Nescosmo,
 
The dealer is Arrigo Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep 6500 Okeechobee Blvd West Palm Beach.
 
They will be hearing from me.

Okay,
 
Now for some questions.
 
1. Are you a lead foot when you accelerate from a stop?
2. Have you changed the air filter yet?
3. Which oil do you use and how often do you change it?
4. Is the trans full of fluid (IOW is it full?)
5. Are the hoses to and from the CAC in good order?
6. Have you ever cleaned the boost sensor?
7. Have you ever blown the EGR valve's "nose"?
 
I generally travel at speeds not greater than 65 MPH. Once you start pushing this baby past 2000 RPM it starts eating fuel. At 75 MPH cruise I get about 25 MPG. At 65 MPH I get 28 MPG and at 60 - 62 MPH I get 30 - 31 MPG. I also use cruise control as this little guy loves to run.
 
As for the fix, they changed out the torque converter and checked everything else. The TC had failed but was not blue as I was first told.
 
Are you in Florida? On a trip back from southern FL, we were greeted by a couple in a white CRD near Jacksonville on Route 95. Might you be them?

Today I saw a Grey CRD in Orlando at Orange Ave going south and turn on Sand Lake rd to the air port.
Please respond if you are around this forum.

EGR by 05crdjeep

Got EGR number two at 47000 miles (first one was at 18000).
 
It runs differently (better) and strangely, the shift points have migrated from 62 to 61 and from 53 to 52. When I get it into the highest lockup it now stays in that gear all the way down to 56-57 mph. The lockup at 61 used to be a little bump and now it is smoother.
 
Mileage is the same as before.
 
So the EGR situation can apparently affect the transmission shifting.

Does not seem to be much interest here anymore but I thought I would post my feelings here about my recently purchased 2006 CRD Limited. In short I love it. Just got home from a picture taking tour of the fall colors around West Virginia which included about 65% two lane roads going up and down the mountains and about 35% interstate. Close to 400 miles with an amazing 28.8 miles per gallon, I truly believe straight interstate would deliver 30+

This engine is fed with fuel according to a predicted acceleration under a given load. When the EGR doesn't react promptly, the acceleration isn't right and the shifting sequence is 'hesitating'. Mine has over 80,000 miles and shifts perfectly because I got rid of my EGR a long time ago. CO2 emission and fine dust particles are lower than advertised according to technical inspection every 2 years

Caribou,
 
Does the inspection include measurement of NOx (Oxides of Nitrogen)? The EGR is used to reduce that pollutant.

Winter2,
Not yet, my model year 2003 is just at the limit
I don't have any Lambda sensor before and/or after my catalytic element. Mine is only a diesel

need help i have a 2005 crd, at 45k my battery died and was replaced , at that time the dealer said the charging circuit was fine putting out 13.6 volts and it was likely a bad battery, well now at 90k second battery to completly fail, replaced battery myself and measured 14.5 volts on the battery when running. read the service manual and it says these spiral type batteries should not be charged at more than 14.4 volts. Can anyone with the same vehicle let me know what there battery is charching at or please provide any insight why I am losing a battery every 45k,Thanks for any help.
