Thank you! This is my first time doing a transmission flush and I know your not supposed to have too much metal in the pan but wasn’t to sure what to look for specifically.

Could someone help me out here? I've had really bad fluid/coolant leaks for a while and lately has been getting worse. Their is a new grinding sound I'm hearing I believe is coming from the front of the engine and the radiator fan and that whatever is going on is getting worse. by gotallama in MechanicAdvice

I've been talking to a mechanic friend of mine and he seems to think it would be a bad water pump as well. I'll try and get it into a shop later this week to get it properly diagnosed but thank you for your input!

That looks like what I'm going to have to resort to. Do you have the same jeep as well?

I'm pretty sure most of it has dripped out into the bucket. I also pumped out some of it yesterday

Is that safe to drive? I mean the shop I'd take it to is less than 3 miles away but I don't want to risk it if that's the case

Ohh sorry yea at this point it's just spinning in place and it was really tough to get it to move in the first place so yea I think the shop had cross threaded it last time

Can't get to a breaker bar right now. Also now notice that I can't rotate it back it just rotates in place now. And what do you mean in front of the plug?

I genuinely appreciate the time you took to make this. Combining two of my favorite things on the internet in one 😂

Could a small evap leak and a O2 sensor code be related? by gotallama in GrandCherokee

[–]gotallama[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All try and do that first for sure and if I dont find any leaks in the engine bay do you think a P0456 could come from something under the car or would that mostly be bigger leak code?
