Straight six with a snail (or two) on it would be awesome

I’ve had “new ones” 4 bangers are not for me, I may go drive a landcruiser and new 4Runner just to make sure but I pretty much already got it in my head as a nope

2.6 ? , the 3.6 is garbage in the Jeep I had a 2.0 turbo which was worthless I just want no part of a 4 cylinder hamster wheel my experience with them is my experience with them same as yours is yours, if this goes south with mine meaning future problems after having my engine apart I’ll dump...

Yeah the oil pressure or lack there of between the plates of the cam phasers will give the dieseling noise, I here ya but for me personally a little 4 banger is just to small for a 6k lb vehicle I made that mistake ounce never again I live in hill country nothing is flat I swear by the “no...

I don’t know man, here’s what happened to me now I know it’s a 2.7 but the 2.7 and the 3.0 are both susceptible to the dreaded cam phaser bullshit, it has 1200 miles on it I started it to jockey vehicles around to get the bronco down by the garage to detail no issue, 2.5 hours latter started to...

Melting cats is a typical problem With boosted engines generally in stock form there’s usually no problem you may have just got defective cats from the manufacturer

Sounds exactly what my 2.7 sounded like it’s at the dealer now getting the engine torn apart to do cam phasers only thing is mine would only do it for the first 5seconds or so at start up yours sounds like it stays like that

Oh hell no a little 4 banger is completely unacceptable to me in anything other than a lite 3k lb car or something, if this goes south on me I’ll wait and hope the 3.0 inline 6 hurricane makes its way into the grand Cherokee, I’ve already ruled out the new 4Runner and land cruiser because of...

Yeah mine too ugh, damn it I can see this causing all sorts of future issues

Oh shit I didn’t know they were gonna pull my engine F I thought they just fed to pull the top end apart

That’s exactly what mine does , it won’t let me upload my sound clip but that is 100% cam phasers take it in to the dealer

Yours seems different than what I have then going off what you’re sayin, this is at initial start up for the first 3-5 seconds sound like ball bearings shaken in a can loud and distinctive stops way before the idle kicks down

Aeh if it fails again then they’ll be pulling it apart and doing it again

I hear ya, my main concern is being this will be on the vehicles record now that they pulled the top of the engine apart is this going to screw me on trade value in 3 years when I trade

I tried to post the video of it but it wouldn’t let me I don’t know what yours sounds like but when this started happening it sounded like an old school mechanical diesel for a few seconds

Yeah I know I would never let something go that sounded like a spun bearing I literally stopped driving it as soon as I heard it the first time freaken thing sounded like an old school Cummins 4bt

Oh you just run it like that, videos I’ve seen that the engine was ran for long periods of time ( thousands of miles) it created more damage and lead to engine failure

Ugh thats what I figured, thanks

I did a search nothing popped up, I have a 24 badlands 4 door 2.7 today with 1200 miles on it, after it sits for a couple hours on start up it makes a god awful noise (engine noise) almost like a spun bearing for a few seconds anybody have any ideas, I’ll be calling the dealer on Monday that’s...

Not sure what material they are maybe tpe but been using husky liners weather beaters for years they take a beating wash off easy and can usually find a deal that puts them at the best price point
