    Back!

    Glad you made it home safe. Thanks for the blast of arctic air, single digits here this weekend.
  2. Both the 2.4 and 3.5/3.6 are used in numerous platforms. Engine repair should be the same if you can find one for another model. Curious as to the need for rocker arm repair?
  3. Welcome to the forum. What does your window sticker say? What trim level do you have? Do you have the phone buttons on the left side of the steering wheel? Without detailed info we have to ask a lot of questions.
  4. Glad it worked out. Thanks for reporting back. Vehicles these days are so sensitive. I always try the ol "reboot" before anything else. lol
  5. Bout a half inch bigger all around. Should be fine.
  6. You might have to resort to the old wrap a string around the sway bar and the measure. Or use a set of calipers to measure the diameter.
  7. Not necessarily, especially if they never greased them from the factory.
  8. Had the same issue with my front end clunk. Had to take it in twice and actually show them the TSB before they replaced the parts. First they just greased the sway bar bushings and said it was good. lol
  9. We had our 09 for 4 years and 80,000+ miles, never had any sort of bearing issue. That being said, it is not unheard of for rotating parts to fail. both bearings being rusted sounds like a lack of lubrication (grease) issue. I assume you actually saw the parts while still on the vehicle?
  10. Welcome to the forum. Check the accessories and modifications sections for ideas on customizing your DJ. Not much aftermarket out there but we have quite a few creative members who have done some amazing things with their rides.
  11. Thanks!! All I can say is Hawaii is not on my bucket list. I prefer the Caribbean: Cancun, Cozumel, etc. Have a safe trip home!
  12. Forum Rules: Dodge Journey Forum membership is diverse, covering people from various countries, backgrounds, ages and experiences. Considering this diversity and to make Dodge Journey Forum enjoyable for the majority of our membership, we have adopted the following simple posting guidelines. 1. Vulgar, offensive and/or inappropriate language, images and other offensive material including, but not limited to, race, nudity or pornography is not tolerated here. The Dodge Journey Forum staff shall be the sole judges of what does and what does not violate the boards standards. 2. While debating and discussion is fine, respect your fellow enthusiasts. Being of a diverse background, members are likely to express different opinions, and while opinions may differ from yours, they are just that, opinions; and everyone is entitled to express theirs freely. We will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, or personal attacks. Do not flame, bother, bug, disrespect, hound or taunt ANYONE on the forums or through private messaging or chat room. If we feel a thread is getting out of hand we will close or delete it. You can/will lose your posting privileges if you continue this type of behavior. 3. "Trolls or Trolling", "Flames" and/or "Board Wars" are not tolerated here or elsewhere. Posts that taunt or are otherwise inflammatory against other sites will be removed. Also, anyone found to be making inflammatory posts and remarks on other forums (starting Flame/Board Wars) can and will loose their posting privileges here. This rule also applies to those that, for whatever reason, feel a need to post negative remarks about this site on other forums. If you do, don't expect to be welcome here. 4. Double posting is not allowed and can result in the deletion of one or both posts. Double posting is defined as posting the same information in two or more separate forums. We understand that some topics might fit into more than one forum. Please try to pick the best one. In addition, please do not post in the same thread back to back (another version of double posting), if you have something more to add, edit your post, don't post twice in a row in a thread. 5. Selling or solicitation of ANYTHING in the general forum, by Private Message or in Chat is considered Spam and is not allowed. Anyone found posting excessive links to their websites, or suspected of "sneaky" advertising will be warned and will possibly lose their posting privileges. Please post your private party ads in the Dodge Journey Classifieds forum sections. If you are a business and have a product or service that would be of interest to our members, PM an admin to learn how you can join our team and help support our community. 6. Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short), "smiley" only, non-sense posts, memes and such. Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count ("post whoring") is frowned upon. If you do engage in this type of activity, we can prevent your post count from increasing from that point forward or possibly ban your account. 7. No promotions of other related sites. Referring to other related sites is considered "SPAM" and is not allowed. Please have the decency of NOT putting links to them in your signature, profile or have a post, PM or Chat telling our members to come over to another related site. Such activity is ground for removal from signature, and repeated offenses are grounds for being banned. 8. You are not allowed to post links that lead to an affiliate program or that in any way earn you something. We consider you earning something if you have an affiliate ID, website, or if you earn money from banner impressions or click-thru's. If you feel that you have a service or product that the members of Dodge Journey Forum can benefit from notify the Administrator. 9. Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed and can quite possibly result in both accounts being removed without notice. 10. Illegal transactions/sites, selling of personal information (i.e. credit cards, e-mail addresses), pornography, etc are not allowed in the forums and will result in the deletion of the post and the revocation of your posting privileges. 11. Don't post "Hey BigJoe1456"as a thread, if you need to speak to someone specifically, PM or email them. 12. Use proper terms, spelling and grammar. It's easy to post from a phone, but please read what you are about to oust before posting. If you can take the time to compose a coherent post, we are not going to take the time to attempt interpretation. 13. While these rules cover most common situations, we cannot anticipate everything. Therefore, we reserve the right to take any actions we deem appropriate to ensure our site is not disrupted or abused in any way. 14. Signature images must be limited to 500 WIDE by 250 TALL at the MAX. 15. Moderators and Administrators have final word in anything and everything. If you have a problem or a complaint direct it to them, not to the general forums. They will then take the appropriate actions. This applies to issues with the forum in general, as well as issues with other members. 16. We ask that members keep in mind membership is a privilege, NOT a right, and as a private forum, the administration and moderators have total say as to which members are, and are not allowed. The same rule applies for single posts and threads, and anything deemed to be inappropriate by any member of the staff will be removed. Members who continue to ignore this rule will be removed with no possibility of return.
  13. Can we lock this thread? Opinions abound. Everyone has their own. It's pointless to argue about who thinks what sounds better.
  14. What is the actual code? Pull the plug and inspect. Mileage? Engine size? Last tune up?
  15. Welcome to the forum. We can help you out with your problems. Please start a separate thread in the correct section if you have a specific problem.
  16. Moved to the correct section. The forum help and suggestions section in which you posted in is for reporting forum issues, not vehicle specific technical issues. The code is a big deal unless you have verified your oil level. There have been a few instances of a faulty oil pressure switch causing this code. Get yourself a code reader so you don't have to wait to bring it to the dealer to have the code read, or take it by a parts store. It's most likely a faulty sensor, but at least make sure you have the oil at the proper level before driving. Is the dealer going to fix I? Did you ask them if it was a big deal to drive it for 4 days with the code on? It is also helpful to the group if you state the year, engine and mileage of the vehicle.
