It'd be interesting to know too if the notorious TIPM has anything to do with that. It plays random havok on just about everything else when it decides to out. Mine killed my cruise control

It's sad that's all the go for on insurance auctions. Go on Copart and IAA and see them sell all the time for 5 to 8k. Especially mechanical issued ones. Engines are super expensive and finding a crankshaft for one is nearly impossible that's not Chinese cast steel. My local Dodge dealer told me...

Ordered and installed a remanned TIPM. No change. Took your advise, checked the alternator. It was junk. Barely rotated by hand. New alternator, hit the key and fired right up. Expensive learning curve for sure. Thanks

I did check for rotation when I took the starter out and turned with a small screwdriver. Onto last resort now. I have a new TIPM coming. I know when they often fail, the sky's pretty much the limit for what they can make go wrong. Place out of Florida sells plug and play rebuilt ones with 2 yr...

My 2014 Ecodiesel giving me yet another headache. Last week jumped in to go to work. Turned the key, everything powered up like normal. Went to start and made 3 clicks like the battery was low. Tried again and it made a single louder pop sound. Made the same noise about 6 weeks ago when the...

Easiest way to get an inspection camera in to see it might be to remove the water pump or maybe removing the passenger side fuel rail. It's under the intake runner for the head. Dorman makes a steel braided replacement around $110 or I've heard of cutting the old rubber hose portion off and...

I believe 2014 to 2018 and Ive seen til 2019 and they are different than the ones in the grand Cherokee with the Eco

Deal! Happy to help! Good luck with it. I wouldn't give up on this little engine that can

Modern mass production. Factory can install 3 different thickness of head gaskets. Aftermarket ones are thickest March from factory. My crank was cracked so opted for a Chinese knockoff. Was in my price range. I.did not find undersized bearings for it but like the head gaskets, factory could...

Parts aren't too bad. Bought a lot off evil bay. Heads were just very carboned up. Glow plugs were the worst to remove. Absolute nightmare. Guides were great. Just a simple valve job

Bought the truck with a rod knock. Good deal on it. 158,000 miles. Turns out it was a LKQ motor in it. So not sure how many miles truly on it. Got it apart. Had spun middle rod bearing. Spun the main bearing next to it. Also maged the crank and found it cracked as well. When whoever swapped...

I used Empire Diesel. No issues and they have been very helpful. Reasonably priced too with the tune and delete kit. Down side to getting just a bench flash is that if you take your truck back to the dealer for service or recall work, they will flash your ECU with update and that will delete...

Just fully rebuilt mine. You'll need to get the cam lock timing set. Fairly inexpensive on Amazon but priceless to have. The cams are pinned into position and there is a plug on the driver's side of the block to put a pin into lock the crankshaft into position
