I might be trading in my Cherokee. Any takers on car audio?

 

How dare you!?!

 

Jeeps are just a pain in the *** to maintain because of their poor cooling systems.

 

i have an 2001, i dont have any problems..

whats going on with your cooling sys?

 

Jeep overheats. I am not willing to buy all new cooling system parts and pay for the labor to get them put in. I am too lazy to put them in myself

 

-__-' well how does it over heat? all the time? only sometimes? well lets look at this at a differint angle.

first off make sure your cyl head is not creaked or has a blown head gaskit.

if that is good the jeep needs a cooling rebuild. not a big deal..

if you haveint looked in to prices or anything on parts, the lest youll need is a water pump, 195* thermostat. and MAYBE a rad. you dont need to get mopar stuff or anything fancy. now ive been thorugh this 3 times on my jeep.

i payed $220 for a water pump, thermostat, hoses AND! and new rad. so with that being said let say worst comes to worst you go somewhere and get this done and they charge you $250ish ( 3 hours over $80 an hour( lets just say ) ok so lets say worst comes to worst you pay $500ish on a cooling rebuild. ( maybe more, maybe less )


you rather trade in the jeep over some maintenance? i dont know what has been done or not done to your jeep. but if your cooling sys is all org like mine when i got my jeep. yeah i spent MORE then $500 to rebuild my cooling sys. i did that all at 118K now, im at 165K. its money well spent. if i can get 100k out of my rebuild, ill be happy.

 

sounds like you're not worthy to own this jeep so i hope you do trade it in

 

I don't 100% agree, don't get me wrong I will have me XJ until the wheels fall off (but then I'll fix her up again!) But if u want to trade urs in that's up to u, we don't know the full story of it. For all we know it could be a lemon and he's tired of it. So what did u plan on trading it in for???

 

lol @ jeeps being a pain in the *** to maintain

try working on a duramax or powerstroke truck

 

X2!!

 

this is one of the most idiotic thread on CF.

 

Okay I dont have anytime to work on my jeep because of college. I would love too but I spend all day every day after class studying and I get 3 hours of sleep a night

 

im in college also play football and do a lot of other campus activites study all the time do all homework. i still have a bunch of time to work on my jeep. i mostly work on it during the weekends if theres not practice since it takes up 8-9 hours out of the day

 

Whats your major?

 

im a double major. aviation managment in airline and corperate, flight operations. which means i spend 2-3 hours at the airport everyday flying
