I tried to remove the filter mount housing with a torx (star) T60 bit but it wouldn't budge. There must be another way to take it off. Any ideas would be helpful.
Well, that's all that I learned from fixing mine. I hope that saves you some time, trouble, and aggravation.
Off to trade in my Jeep for a Toyota.
You can tell the kit, the calipers are kind of a bright steel look.
My local dealer is quoting about sixty pounds sterling (approx 100 US Dollars) to replace the pipe plus two hours labour. Does this seem about right?!
Great reading about all the topics, I really like the vehicle and hope this is just a small issue!
even when full of gas have u tried resetting computer it worked for me abunch but not anymore
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I took my Jeep to Fair Oaks Jeep in Chantilly, VA for its oil change and asked about the TSB. The service writer hadn't heard of it, but we looked it up. The service tech looked at my transmission and noted that the dipstick tube is in solidly, and that water from the a/c doesn't go near it. No further action required. Based on this anecdotal evidence, it appears the water-from-a/c-in-transmission problem isn't that common. Anyone with this problem can find the TSB and get the dealer to fix your Jeep accordingly.
Any ideas? Is the tranny fried?
The bolts holding on the antenna can be reached by pulling back the plastic dirt guard from the passenger fender. You don't really need to take it all the way off; just pop a few of the plastic plug nut thingys and pull back the plastic enough to reach.
I'm probably going to take off the fender just so I can see what I'm doing, although that will be the last resort (I'm almost at that point though).
My question is, has anyone ever had this done and is that a fair bill?
Thanks

I have had the jeep in a couple times, one dealer said there was nothing wrong, and the other said there was a software problem. Can anyone give me some advice on what to tell the dealers to look for?
See http://www.wkjeeps.com/tsb/tsb_2101105A.pdf for a copy of the TSB.
Bottom line here is -- this appears to be what you have -- it can be fixed, it may take some time, but the dealer can do it -- show them the TSB! Good luck -- report back how it works out!
First Thing: Here recently, I've noticed a high pitched howling sound any time I get above 70 mph. It's been a silent hum but has started to get worse. I'm not sure if its the rear diff or the bearings.
Second thing ( the big one): The other day I was at the fuel station and I was topping off my tank as I was worried about fuel shortages ( after Hurricane Katrina rolled through, gas shot up 3.65 a gallon here in Memphis). Then it happened. GAS STARTED TO LEAK OUT FROM AROUND THE TANK AREA. Scared the living daylights out of me. I did not here the fuel filler click to let me know it was full. So the fuel kept leaking out so decided to drive the truck anyway and as I got to my destination, it stopped. But every since then, every time fill up, I can smell gas. Also the malfunction indicator light (check engine) came on while driving, got home shut the vehicle off turned it back on and it went off.
I'm at a lost on these problems. Any imput would be greatfully appreciated.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FELLOW JEEPERS.
Make sure they do an excellent job of cleaning out all of the dirt and mud in that area or you'll be doing it again.
The MIL is most likely related to the O ring issue.
So the O ring sits in a groove and the FDM seals against it.
I'm not 100% sure of the configuration on a 2001 but it will be very similar to how I described it.
You will know that it is the O ring if the puddle of gas is centered with the fuel tank.
If it is off to one side, it may be your filler hose instead.
One other comment. It is possible you could have a loose connection between the FDM and the fuel supply line but I doubt that is the cause since you mentioned it happens after you refuel.
Opah, check out the Idle or Stalling Problems - All Vehicles discussion while waiting for responses in here.
