no wheel spacers from the factory. maybe can you provide a sound clip? if brakes and rotors are okay , do you have awd or just fwd?
-
just google on you tube, never have had to replace mine,they all are in a bad space to work on, i would only use a OEM MOPAR part myself will cost you more but better quality on a hard to change part...good luck ps as long as it is working and just clicking i wouldn't worry about it
-
my advise is to take it to a repair shop,you have spent $60, so far and still not what is even wrong, i dont fool with ac work as there are to many variables of what could be wrong, but if you are not hearing or seeing the compressor clutch starting and stopping then you either have a bad compressor and or leak in your system either way you will have to have the correct tools and knowledge to fix it,good luck
-
if you have dual air then you will have actuators in the rear as well, the clicking noise is when it iis resetting or a gear with a missing or broken thread on it.

nothing with new tires would cause engine problems like you described unless they messed with it, have the mechanic double check the battery under a load test and also might could be your throttle body causing the problem. good luck and please report back what you find to be your problem

Are my rear struts self-levelling????
2late4u replied to Raythecaddie's topic in Brake, Chassis & Suspension
check with your local dealership since you have a RT, they used different stiffness on the struts then reg journey, you can still go aftermarket as well -
yes your oil pressure sensor has shorted out and isn't reading correctly my 2014 did the same thing i had a extended warranty and it was fixed all i paid was ded. of 100.the dealership said the oil pressure just wasn't reading correctly due to it shorting out but that the correct oil pressure was never affected. you can google this repair on you tube.

2011 Dodge Journey Mainstreet Not Shifting Correctly
2late4u replied to ALLIEM's topic in Engine & Transmission
first off buying from a buy here and pay here car lot was your first mistake they buy all the crap that most honest dealerships wont keep and then resell it at a huge markup from what they paid for it,,,by the way have your boyfriend fix the oil cooler leak as driving with it leaking is a big chance on ruining your engine.good luck -
i had just seen this as well,dont have this kind mine are the old ones that have a long pin or bolt that you have to insert thur the hole to hold the jack in place,but all my years even when using them i still dont remove the jack i always just release enough weight onto the jack stands and then set the floor jack with enough pressure on it just in case...
-
not sure what you are asking about work with dynamic built in... but yes you can add both factory navigation radios and back up cameras as well,and any aftermarket items as well,,,you need to search the post dealing with either item you want to read,,,they both have been discussed quite extensively... lots of good info on both.
-
there is only on line manuals and you have to pay for them that is what has been posted on here before. sounds like you have found your problem you just need to figure out what is causing it to drain the battery good luck and report back what you find out for others that might have this problem

i have a 2014 crossroad and i only use rain X the pink washer fluid (winter time) that way dont have to worry about switching over before winter time and have never had any problems with my light coming on unless it gets low
-
you probably need to replace the thermostat for the overheating problem easy change there. also if its overheating while idling make sure to notice if your rad fan is turning on and off as it should,and use new coolant as well...the rest ill pass on as have no clue for all the different electrical problems...good luck
-
first where did you buy the actuators from, i would use a OEM from mopar for the next change yes more expensive but usually better quality than from parts stores and internet...https://www.moparpartsoverstock.com/ never have bought from them ..just a thought also if bought from dodge and installed should come with a 1 yr warranty as well

is the radiator fan working? that might be your problem if you are only over heating when you are hitting it hard, you might want to have it looked at by a garage or radiator shop before you over heat the engine and ruin it..
-
probally a plugged heater core or as above very low antifreeze coolant

to each his own..................here is a google answer................. Do larger tires get better gas mileage? The short answer is, no. Though, the real answer is a bit more complicated than a simple yes or no answer. The truth is that in many instances larger tires will not increase a vehicle’s fuel efficiency; however, there are many aspects of tires that can contribute a vehicle’s gas mileage apart from the tire’s size. One of the reasons that larger tires will not lead to an increase in a car’s gas mileage is because they are heavier than smaller tires – every extra pound will, in essence, decrease a vehicle’s fuel efficiency. Larger tires will not increase a vehicle’s fuel economy because larger tires generally have a high rolling resistance, which refers to the amount of force required to move a tire from a resting position. And the wider the tire the higher the rolling resistance is and the harder the engine has to work to move the tire, thus decreasing the car’s fuel efficiency. In reality, you really shouldn’t worry though about decreased fuel economy if you have or are planning to outfit your vehicle with larger tires. In most cases, the drop in fuel efficiency that someone might experience by outfitting their vehicle with larger tires is usually too small for the average person to notice. In April 2010, Car and Driver conducted a thorough test on a new Volkswagen Golf 2.5 to see how much of an impact larger tires had on the vehicle’s fuel efficiency. The Volkswagen Golf 2.5, which has a factory tire size of 15 x 6.0 inches was tested with tires as large as 19 x8.5 inches in the Car and Driver test. With the standard 15 x 6.0 in tires the Volkswagen Golf 2.5 was rated with a fuel economy of 23.3 miles per gallon (MPG) in the Car and Driver test. When the Volkswagen was equipped with 19 x 8.5 inch tires the fuel economy dropped to only 21.1 MPG – that’s less than a 10% decrease in fuel economy.

Fuzzy Backup Camera Image?
2late4u replied to rozey66's topic in Audio, Infotainment Navigation, MyGig, UConnect, etc.
mine is great you probally have an after market or possibly a bad or loose connection,go by your local dealership and take a journey for a test drive to see how it should look -
not true....it will throw off how fast you are really traveling. my journey came with 225 55 19 tires and i use 235 55 19 so when my journey says i am going 70 mph my Garmin will show me traveling 71 mph due to the tire size difference and also i would assume throw off my mpg that the journey says i am getting as the OEM tires would turn 702 revs/mile while the bigger size would turn 692 revs/mile,,,,,,,,,,,,, How a Change in Tire Size Affects Speedometer Accuracy When you change out your tires and wheels for a larger wheel, you always want to respect the overall diameter (OD) of the original tire. A lower profile tire must be placed on a larger wheel to keep the OD close to the same as the tire/wheel combination being replaced. You certainly never more than a 5% difference in OD to the original tire. Too large a variation could impact the gearing and correct operation of the vehicle. Also, any change in the tire OD will give you a false reading of speed and distance on your odometer. When your vehicle was new, the speedometer was calibrated by the factory according to the exact size of the intended tires. If you change to a taller tire, the circumference of the tire will also be greater. What this means is one rotation of the tire will take you further on your new tires than on your old tires. If the speedometer was never re-calibrated with the new tires, it will register a slower speed than you are travelling. For example, if your tire was 3% taller (still within approved guidelines for plus fitments) the gearing and operation of the vehicle would be fine, however your speedometer would show 60 mph, when in fact you are traveling 63.3 mph.
