dealer told me last year that the scan report requested by Chrysler already sent to them in Oct and feedback was no fix in the horizon. Called Jeep 1300 today, was told that they still await the report and I should go back to the dealer. Welcome Chrysler's "soccer game"......

I've been having a blast driving the GC over the school holidays, any excuse I can think of to get in it and take it somewhere. I really hope it doesn't have any issues, because so far its been great!

G'day All, my first post. I own along with the bank a Grand Cherokee Overland build date the sticker saids May 2014. It's got a few issues which I hope to have resolved this coming service 20,000k.

I hope by joining here to learn from your experiences and become a little more educated in the life of a Jeep owner.

I live in Western Sydney

One question I pose to the group, does anyone have a lead, details of who I can contact about the date this car came off the assembly line, the ship it sailed on as well as date and the dealer it was delivered too in Australia from the USA side?

I look forward to our future interactions.

Have a great day.

Regards

No, that is simply called a MY15 Summit with Jeep Aus Marketing applied, all the "extras" are simply standard upgrades that MY15 got.
 
#12,829 ·
Just back from the dealer who did the P64 Recall update. They also did the 14-087 Reprogram HVAC, 14-089 RG3 RG4 RJ3 RJ4 Radio update and the RRT 14-104 reprogram PCM.

I haven't had any DPF or other issues thus far so hopefully this means I won't.

My firmware is now 14.25.5. I thought I might have seen a DAB button but it's FM and MW only. Shouldn't I see AM instead of MW? I thought that's what I had before or is my recollection faulty? I didn't really take that much notice.

MUST the dealer put the recalls on the invoice ?
I asked to have the several recalls done on my SRT (specifically the ACC and sunvisor ones) but all I got on the invoice was the service.

I got an invoice yesterday showing the recall and other updates. Shouldn't make a difference if they are done at time of service. Most owners I'm sure want to have a full history of everything done to their vehicle. Can't see why they can't give you something.

SOS!!!!

Has anyone experienced or known that gear downshifts and "locked in" on uphill regardless how hard gas pedal is pressed (rpm goes up like crazy) ? The same happens on flat road when hard accelerate for overtaking. This occurred after the dealer applied TSB transmission flash 4 month ago. The flash cant be rolled back. The dealer tried adaptive re-learn to no avail.

Didnt have the problem before TCM flash as gear upshifted responsively to gas pedal whether overtake or uphill. Since flash, E.G, travel 90kph at 8th gear on motorway, gear downshift and locked to 7th at the moment when press gas pedal (far from flooring) within speed limit of 110 to overtake, rpm is up and engine struggles at 7th gear; have to ease gas pedal to bring gear back to 8th. It's worse on uphill. This is not normal.

Normally, rpm is around1.5. When gear downshift and locked, to maintain the same speed before downshift, rpm goes up between 3-4.

So are you saying that driving along at 90kph in 8th is around 1500rpm.
When you want to overtake (gently accelerating) it kicks down to 7th and does 3000 or 4000 ??? If so, that's a serious torque converter problem.:eek:


What it should do with a gentle push is kickdown to 7th, revs step up to about 1950rpm,
Then accelerate up to 110kph still in 7th which is about 2300rpm.
Lifting off the pedal it will change to 8th revs drop back down to 1800rpm and do 110kph.

Doing 90kph in 8th, if you pushed down more it might quickly change to 6th (2300rpm) and then accelerate a bit faster to 110kph in 6th (2750rpm) overtake and then when lifting off the pedal it would go to 7th then 8th and revs come down.

If you absolutely stomped on the pedal it might change from 8th straight down to 5th (3000rpm) or even if it goes to 4th (4000rpm).
I'm sure you could do that. there's no point in diesel engine because it's working at its best at around 1800-2600 rpm.

Going uphill there is more load on the engine so it is more likely to drop to 6th or even to 5th depending on how steep or how hard you push.
There are a lot of cogs in the gearbox so yes it is likely to change down 2 gears or more if pushed harder.


Have you tried using the shift paddles so it only drops 1 gear when you tell it?




BTW ratios for the 8speed and speed at 1500rpm (obtained from ZF website) speeds are calculated estimate.
1st ---- 4.714 ---- 13 kph
2nd ---- 3.143 ---- 19 kph
3rd ---- 2.106 ---- 28 kph
4th ---- 1.687 ---- 36 kph
5th ---- 1.285 ---- 47kph
6th ---- 1.000 ---- 60kph - nice for urban roads
7th ---- 0.839 ---- 72kph
8th ---- 0.667 ---- 90kph - nice for flowing M4, 110kph is about 1800rpm

Well mine tends to downshift and stay there if I push the pedal moderately hard (ie 50% down). Then when I lift off it shifts back up, so it sounds pretty normal to me. Obviously it does this more aggressively under Sport and eco off.

