Winter2,
 
Saw the post for the speaker question. Searched for a back up copy of my canadian sourced? cd shop manual. Probably gave that and the original away at the same time. Wish now I had sent it to you.
 
Checking in from time to time to see the results of your tire purchase. I was wrong about my cycle tires used years ago. Believe we went with metzler but avon was a brand chosen by others.
 
I believe redline 15w40 was in the crd when we traded it in. Can't find anything in the redline file and the huge crd file is long gone. I think that was the first time I talked to Dave but also it has been awhile since dfw flirted with zero degrees.

Final tire question, I hope... by winter2

I have done a fair amount of looking, touching, and questioning and now it comes down to size.
 
My CRD came with 225/75/16. Chrysler, Costco, and Tirerack does not show an optional size, however some local tire dealers have stated that a 235/70/16 and even a 245/70/16 tire will also fit without touching or hitting any of the suspension components. I am skeptical about sticking a 245 tire on the CRD but I would probably be content with the 235 tire. Most 225 tires are LT and that would make the ride too stiff.
 
All thoughts and opinions welcome.

I put 235/70/16s Coopers on mine and they fit great. They are the Discovery ATR and they have a very aggressive tread that does not sing and are warranted for 50000 miles.

EGR again..or transmission? by jr101

Well, only after 8 weeks from being in the shop, my little crd is back again. This is my 9th trip in less then 2 years. In Sept I replaced my 4th EGR and once again my engine light came on. Brough it back to the dealer, NOW they are saying my transmission is gone. I have about 62000 miles on it, bought the extended warrenty 2 years ago and I'm less than 2000 mile over it now. However, it is acting the exact same way it did when i hd to replace my 3 glow plugs - all they have done thus far is a basic diagnostic with their little machine...

Bad glow plug? by prairiegirl

Engine light came on - dealer says it is a bad glow plug. Shouldn't glow plugs last longer than this? I've only got 32,000 miles on my little '06 Liberty. Are glow plugs covered by my extended warranty?

Does anyone know of a really experienced Jeep diesel mechanic in the Tulsa area? Love my dealer in Claremore and have had very good experiences with other vehicles. But, they themselves admit they don't work on diesel Liberty very often.

Should be covered on your origiinal factory warrant, 36,000 or less.

Hi Winter. Well I think I may have the EGR problem solved. After my last comment I cleaned the MAP Sensor and the Boost Pressure Sensor with cleaner. That seemed to solve the problem but to be on the safe side and after consulting with te repuable dealer the dealer warrantied the EGR valve ans defective and replaced it. Hopefully this will solve the issue . I have learned a lot about my problem and wish to thank all who participated in fixing this problem. Chrysler really needs to step up to the plate ion this and find a alternative for the EGR system on this unit. I understnad this is a constant problem on the vehicle and they should take care of it no matter what. I also understand one can buy what is called an EGR Kit to bypass the EGR. While this won't help in states the requireire emission testing and can not be done by the dealer I would think that it would help in severe issues like mine. Thanks again. Wish me luck and I hope the damn light does not come back on again.

It is past the 36 months, that is the reason I was asking about the extended warranty. If it is covered by the original warranty then it SHOULD be covered by the extended warranty I would think. Bought the best warranty available.
