I understand that this is a fairly old problem people have had with their OPDA's but I have not found any discussions or threads online where people are experiencing the same problem as I am. I own an 06 TJ, for the past few months the engine light has been on, when I looked up the code the most popular problem was with the OPDA. Ordered a new one, put it in exactly as directed from the videos, and within a few minutes of test driving the light came back on and the problem was worse than before. With the old OPDA the motor was in limp mode and would not go above 3200 rpm. With the new one installed I couldn't keep the vehicle on without it violently sputtering. Not knowing what to do, I pulled the new one and sure enough the gear had already shown signs of wear. The part looked broken. So I put the old one back in and it went back to just not being able to go above 3200 rpm. Thinking it was a faulty part I contacted the seller and had a replacement sent. New one got here today and again I did everything exactly as the video said. When I went to test drive it did fine for a few minutes and then I lost all oil pressure and it started violently sputtering once again. This time however the engine light did NOT come back on. I shut the vehicle off immediately and towed it back to my driveway with my other jeep. Now I'm not sure what to do. Any feedback and opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
