guess that is why I didn't see a video on the 2.4 did see one on the 3.5 2010 tho and I agree on NOT using most aftermarket parts off amazon and most part stores for the same reason yes cheaper but as you said most don't work as good or last as long as OEM.

welcome to the group,,that said sorry to hear of this problem and sounds like you have a good bit of knowledge of what to check to find this out with no codes,,,have you checked the wire harness where it would be connected for the 2 wires that would have been cut off or rewired?hopefully dodge will respond back quickly on your problem and please report back on what you find out to be your solution,,for others that might ever have this problem,as I watch a couple of videos on it I have the 3.6 but my daughter had the 2.4 in her patriot as her mail vehicle and it was a real good workhorse eng for her,,only use the OEM plugs ( only about $15-20) for it tho and change them out every 30 k and no other problems till she got rid of it except having all the wheel hubs replaced as wheel

i believe you need someone to lift the hatch from the outside while you are turning the screw

yes there are a few ads as of now,I havent seen any just ask questions,,,, the site still works good as it always has for me

Had mine ( 2014 crossroad)done at the dealership at around 60 k and then had it done again at around 100 k when i had my plugs and coolant service done as well not cheap at the dealership but i have the lifetime warranty so i wanted it on record that they had done it...I wouldn't rec anyone to do a flush

How to: Replace viscous coupler ,,,,,,,, found in the forum one person replaced his you need to read it..listed under engine and drivetrain section.......also check out YouTube for videos related to your problem..here is one...

I don't have AWD but CV axles will clunk or make noise when turning as well,,there will be more qualified answers to come to you from here we have some good mechanics on here,,,but for your question on what yrs your local dealership parts dept will be the quickest and most dependable answer to that question..good luck

I doubt that this will help as the few folks that have mentioned a problem that only a very few have asked about and then never came back with their solution,if it was the clamps there would be a huge following about this problem,but I have seen some you tubes about the clamp vs clamp comparisons

nope,, in Alabama,,,born and raised in Clarkston Mi, moved south around age 23 raced Woodward Ave every Fri and Sat nite,if we weren't going over to Windsor Ca.

2014, 162 k, on the clock and everything still OEM org on the front end,a lot depends on how to drive and where you drive and how you take care of your vehicle, I did replace the upper rear lateral links since the OEM are non adjustable and went aftermarket with adj ones, never had a problem with our 2011 with them but the 2014 was wearing their tires a lot

thanks for the warnings as well..glad you found your problem before you overheated your engine and welcome to the group

welcome to the group, I hope some of our members in other parts of the world can help you most in this group are in the U.S. and we have no access to a diesel journey, but the part you need shouldn't be to hard to find on the internet..Please report back on what answer you find for others that might need this info

welcome to the group

I was reading up on that oil filter but doesn't it have a certain way/or delay to start the journey each time to pressure the unit with oil?

he never replied back on whatever he found out to be the problem, with car blogs replying back on your solutions are what make it better for others to fix their problems...pleas report back on what you find to be your solution to your problem,,, dealerships have the best knowledge about our journeys ...YES they cost more but work is warranted and sometimes cheaper than using a parts cannon,,,good luck and welcome to the group

as I said had the front end alignment and I had the mechanic check the brakes ,wheel hub bearings and struts out as well ,also its not the struts as actually they had been replaced last yr at the Nissan dealership

I just bought a K-N cabin air filter yrs ago, just pull it out wash it rinse it off let it dry a bit spray it with some air freshener then reinstall it and I do it twice a yr. saved me a bunch as well as the K-N air filter for the eng which I bought for my 2011 journey ( 70K)and then transferred it to my 2014 (presently 162 K) I clean and recoil it every oil change which is around every 6k or around 2 times a yr

I have a 2014 and even tho I have the Mopar lifetime warranty on i, I had the trans fluid changed at around 60-65k and then again around 100k if I remember right while they were replacing the plugs and also the coolant replacement, yes kind of pricey at the dealership but got it done right and on record just in case of problems..only makes since to change it out reg. To me a flush just doesn't make sense without changing the filter but its up to whoever and whatever they believe in

thanks I am waiting on getting his car next weekend or when ever he can get it by here

so all the problems started after the replacement of the starter? that is where I would start looking for your problems might be as easy as a bad or one that is loose, could be wires going to the starter shorting out as well, did you replace the starter or did you have a shop do it? to many things going wrong at the same time right after the starter install. might want to have them recheck what they did? also have your BATTERY load checked and also the alternator checked out at your local part stores and they can even check the starter out as well at least that is a free check as well good luck and please report back on what you find out to be the problem for others to learn from also how old is your battery? OEM? good clean and tight connections? also check the battery jump connectors up top of the engine as who ever might have disconnected it there from the battery during the starter install and didn't tighten them back up,you would be surprised people come here asking about electrical problems and then come back and say it was a loose battery connection,or dirty ,or a almost bad battery do the free cheap check first before using the parts cannon...P.S. Welcome to the group as well

the mechanic did switch the front tires thinking it might be the tires but it didn't change after swapping them,,after the alinement driving straight down the center of the road with hands off the steering wheel,,,but if you hit the gas pedal real hard it will pull to the right real fast,, going to have the grandson bring it over next weekend so I can look the engine mounts over real good have been watching a lot of you tube videos on replacing the top right front and there other one right behind it they call that one a torque mount sounds like the Altima seen to have problems with them, no mention of this problem just rotting out quickly,doesn't look to bad on replacing them....LOL

take some time and read thru the forum for a lot of GREAT and some bad advise,,take care

don't know how to share the Artical but here it is at this link https://moparinsiders.com/the-chinese-built-2024-dodge-journey-thrives-in-mexico/

well my grandson has a fwd Altima and I put it in for a 4 wheel alignment at the local garage as it would slowly drift to the right when going down the center crown of the road,well the mechanic called me and said it was the right side CV axle going bad as he said and we test drove it and while going straight he said to let go of the wheel and hit the gas and when I did it pulled real quick to the right, well I said okay to the replacement But it didn't fix that issue so he he reinstalled the OEM axle back and didn't charge me for any of that work(wow) and he did say it was out of alignment a bit, so he fixed that and he thinks it is the right engine mount going bad?? (((haven't had a good chance to check it out as he needed the car back right away to go to work in)))the mechanic checked the brakes and wheel bearing hub and said that wasn't the cause but that he doesn't do eng mounts and and on the Altima it was a real pain to change.... So what do you all think it could be I guess it could be the right side engine mount as he said..... other than hitting the gas real hard while letting go of the steering wheel the car drives fine no vibrations,no real noticeable symptoms, was doing this before I had the new plugs installed as well,,, 2018 4 cyl with around 120k on it, thanks in advance
