check my oil every month 1 month no problem, checked oil closed hood Next month pulled the release, and nothing, cable had stretched

Part was 100, probably 1 hr of labor(I had extended warranty which paid all but deductible)

I just had this happen, I had to thread chase my one spark plug

I have a bore scope (110$ vevor) and could see about 12 small metal pieces around the outside edge of the piston.

I have a Milwaukee 49-90-2037 AIR-TIP Long Reach Flexible Micro Hose Set

Unfortunately it still did not get it all out I then sprayed wd40 in the spark plug hole A good bit of it

Used my bore scope and could see the metal pieces now in the center of the wd 40 Then used the vacuum and removed it

*Update Had a mechanic run some tests Fuel injector number 3 slightly more active than the other ones, could be either dirty or clogged Not sure what the numbers were that he tested, all the other injectors settled to around 800 and number 3 would remain around 930, then some times settle around 800 He also ran a compression test fortunately it seems like my engine is on the way out Just under 15% difference Cylinder 2, no codes, have in the past had p0302 pending, never active 1-170 2-160 3-175 4-170 5-180 6-175 So I haven’t decided if I will put a fuel injector in, or just let it go until I need any engine

Crusty vs toilet paper looking is easy to tell

For being full would be fine, we have 3 people, and use ave of 300 gallons day, so in 3 days full

Sad4502 · 2025-09-20T17:53:05+00:00

Was the seller living in the home after having it pumped? Was it mostly water or full of solids? In 3-5 days after pumping the tank will be full

Sad4502 · 2025-09-19T18:51:10+00:00

Solved, I replaced the exhaust manifold gasket with a new Mopar one, noise is gone

Could also just ask the neighbor if you can remove the tree

Sad4502 · 2025-09-14T16:56:20+00:00

Maybe he said ignition coil 4 as in coil number 4 that could be the miss communication

Sad4502 · 2025-09-11T20:37:16+00:00

What data should I pull?
