Summer Solstice

^^^ What they said. Other than that, start by scanning for codes. If you are replacing parts, you can use a scanner, and they are inexpensive. If you are replacing multiple parts, it is likely cheaper to pay for a proper diagnostic and know exactly what the problem is.

Have to wonder if you have an intermittent connection on a connector you would have taken off to change injectors or plugs? A plug not firing would cause fuel to remain unburned. Sometimes the alcohol content may run high and needs to be reset. That takes the correct equipment.

The thumb drive needs to be FAT32 and the files need to be mp3. Sounds like you are already there but need to verify.

Start by checking your oil and coolant levels. Also, using a good light, scan the outside of the engine for evidence of fluid leaks.

Prior experience, on other domestic brands, has convinced me that, when it comes to sensors, OEM is the only way. Eliminates the trial and error.

I have just completed my 60 mile, round trip drive, in the " bomb cyclone of the century " here in SE MI. '16 FWD, 6cyc. First test on new all season tires. I was a bit apprehensive as the tires have been a bit disappointing in wet conditions. They exceeded my expectations and the drive was fine. Speed was reduced accordingly and the drive was 10 extra mins max. This is the 3rd set of tires on this vehicle. Tires are absolutely critical on the DJ as it isn't the best vehicle I have had for the snow but tires make all the difference in the world. I also had it aligned a few months ago and the air pressure is correct. A couple of other things I have experienced is DO NOT put your best tires on the front and substandard on the back with FWD. I also add weight to the back and that makes substantial difference in the FWD vehicle. I don't have it in yet this year and only add it for storms. This will be the 5th winter for this vehicle. It is what it is but proper maintenance and driving skill make a difference. I would not want to exceed the vehicle capabilities and have to recover it as it is not the best weight distribution.

Look underneath the car, dead center. There is a silver colored heat shield that wraps over the exhaust and beneath the floor. If this comes loose, it will flap and rattle against the floor and sound like the storage bins are loose. It is held in place by 6 or 8 studs and nuts and can tear loose easily if something contacts it. It can be extremely loud and annoying.

First thought would be to pull the fuse for the blue tooth module. Your phone still works but it's the simplest to try first. Second would be to disconnect the battery for 15 minutes and reset everything, jut like rebooting a computer. This often will correct a multitude of gremlins. Worth a try.

Actually, to clarify the above, if the clicking is suddenly abnormally loud, the blend door may be in the early stages of failure. A faint clicking and cycling sound is normal but blend door failure is a common problem on modern vehicles. I have a different vehicle that continued to work for a few months with a short burst of loud clicking before complete failure. At 10 years old, 2 of the 3 failed in short order. If it is abnormally loud, make sure you know which one it is. Most vehicles have two on the passenger side and one on the driver's side. Left, right, and main. Never done the Journey but, in general, inexpensive and easy to change for the two on the passenger side and a PITA on the driver's side.

If you really want the hemi, move up to a Durango. Trying to put a hemi in a Journey is a task relegated to the custom mod world. It would be extremely expensive in time and money.

That was a good read. Like the guy, or not, there was a lot of truth in the article. "You know, I could be drinking mai tais with naked supermodels, but instead I’m here with you.” Straight up honesty is always the best way. Thank-you for the link.
