For me...If Ive never repaired it before..Doesnt matter, I DO IT MYSELF and learn on the fly...If you think real hard Ill bet you can find a male friend who is Mechanicaly inclined or better yet fairly experienced...pay them to do the job.... At This point you are gonna pay the dealer more than the vehicle is worth. My dainty and mechanically challenged wife replaced her O2 sensor for the cost of the sensor $50.00 and about 35 minutes of her time most of that time was reading the manual.
Please help, need solutions........
Thanks in advance
I would suggest getting the dealer to use their scan tool to give you the correct code before you or anyone here proceeds to repair the wrong item.
1. Bad oxygen sensor (replace if needed)
2. Dirty MAF (clean or replace)
3. Vacuum leaks (vacuum lines, intake manifold gasket(s), etc.)
Start with these areas.
1) Insert key and turn forward as if to turn on car, but DON'T turn on. You will hear the chimes.
2) Turn back to original position.
3) Do this 3 times.
4) On 3rd time leave key in forward position (do not turn on), the car will chime. Look at the odometer section beneath the speedometer, I believe. Otherwise, look under the tachometer, there should be a small digital display as well. If there is a code, it will appear there starting with the letter "P"..ie P0122, P0171...etc.
This is off the top of my head since I am not in front of the vehicle. Our 03 Liberty had a stalling/rough idle that gave a code of P0122 (throttle position sensor) I ordered the part based on that code, swapped the part and the car runs great now. Hope this helps.
this is an 4x4 auto transmission
I am not too savvy about my Jeep lingo I will try to keep up :sick:
