Less than a week old to us and the mods have started.

Picked up a set of Rubicon sliders to replace the running boards.



Much better

Not a word from Jeep yet. Personally I think they stuffed up and the timing chain tensioner or something shifted. Probably did not torque it up correctly.Don't think it was the head. It escalated from CEL to complete misfiring like crazy in less than a km at 60 and I would hope that I will get more than 400km out of a head! But have to remain positive and hope they will at least organise a loaner for me.

Sounds like a part/installation failure...the head, even when faulty, doesn't cause that sort of misfiring.....

First time to take my jeep for a little forest walk.



Might be a good time to start researching new tyres as well..
