    hello

    welcome to the group. what yr, and which trim level and eng?
  4. my back up cam has been acting up for the last yr well it finally quit working couple of weeks ago,so i just put the daughters wrangler in the dealership for some power train warranty(inner seal on the front axle) 4 by 4 she has 51600 on the clock so 60 k was the end of the warranty. so when i pick it up, ill drop the journey off since i have the mopar max warranty so it will only cost me my ded ( went with the $100)....ALL car manufactures have their own set of recurring problems....
  5. either splice new wire onto the old ones, or you buy a new wire loom from the dealership, yes this is a common problem on the journeys and of course yours is 8-9 yrs old but yes they did cheap out on the quality but all manufacture do it trying to make the lowest price vehicle with the most profit they can make, the old saying you get what you pay for is true in some respects
  6. oh well, i am sure no other car manufacture has their own set of problems,if this is your only complaint then you are a lucky man
  7. actually you are right but also with my dodges and my daughters jeeps i went on amazon and bought a big collection of the plastic fasteners...LOL more than i use in my lifetime as wait till you try to buy just one or two at the parts store they act like they are made of gold think i spent around $ 12-15 but i got plenty of them now and all kinds from the fenders to the windshield covers to the tail lights and some i dont know where the hell i will use them.....
  8. the Walmart's here in AL wont install a battery for a dodge Journey as i checked yrs ago.because of the location same with Auto Zone or any of the other part stores they will sell you one but wont do the free install... LOL
  9. dam clean that engine,if you ever get it running right again
  10. most of the better key shops have the fobs, not sure on how much cheaper than the dealership, also ask on face book as well LOL i know that sounds crazy but we have a lot of small places that do keys and fob's that you wouldn't know that they would have that kind of stuff good luck and report back on what you find out for others in your spot.........P.S. might want to upgrade to remote start thur mopar and still pricey but you would get new fobs with the upgrade
  11. rotors are warped more likely since it is the smaller ones, yes replace the battery,and also have Simone check the output on your alt, and yes the clicking is the blend doors trying to reset or adj the doors and or the plastic gears on the actuator are stripped or broken
  12. none off the self for a journey, some have said they custom made one, try googling on you tube for ideas and also take your time and look thru the forum here in the correct section for ideas ,,,good luck P S technically you already have a cold air intake since the air enters thur the grill and not from around the hot engine
  13. I came up with a warning once to check my gas cap, ( it actually said to check the gas cap) i just took it off and then re tightened it never another problem with it, seems like i read to rub a bit of Vaseline on the seal on the cap sometimes help.might just want to check the vacuum lines in the eng compartment as well for a tight fit at the ends
  14. 5.2 ? I assume that you mean a 2.4 engine, not sure but doesn't it have 2 thermostats , hope someone comments on how many there are.....you tube has a lot of good info and videos on how to check the doors, easier to watch then explain
  15. had an old (89) dodge truck that started with problems like you described and i replaced the starter thinking it was the ,solenoid but it didnt help sometimes it would start and others it wouldn't so i took it into the dealership and they said yes its the starter i told them hey thats a new one but they said no its the starter is bad so i let them install theirs and i also got mine back and got a refund at the part store, got my truck back worked great for a day or so then wouldn't start, they towed it back in and kept it for almost a week so they could try starting it during the had it but it would started every time so they called me to come get it and when i went to start it nothing so i hollered at the mechanic and service manger they looked at it and then a different mech walked by and seen them scratching their heads and talking he reached in and started messing with a small black box like module and said this is what is bad, they went and got another one hooked it up and it started and they said well that part cost me about $8. of course the starter and other stuff run me about $200, and never had any more trouble with it not starting,,, just a simple small part making a bad connection or starting to go bad

    Fogging

    well glad its working BUT i have a hard time believing that just the vent door adjustment would make a difference in the temperature for drivers and passenger side, as we leave our vents in the wide open selection, I also have my drivers vent aimed at the drivers window , and the passenger aimed at the passenger window as well, it helps keep it defogged when we first crank up in cold weather,, but hope it stays working for you
  17. I doubt it, just reset your message ( oil reset message) its in the manual on how to do it and see if the cel goes off but i dont think they are related to each other, if the cel light is on have some one check it with their scan tool, most auto store use to do that before the covid
  18. i have bought 2 sets of led both were around $40-60 and both said Canbus Ready ready, didnt have any problems with either set the first set had one go bad after about 4 yrs then i bought the other set just got them off amazon,good luck................ 9006 LED Headlight Bulbs Mini Sized 80W 16,000LM Per Pair CanBus Ready, AUXITO 9006/HB4 Headlight LED Bulb Conversion Kit, 6500K Xenon White, Pack of 2 Sold by: AUXITO Return window closed on Feb 2, 2020 $59.99
  19. guess it needs more than a starter, would guess the starter was a by product of what first went wrong...good luck
  20. tale it back and have the coolant system bleed it of air again
