Thank you for the replies, I will try that solution.

I was wondering if anyone knows the fix for an inoperative driver side master window switch. This is on a 2000 XJ. The switch works every now and then, and sometimes when I flip it the automatic roll up/down feature activates. It often will continue to roll up or down causing the teeth to grind...

This is a 2000 Jeep Cherokee with the straight 6. Had the passenger side fender, bumper, and grill replaced after a fender bender and now the cruise control doesn't function properly. When you let go of the button to set your speed the rpms slowly drop instead of the sharp rise and then...

It's a 2000, so no Renix for me I believe. Also, I always check for leaks after an oil change and just about everyday. I also always make sure the gauges are reading okay right after I change the oil. It was not until ~2000 miles into the change that my pressure started dropping. I'm getting...

My previous oil change I had lost the paper that I wrote down what the filter number is for the filter I use. (Pure One) When I went to Advanced Auto and asked the girl (who was incredibly high) to look it up, she mistakenly chose the 2.5 4 cyl option. (I would not have even known if the...

Thanks for the replies. I'll post back once I can get some numbers, I added some STP to the oil in the meantime for the sake of it. Edit: Oil viscosity is 10W-30, filter brand is Purolator.

This is a 2000 XJ 4.0 I6 ~106,xxx miles on it. The last 2 weeks my oil pressure has been dropping once the temperature reads ~210 degrees. It will run at about 20-30 psi in top gear when cruising and drop down to almost zero at idle. I also notice more heat coming through the instrument...

The only slip additive my local Advanced Auto had was the kind for Transmissions, is that what I'm looking for?

Just ordered a Lube locker, I'll change the fluid once it comes in. This is a heck of alot simpler than I thought, thanks guys.

I just got back from a 2 week vacation and noticed a small stain directly under my rear differential, so I took some pictures. Should I be concerned? Edit: Sorry for the enormous size.

Thanks for the replies guys, I'll do a check of all these things tomorow morning.

I went off-roading last week and experienced a pretty hard bump. This thursday my front suspension started vibrating at speeds higher than 55 mph. Today it got far worse, it shakes so violently that I'm afraid I'm going to run off the road. It matches this 2003 repair bulletin...

Sorry about the repost. My browser locked up and it must have done multiple posts when I hit refresh.

I noticed about a week ago that my 2000 XJ was making a high pitched whistling noise in the mornings on my way to school, and at night from my way back from work. I only notice it when it's cold outside and at first it seemed to be related to whether or not I was running the heat. Tonight I...
