I have a 2001 Jeep XJ 4.0 / Auto/ 4x4 About the start of the year after I took a long trip to texas my XJ started to get a studder in it. My XJ is cut after the cat, "which its a 01 so it has 3 cats", so when it studders it sounds as a little backfire. The studder only happens on days with...

I live in Kansas City Area and never have had a problem with the Cops. I have my muffler cut. But it is a 2001 so it does have two pre cats and one final cat. I do not know how a pre-pre cat cherokee sounds like straight piped. Mine is still pretty quiet from the outside. Sounds unique

Could be U-Joint. When I brake I get a light kluncking sound to, but I think that sound is in the back. What am I looking at paying for new U Joints? I dont realy want to do them myself seeing it could be one of those things that if you don't do right, it could make me wreck.

2001 XJ I noticed when I was in a parking lot, I turned the steering wheel all the way over to the left pulling into a spot, and the Jeep would kinda jerk a little, Almost like the way my dad truck does in four wheel drive. When it was turned all the way in any direction, and you drove, it...

I think it is a bearing. It is coming from the serp/belt now that I listen. Now to find what is causing it. It makes the noise every other or so start up, so it is a pain to pin-point it. Well anytime the hood is open, the bowl will be glowing in my Peterson. Burley and Virginia. I guess car...

I am going backpacking tomorrow so I will have to try this later in the week. I have heard as many cons as pros to BG44K but I think I will give it ago. I seafoamed it. Fun as heck to watch but it did not smooth my idle or help and any way I can hear or feel. Could there be any sensors I should...

Well the engine studders so to say. Its will idle fine, and then it will make almost like a hissing sound llike air is entering somewhere every few seconds. Another problem is when I give it about 95% throttle the motor makes a pa..pa sound. Sounds like air is being sucked into something.
