    Manual trans whine

    Stereo has been dead for years...lol. Shorted out in a downpour and I never felt the need to replace it.

    Manual trans whine

    Haven’t re-geared. Still have the 3.73 in there. Is there a way to verify this? Or do I have to pull the diff cover and inspect it? Would there be broken gears? What causes the noise if it comes from there?

    Manual trans whine

    It audibly drops off because the RPMs drop off. Some people mentioned a throw out bearing, but that was replaced when the clutch was replaced, and it existed both before and after the clutch job. I’ve had throw out issues before. This sound is not that.

    Manual trans whine

    2013 JK, manual transmission, 156k miles. Clutch and parts replaced 2000 miles ago. Jeep shifts and rides great, just an incessant “whine” coming from the area around the bell housing. Happens only under acceleration in 1-4th. Goes away at low RPM or when in 5th or 6th and cruising. New front...

    6 Speed gearbox rattle

    New front driveshaft is in. So far all quiet and the ride is a lot better.

    6 Speed gearbox rattle

    Turns out the front driveshaft and CV are shot. Mechanic is going to also check the transfer case while they are doing the work.

    6 Speed gearbox rattle

    I’m sure it’s the transfer case now. Went out wheeling and shifted into 4 hi no issue. Started rolling and there was a really loud metallic clack as the wheels started rolling. Shifted back into 2wd and the noise persisted and the Jeep stayed in 4 hi- even though the light on the dash was off...

    6 Speed gearbox rattle

    Would that cause the noise to be intermittent or would it be constant?

    6 Speed gearbox rattle

    13 Wrangler 6 speed. Clutch and all related parts replaced about 2000 miles ago. Starter replaced 1000 miles ago. This rattle started up about 200 miles ago. Jeep shifts fine, no problems going into gear, shifter feels solid with no extra play (more than expected from a Jeep, anyway). Noise...

    Engine Tick on 2014 JKUR

    I have the tick also in my 2013- I currently have 147k and the tick started at around 113k. Runs fine, but occasionally I will get a CEL with codes of cylinder misfires and engine knock sensor circuit issues. Lately, I have also noticed what sounds like a really bad engine knock from bad fuel...

    Regular gas spark knock

    I got the CEL knock sensor circuit code while traveling to Georgia from Florida the other day. Bad engine knocking even at low RPM. Apparently Ga gas is complete watered down garbage. Went from 15 mpg towing a camper down to 11 mpg. Cleared the code and gassed up in Florida and went back up to...

    Regular gas spark knock

    Had the knock on my 13 with 137k miles for a couple years. It clears up whenever I put non-ethanol in it (Sunoco and some Circle K's here in Florida sell it). This ethanol crap is what causes it to be more pronounced. Using an octane boost additive didn't do much to help it. Using the...
