JK CRD Big End Failures Hi All,
We have noticed a reasonable number of JK CRD big end issues showing up on the forum. If your CRD has experienced a big end failure please list details of it here. If we get enough replies then a trend may appear, helping others to avoid the issue. To begin with this thread should focus mainly on big end failures so please try and keep things specific. Details of interest include (but not limited to): Failure type Model Year Kms at time of failure Gearbox type Any ECU tune installed Any EGR removal Catch can installed General Service interval Oil weight and type used Location Tyres size and diff ratios % time spent used under reasonable load, i.e. towing or with significant weight on board ADDED: kms on odometer when purchased Transmission cooler added? (if so, location?) Cheers |
