New jeep idle issue....the fun never stops
The symptoms are a somewhat jumpy or boggy idle when the engine is started from totally cold. When the engine warms up, the somewhat idle jumpyness calms down considerably. Even with the engine warmed all the way up, the jeep bogs down a little bit when I come to a stop, but not everytime.

Is there any codes present on your dash or reader? Cycle key on engine off 3x and see if odometer displays any codes. I had a similar idle issue, I had a vacuum leak. Are there any whistling or hissing noises present?

if there is any hissing I can't hear it. No codes being thrown. I can check later by cycling the engine off and on 3x to be sure. Where did you have the vacuum leak at?
