Another newbie here.
We purchased a 06 Unlimited Rubicon in October of 2018. The vehicle only had 62,000 miles and was in very nice condition. Or so I thought.
The owner told us "This Jeep is in perfect condition and doesn't need a thing, no oil leaks, blah, blah, blah."
It drove okay and seemed to be everything he said. I had been looking for a TJ and specifically targeted the Unlimited because of the longer wheelbase.
My preference was an automatic and hoped to find one in Yellow. So this checked all the boxes for me. And the wife liked it as well......win, win!
When I met him at the Credit Union a couple of days later, he handed me a cheap code reader and said, " I Thought I would give this to you in case the Check Engine Light ever comes on." I did not think much about it at the time. But the very next day, it was at the forefront of my thoughts. The blasted CEL lit up like a bad omen.
Biscuits and Gravy.....now what???
To be continued......
