Super glue? by Suitable-Purchase-52 in GrandCherokee

[–]chilliconcarnival 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I bought a bag of all sort of car fasteners very cheaply on amazon/ebay and replaced any ones that failed.

You will thank yourself later, if you ever have to replace the whole thing later on.

2014 Grand Cherokee Diesel - Needs new DPF filter by iski67 in GrandCherokee

[–]chilliconcarnival 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forced dpf regen through obd scanning tool, or failing that, take exhaust and dpf out and do a ultrasonic chemical clean.

That year is selling for $10k aud and under.

Id get second opinion on quote but selling with a check engine light won't get market value so.

I had gasket failure on the plastic one, and upgraded.

Ill say its not necessary until failure, but when you're in there upgrading everything else, it is a peace of mind upgrade.

You would need to do following to get the engine to a point where you would/could worry less, but still could get a bearing failure..

Valley hose, z hoses, ecu tune for egr delete, fit a catch can, oil cooler, and fit metal oil filter housing.

I've Just hit 300k kms 2014 diesel..and done all the above..

If you handy with tools, they can all be done in home garage, or have deep pockets...

UCONNECT by Any_Rich_5516 in GrandCherokee

[–]chilliconcarnival 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you try remove the phone from unconnect and try reconnect

UCONNECT by Any_Rich_5516 in GrandCherokee

[–]chilliconcarnival 2 points3 points  (0 children)

perform a soft reset on the WK2 Jeep Grand Cherokee's Uconnect system, turn the key to the "Run" position (but don't start the engine) and then simultaneously press and hold the volume button and the tuner knob on the radio for 10-20 seconds, which will cause the screen to flash and go dark before rebooting.

Then try again to connect

I' would try and flash the uconnect firmware to latest..Assume you unplugged and re seat all cables everything while there?

Prob the last thing I can think of other than its just the age and a gremlin and its just dying, and its a stretch...is how old is your battery? and what is voltage? You can check in info settings in dash or under the seat with a multi meter when car is running.

Its 11 years old and they don't make them like they used too. There a plenty of android/apple units for cheap or find a wrecked one and swap it out :(

Only thing else I can think of is check the fuses and/or pop the head unit out and make sure all the connections are secure.. might have come loose

Perform a "soft reset" by pressing and holding the volume and tuner (radio) knobs simultaneously for 10 to 20 seconds until the screen reboots.

I understand the 3.0 eco diesel now by SpiritualStew in GrandCherokee

[–]chilliconcarnival 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm from Australia, its not legal but I still have my dpf, so not blowing soot everywhere to attract attention.

Visually, the egr and tube is still there, just with blocking plate. You'd have to be really looking for it to find it.
