I mean yeah that’s different, especially if you can diagnose with your eyes that the metallic bits you see are directly from the synchros. I thought you were complaining at any metallic bits in the fluid which I’d say better not look at your gear fluid or magnets when you change those.
Have there been any failures? Seems like lots of noise but no failures. Kinda reminds me of the GM pistons slap fiasco from the early 2000s although there was no bulletin on that one, just lots of complaints. Some of those engines may still be going today with 500k+ miles still with piston slap lol.
Picked up a base 2023 2-door in Shadow Black on Monday. Zero options, and I’m loving it so far. Game planning on what I want to do to it since it’s such a blank canvas. Most of my modifications will be subtle but nice.
I have a brand new 2023 Base with less than 100 miles and I heard a noise from under it today when cold. Wasn’t super loud but with the radio and hvac off I could hear the noise go away when I pressed in the clutch pedal and it came back after releasing it.
When I have more time I’ll try and...
If you don’t care about Bilstein quality or retainment of warranty then it sounds like eibachs may be for you.
If people want likely a superior ride quality and warrant sounds like FP has the product for them.
Planning on picking up my new 2023 2-door base with zero options on Monday. Was dealer inventory (but with a green special order sticker). Just happened to drive by my local dealer and they had it out front.
I’ve been trying to find good deals on Wranglers for months but hard to justify $40k...
Drove by my local dealer a couple days ago they had a base 2-door in the front and stopped to check it out. Wasn’t there the week before so they must have just gotten it.
Went home and it wasn’t on their website so I called the next morning inquiring if it was available (it had a special order...
Basically 2 door, hard top, manual trans. I've driven the JL and it's leaps and bounds nicer than the JK I had before. Reviews have stated the on-road manners of the Bronco are better.
Problem is there's none around to test drive to even see if I like it.
I'm kind of torn on this. The 2023 JL Sport and Willys Sport are cheaper than the 2022's because the 7" radio and A/C are now standard. MSRP for a Willys Sport spec'd out to what I'd order comes out to $37,285 while the Bronco comes in at $39,780. Both manuals, I'd prefer the 2.3 to the 3.6...
