I have a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4.7. I have had it 7 years and it is my baby. These are some common issues. Oil leaks, sensor issues, thermostat, and normal wear n tear. Breaks, battery normal stuff. I love this jeep. It has started in negative 1 degrees and over 100 degrees. They are work horses. This year of jeep is amazing. They also need routine maintenance at this age.

Too help your ignition switch from going bad cause it’s sometimes a process to fix gotta take most the car apart to get at them but try not to have more then you need on your keychain. I just have my car keys and the key for my gas cap because the weight of the keychain puts downward pressure on the ignition and usually causes the tumblers inside to ware out making it had to start or even stay running. It’s a simple thing we all can do only carry the necessary keys you need.

I guess I'd call myself a KZfaq Mechanic, thanks to all of the resources. So here's my top 5...2009 JGC, 90K miles. 1. Starters 3 starters replaced, 1st was worn out, 2nd was faulty, 3rd is still working. I can replace these in 15 min now that I'm a pro. Pro tip. If your working on the ground, jack up front passenger side tire higher, it moves arm out of the way, making it easier to slip out starter so you don't have to remove drive shaft or struggle. 2. Water Pump Another easy 20 min job. Hardest part was cleaning the coolant out of the engine bay. I changed serpentine belt too. 3. Throttle body Harder than it needed to be, took about 2 hours to remove and replace. Turns out the connector was bad. 4. Leaking Sunroof Check for videos tips to clean the drains. I modified a plastic ice maker water line to fit an air gun. Works great to snake the whole way down. Flood with degreaser and rinse with clean water. I've been spraying drains with WD40. Didn't solve problem, I don't think glass seals right to the gasket. 5. Rear shaft seal Tough do do without a lift, and hard to remove the old seal with totally destroying it... Pro tip...in two different locations, tap both sides of casing with a punch to guide realignment before disassembly.

As for the oil leaks it could be coming from the valve cover. Maybe he needs new valve cover gaskets or need both the valve cover gasket and valve cover.

The WK is far more practical than a Wrangler, it's my trusty XJ replacement, and I've had 3 of those in the past. 16 years later my WK is my longest ever owned vehicle I've driven on a daily basis. With minimal drama or failures, it has never let me down, or left me stranded or even needed a tow truck (yet). All potential repairs are preceded by a subtle noise/clunk warning or an OBD2 code, so you at least can get it fixed before the event occurs. Nothing like preventative maintenance.

Have 4.7 '05 (Canadian) for 11 years and still going (215k miles). Things that went bad: - EGR valve replaced 3 times - Radiator plastic side tank cracked - replaced (also thermostat and both hoses while there) - Exhaust manifolds bolts broke on both sides causing exhaust leaks - twice - Front differential mounts - Both front half-axles - Both UCAs - Both Lower ball joints - Oil pressure sensor - Leaking transmission cooler lines - Ignition switch - Blender door actuator (passenger side) - Driver window sliding off the track - Leaking sunroof - Blower motor resistor - Starter has issues described in video - Front driveshaft grease leaked out - rebuilt the rear side with special kit - Transmission shifter (had to be cleaned) - Left multifunction switch contacts need cleaning every few years (dashboard flickering) - Windshield washer nozzles go very frequently - Backlight for radio/buttons gone - AC leaked out - condenser cracked - Rear differential becomes noisy over time - A LOT of rust underside and wheel arches. All I can remember at the moment. I'm not a mechanic but fixed/replaced all of this myself, except rear diff (too hard / expensive to fix). Precisely followed service intervals. Its easy to find factory service manual online, it has all you need to know. Forums and videos like this have tons of info. Haynes manual for this car is useless. Towing capacity is great, you can pull a trailer or boat. This Jeep shines in winter, feels very stable and solid on snow. Overall very reliable and enjoyable vehicle, looks great and pulls strong. If I had to go back 11 years I would still buy it without a second thought. Now these Jeeps cost nothing, parts are dirt cheap - great SUV on budget. Small mods made life easier: K&N reusable air filter, engine oil drain valve, transmission pan with drain plug (original does not have one, which make tranny service super messy).

I have 2008 WK, the biggest issue has been the water pump, on the 4th one, fails at about 30k miles and start leaking, I have had problems with the starter but it was only the ground wire, you need to clean the spade terminal and put dielectric grease on it, no problem since. Its best to take off the throttle body to clean the backside, its only 4 bolts, torque them to spec when re-installing. The piston seals in all the calipers start going bad at around 5 years, you can check this by jacking up the wheel and see if it turns freely, you can also check the rotor temps after driving with infrared thermometer, they should all be close in temps.

