Replying to: thundy (Nov 19, 2008 9:43 am) If the problem gets worse with the A/C turned on, it may be an engine belt issue (the A/C unit draws power from the engine belt). If the belt is too loose or too tight, it could contribute to the issues you're having.

Replying to: trek87 (Nov 19, 2008 11:02 am) OK thanxs! i will mention these suggestions to my mechanic tomorrow. I'm way over due from my transmission & other services. etc. When car was 60K, Shock & fan clutch been serviced. I get done my oil change every 3500 miles tho. but i know i have told that Jeep Grand Cherokee has some issues with transmission??? my spark plugs like you mentioned-been serviced sometime ago. however i lost all my records since i moved so many times. BTW car was keep continuing to vibrating when A.C. was turned off today. How often do you have to change the engine belt? when i was reading my manual it recommend 90K. service. Hope my mechanic can pin point the problem & give me honest estimate what i need to be done for 95K services. Thanxs again!!!

Replying to: thundy (Nov 19, 2008 2:11 pm) For max. reliable lifetime, change transmission fluid every and service repack both differentials every 30K. Change spark plugs every 30K to keep a ~5% edge on fuel economy (esp. w/ the V8's). I change my engine belt every 30K, depending on how worn it looks after 20K. The 90K service should include everything above. Good luck.
#287 of 353 Steering Squeak by scootter1 Nov 20, 2008 (11:12 am)
New to the forum here. I just purchased an 03 Cherokee Limited for my daughter. The steering wheel has a squeaking in it when turning left or right. I put some silicone spray on it where it goes through the firewall inside and out, but it sounds like it is coming from underneath the cover by the ignition. Is there something under there that can cause it to squeak.   Thanks in advance.   Scootter1 Replies to this message: tuggajb (Nov 20, 2008 2:02 pm) scootter1 (Nov 20, 2008 7:51 pm)

#290 of 353 1999 JGC noises by agill Nov 23, 2008 (4:55 pm)
Transfer case, np247 has VC, viscouse coupler, when the rear wheel slip vc will engage front wheels. These go bad making it difficult to shift into 4 low or even just grinding. probably easiest to replace whole thing, like 700 bucks for part, maybe 2 hours labor. Big bang from the rear when you hit bumps. There is a ball joint on the rear axle, 40.00, to replace. Just did it today, not to hard to do. Best to remove entire upper control arm on the rear axle. Do you get a clicking from the front axle when you turn, this is the cv joint on the axle. Squeek on speed bump=sway bar bushings.
#291 of 353 Jeep Noises by agill Nov 24, 2008 (6:30 pm)
recently i replaced the ball joint on the rear upper control arm. The major clunking went away but there is still some clunking. I know that there are bushings on the lower control arms as well. What i am not sure of is if this will clunk as well or if i need to replace the entire upper control arm (on the rear.) Not sure if it helps but it is a '99 JGC 4.7L laredo. Any Ideas?

#292 of 353 Need help... delayed thud noise coming to a slow stop from center column by cardiology11 Nov 25, 2008 (5:32 am)
Whenever I come to a slow rolling stop there is a the delayed "thump" you can feel under the center column. My car barely has 2000 miles on the, and it's been to the shop three times. They tell me they've checked the undercarriage nothing to lose or moving...." and all the noises are completely normal". For some reason, I just don't think my brand-new truck should be doing this. Also, at a stop light in drive there are seems to be a over exacerbated vibration, I'm not sure if this is normal either. SOMEONE please help shed some light on this. Thank you Mark Replies to this message: agill (Nov 25, 2008 7:28 am) cardiology11 (Nov 26, 2008 3:24 pm)

Replying to: cardiology11 (Nov 25, 2008 5:32 am) this may seem silly but check your jack and spare tire to see of it isd secure. There also could be something in the cargo area rolling around. Look in the sto under the rear passenger seats, under the front seats. You never know. Replies to this message: cardiology11 (Nov 26, 2008 3:24 pm)
