check engine light

[innerreflection]

Well definitely one of the lamest days of pretty much the whole year. 2 days ago i noticed between 5mpg-0 my truck is starting to kinda chug along like a train or rather a freakin tractor.

i said screw it i need to get to work, all seemed ok and i figured it was something related to the k&n. yesterday morning BAM there goes that lovely check engine light.

looked up the code and found out its a cylinder 7 missfire.

of course my dealer lynch is booked solid. and the one i cant stand going to is free so i had to book it at 7:30am


any ideas how long it would take them to fix this about?
also i have close to 30,000 miles so im sure it should be covered under warranty. unless i think its just spark plugs.


THIS SUX because thursaday my moms jeep has recall so i have to take that and then im gonna finally finish my system install. friday i have this shit,my gym and leaving for vacation so im not sure ill be able to do it all.

Well it could be anything from the distrubutor to the spark plugs. If its under warrenty let the dealer fix it.

Figure the day to fix it. If you're over 23, I think you can get a courtesy car, unless it's under your parent's name, and then they could get the car for you. It's not worth planning around your car, because if it takes an hour too long, you get your sched all jacked up.

Coil pack. IMO

ya ill see on friday and ya actually im 23

[innerreflection]

ya it was definitely the spark plug and now runs like a champ

[TheBackRoads]

atleast it was an easy fix man! good to hear you got her running like new again

OK and once again i got the same check engine light
the error codes were 307 and 513
the exact same errors as before which im pretty sure is a cilinder missfire.
wtf is the problem? isnt there like a no lemon law or something after an amount of fixes

[blackattack182]

There's A lemon law after an amount of fixes. If it's been in the shop for more than thirty days or it's been in the shop for the same thing four times, it's eligible for Lemon Law consideration.

I'm not exactly sure on the details. Google it.

Do you have a JET chip or anything that could be fouling plugs?

[innerreflection]

nope
i have a k&n intake and the exhaust but its been fine for a while

not really sure what it is but i have an appointment at my dealer

[StealthJeep93]

take it back to he person who fixed it. it should be under warranty

[innerreflection]

DAMMIT the freakin light went away. should i still take it to the dealer?
