I have 2 Grand Cherokees with issues,(electrical,x-mission,rear-end,oil sensor). The question to begin with is should I put them in different threads, or hit y'all with both models, and symptoms in one? Please advise.

Thanks wheelerboy. I have a 1995, and 1999. With the '95 I have chatter that sounds like it's coming from the diff. at parking lot speeds when I let off the gas, also after driving awhile(more than 20 mins.) it will buck during de-celleration.(similar to engine starving for gas/air). With the '99 the oil pressure gauge works perfectly, but after running for awhile, then pressure will start dropping.(oil level is good) Is it possible to clean the sensor?(blow it out?) With both of them there are radio issues. '99 only a/m works, '95 I had the same problem except after replacing the starter, now nothing works(radio or clock). I have checked the fuses on both and pulled the radio in the '95 to check the antenna cable, as well as the ground. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

On your 95 I suspect your pinion bearings are shot. With it on the ground and in neutral, see if you can turn the driveshaft by hand. ANY looseness is an indication of bearing or backlash problems.

Your oil pressure problem is indicative of worn bearings. Put a mechanical guage on it and see if it agrees with the electrical one. As you didn't state which engine you have, I couldn't comment farther.

Radios? Don't know.

I have also Grand Cherokee but multiple issues and I did not know how to fix that problem then my friend advised me to bring this vehicle to a reputed car care shop now i am satisfied and after 3 months not facing any problems.