I have Jeep 2005 for the last 11 years. Had a problem with the starter once (about 8 or 9 years back). Fixed it by cleaning a cable contact on the starter: there was nothing wrong with the starter itself. And had a problem with the thermostat (twice - both permanently closed and then permanently open). BTW didn't have to disconnect the hose if it was OK, it was sufficient to remove two bolts on the hosing and move it aside with the hose still connected - saves some grief.

I replaced the starter around 100,000 miles. I've replaced SEVERAL thermostats. Granted I'm not running the stock stat, but 180 degree (cooler) ones from auto parts stores. Replaced water pump at 120,000 miles. New brakes/rotors at 125,000. New radiator, fan, hoses at 130,000. New front wheel bearings at 145,000 miles. Thermostat housing at 160,000. I have 170,000 miles now. Long term issues is underbody rust from winters in the midwest winter salt roads (my rockers have rusted away), intermittent electrical gremlins like dash likes flickering (I've had my ignition switch replaced/recalled), and the TMPS and back-up sensors giving errors intermittently on the dash display. But they work most of the time.

Missing 1 and the most important of all high mileage WK's is that the computer will fail over time due to excessive work and heat generated by the engine. Solution: Move the computer inside the cabin or change it Since the failure of the computer will cause the electronic systems to fail, the windows to not work and, most importantly, the fans, and that generates heating and eventually damaging your engine.

Cool Video!! I like the soft-spoken mechanic doing the presentation. Although my 2009 Jeep Cherokee doesn't have any of these issues, it does have an "unknown problem" that no mechanic has yet to figure out. When I am slowed down and ready to make a turn off the highway and into the post office or a fast food parking lot, etc (or just coasting out of a parking space, moving about 5 mph), when I turn the steering wheel almost all the way to the left there is a horrendous cracking sound!! I had the rack and pinion replaced, had the vehicle aligned. It was suggested a U-bolt may need to be replaced? Or bearings? I'm mechanically-challenged so I don't have a clue. I put a little money into it but don't want to keep buying more parts for an issue the service people are only guessing at. The cracking sound is SO LOUD and AUDIBLE, I've witnessed people walking on a nearby sidewalk literally run for cover!!! (My 15 year old said it sounds like a shotgun blast). I really like this Jeep; will ride it until the wheels fall off. (LOL).
@aelfwealld2 жыл бұрын
I’m a bit challenged too. But, I’m learning as much as I can so I can do repairs and stuff myself. I’m not sure how many things it could be but it sounds like it could possibly be a bearing. With it only happening while turning that should narrow it down. Can you get under there and look at it? Have someone turn your wheel to see if anything is catching under there. It would also narrow it down a bit more if it only does it while turning it one way and not the other. I know this probably isn’t too much help but what i’d suggest is joining a group specifically for Jeep’s. Lots of people are willing to help. Try Facebook or Reddit groups. There may be some groups specifically for the wk’s. If not just look up Jeep Grand Cherokee groups. Good luck, hopefully you get it resolved!

I have 2007 Laredo 2 wd 6 cylinder. Transmission burned up at 60k, had rebuilt, then rebuilt again about 7k later. Also has a habit of spitting out trans fluid when driven alot (like all day). Dealer said just don't have it filled all the way..... Never had any of these issues

Can you explain to me how I put a new alternator on my 2010 Jeep and now it has a rough idle and putters before starting and my ac blows strong but dies down and starts blowing strong again on and off. Again none of this was happening until I put a new alternator on it

Where I live these are all 3.0 V6 Mercedes Diesels OM642, so engine and fuel system are not an issue, what i have seen so far is that on every singel one that came to shop it had issues with trunk door installation, ex the rear wiper is not working. Also on few i have replaced the motor of the rear wiper since for some reason they stip all the gears Generally a nice car tho, looks stylish and heavy

We are 2 out of five, 2 radiators 2 water pumps 2 thermostat Windshield wipers relay it make the car go all electric Gremlin mode and the wipers didn't return to park place. Various Suspension parts. And problems with the rear hubs. Starter Throttle body Camshaft and crankshaft sensor 2 speed sensors in 15 years that's good. And oil leaks However I must say the car has been very reliable.

Let’s not forget leaking evaporator cores, blend air door motors that crap out prematurely, evaporative emissions leaks, the worst electrical wiring in the industry as far as brittleness goes, etc, etc. I made a lot of money on Jeep’s, especially Grand Cherokees. When the work they are probably the best snow vehicle made but they are rarely trouble free.
