My 2006 Jeep Grand ch, V8 will turn off while driving, it is my main car I travle all day with kids, this is not safe! It may do it one week then not the next. I have taken it to the dealer and ran the tests on it and nothing is showing on the computer to show a problem. It will do it at random, it has happened at 35mph and today at 75 on the highway. No lights on the dash show. The dealer said until a light shows they can not know the problem. Help!!!!!

| I have a 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, in the last few days i haven't been able to drive it. It starts, but after a few seconds it dies, has been always like that. What could be the possible problems. I thought it was the alarm system because before i had a problem in which the car wouldnt start, because i had lost the remote, but i'm just confused. Anybody has an idea what it might be? | |

2000 Jeep grand cherokee pushing 215,000. miles stills runs good but now at low idle in or out of gear it idles at or bellow 5,000 rpm sometimes so low that it stalls out. When I give it gas it runs good until the vehicle comes to a stop, then it dies. Temperature does seem to have an effect the colder the outside temp or if the eng is cold it seems to do it more often, It is not a consistent problem, but it occurs often. I took it to a shop a while back they said the check eng light threw out air intake censor problem, I replaced it twice each time it helps for a little while then goes back to same old pattern. Now whatever code its throwing out, the check eng light does not stay on all the time, its on and off. I am kind of tight on cash right now specially the way things are these days, Just getting the code read is going to cost over $100.00, am a diesel mechanic but gas engines are a headache! Does any body have any advice? Please

Replying to: jhonp (Nov 12, 2009 5:45 pm) when i let off the gas it might stall. happens 1 to 4 times a day. GOT NO CODES..... so far i have replaced the crank shaft sensor - it stopped stalling for 3 days $130 cleaned the throttle boddy free replaced the throttle position sensor $72 replaced the idle air control sensor $132 replaced the map manafold airflow sensor $125 no luck it is still stalling. by the way i have done all the work myself. it was about 30 minutes for most parts NOT POSITIVE ON THE PARTS PRICES i just ordered a rebuilt ecu or pcu engine control unit. they program in the vin, mileage and part nbr so you gc will recognize it. $185 we will see when that comes..... SWAPPED OUT THE ECU AND THIS SEEMS TO HAVE SOLVED IT........ IF I WERE YOU I WOULD START WITH THE ECU alan |
