    Upshift light coming on in an automatic

    I bought an 02 Sahara 4.0 automatic. When driving the upshift indicator (yellow up arrow) on the dash comes on when it’s shifting gears… when I get to I guess the last gear around 40mph the arrow comes on and off and on and off a few times over a few seconds and it feels like the jeep is trying...

    Florida Mechanic in Miami Needed!

    Hey everyone! I need a mechanic in the South Florida area for my 06 Rubicon. I used Planet 4x4 before and was dissatisfied. I'm looking for a shop that can diagnose the shifting problems - the jeep is an automatic, but inconsistently refuses to shift from 2nd to 3rd) - as well as a mystery...

I have a 03 Wrangler 4.0 and recently I’ve noticed that when engine breaking, primarily in 2nd gear, and slightly in 3rd gear, a metal rattling noise can be heard until the jeeps rpms catch up to speed. It...

    First off, I think I've read everything available online about 42RLE shifting issues, PCM problems, Wranglerfix fixes, etc. Unfortunately I haven't seen anything similar to the issue I've been experiencing, which brought me to become a member of this great forum (long-time lurker). My '06 LJ...

It feels and sounds metallic, almost like when you lift off the latch of a yard gate and the latch is worn and gets bound and...

    Early / Erratic Shifting

    2005 SE Auto 4.0L 65k I was driving earlier and when my car shifted something felt off. It felt like it was erratic and like it was shifting too early. It seemed like there was a loss of power and while I do have 4.88s on 35s, I’ve never felt it shift like this before. I had someone who was in...

    42RLE transmission issue shifting from 2nd to 3rd

    2004 Sahara 4.0l 42RLE Auto 199k miles From gear shift 2 to 3 The rig acts like it can not decide to shift or not and lurches in power over and over again until something catches. I have a 2.5 in suspension lift with no SYE installed. Is this a sign of the tranny going bad or something else?
