Re: 110k

Because I wouldn't touch a FCA product with a 10 foot pole. That's why the T&C and Caravan are the least most reliable minivan, the JGC is the least most reliable SUV, the 200 and 300, the least reliable sedans, etc, etc. And the Fiat 500L, which the Renegade is based on, is the least reliable ...

Re: CVT Replacment coming

Good to hear a positive warranty related issue resolved so easily and quickly. That is not the norm. I've been fortunate with my CVT. 107k and no issues. I changed fluid at 60k and will do so again at 120k. Plan on trading in by next spring.

Re: Security Code for Stock Head Unit Radio (Panasonic)

I had my original stereo replaced and was able to keep the steering wheel controls. It was done at a shop so I couldn't tell you how they did it, but it can be done.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Kizashi Today?

Did my spring cleaning ritual, including power washing underside and engine bay. I've done this every spring for 5 years now. Only this time I had a huge brain fart...I was pretty much done and went to bring the car back in the garage when all I got from the engine was a quick start up and stutterin...

Re: DIY Tire Rotation

I've jacked mine up dozens of times at the diff, using a standard hydraulic jack. Never had an issue. It just takes a bit longer to get the jack pumping, but it works just fine. I do use an old rag in between the jack plate and the diff to minimize marring. You can't any damage.