Just went for a quick drive to get dinner, at 60kph I'm in 6th at 1500rpm in eco mode. Going up hill and pushing the pedal down 50% the trans shifts back to 4th and 2200rpm, it will hold 4th through 3500rpm, at which stage I back off the accelerator because I'm going too fast, and it shifts back up to 5th and then 6th.

That all sounds normal to me. What doesn't sound right is if you are doing 110kph in 8th and it shifts back to 7 and goes to 3-4k rpm.

Normally, engine and gear works hand in hand to maintain a set speed at optimal fuel consumption. rpm goes up to 3-4 is normal because engine, under pressure from gas pedal, is overworking to maintain speed at lower gear level, and fuel consumption increase as result. Once gear unlocked from 7 and jumps back to 8, i don't need to push gas pedal any harder to maintain the same speed and rpm drops back to around 1.5 as a result.

Gear downshift and lockin happens too when using adaptive cruise control. Owners who have ACC know that when you signal right lane change, ACC momentally increases speed evidenced by rpm spikes for overtaking. With mine, at the moment rpm spikes, gear downshift to and lockin at 7, speed does not increase momentarily due to low gear which unsettles me as, on a number of occassions, i can see car (from rear view mirror) right behind my ass. The whole driving experience on uphill and overtaking is wishy washy, lack of confidence.

On flat road: very gentle graduate acceleration does not result in gear downshift. Gear downshift, lockin occurs when taking quick acceleration for overtaking.

On hill: gear downshift and lockin occurs as soon as it starts climbing even on small grade despite hitting gas pedal trying to maintain or increase speed.

Before TCM flash, i hit gas pedal on uphill or for overtaking, the gear either held or increased depending on speed, but it NEVER downshift, engine literally roared in response to gas pedal with increase in rpm. For example, I travel on Mt Ousley Rd often from Wollongong to Sydney. For those who know the Rd know it's moderately steep climbing and speed limit is 80kph. Before TCM update, i could easily hit gas pedal, keep at 8th gear with speed at 80kph. But now, as soon as start climbing, gear drops to 6, and speed can not reach 80kph despite i hit gas pedal pretty hard, and rpm nearly at 4. I end up driving at 50kph+ on truck lane.

Before TCM flash, gear changed to 4th at 40kph, 5th at 50kph so on and so forth. After the flash, if very gentle increase in speed, gear changes to 4th at 30kph.........8th at 70kph, but if a tad hard increase in speed, e.g, merge to motorway, gear change to 4th at 40kph.......7th at 70kph and 8th at 95kph.

This still doesn't make any sense to me. You are doing 80kph in 8th, that would be about 1200rpm I would guess. If you want to accelerate at that speed the gearbox should be changing down, you don't want to accelerate at 1200rpm. Ideally it should drop back to 6th @2000rpm and allow you to accelerate. With 50% throttle it should hold 6th and accelerate up to 3500rpm at least before changing up. You should be doing around 80kph by then.

The car definitely shouldn't be doing 50kph in 6th gear at 4000rpm. As I said earlier, I was in 6th doing 60 kph at 1500rpm. So if your car is in 6th gear revving at 4000 and doing just 50kph you've got a gearbox issue and need to take it in for service.

I had a Trans flash update on my 2013 GC, I haven't noticed any difference, but I am finding the up shifting from 1st to 2nd is not very smooth, rest of the gears are not too bad, I originally thought that the intro of the new 8 speed that the gear changes would be silky smooth.
Question, has any one else noticed this rough upshifting?
Otherwise very happy with my GC.

I've had some roughness/jerkiness when the car is cold. In car parks it can also be noticeable. But not bad enough that it concerns me. It seems to be something that can get worse as the trans 'learns'. Then a reset seems to make it better again temporarily, then it gets worse again as it learns again.

I've only clocked up about 4700k with only 35% of the distance in urban driving. Maybe not long enough to incorrectly learn bad habits.

I think the trans is quite clever with the downshifts under load and with engine braking downhill but it can still be fooled.

I've got an unusual downhill stop sign near my son's school. When taking off and just rolling away from the stop sign with a normal light accelerator the gearbox likes to stay in 1st gear. I have to give it more of a prod with the pedal to go to 2nd or I manually change up then hold the right paddle to go back to auto mode.

We'll see if it gets more jerky as the learning logic makes it worse.
I would like that ECO (off) preference though , so we'll wait of the diesel version of that TSB comes out.

Have been googling (link below) on gear downshift problem I have (see my previous post). It seems that downshift on acceleration is normal. I understand that downshift = rpm increase=more power=speed. The question is why my rpm shoots up but not speed.

What does kickdown mean in an automatic transmission? - Ask.cars.com
Do you have some specifics or a video of the problem. As we've already been through, IF you are in 7th gear doing 4000rpm and stuck at 80kph, then something IS slipping.

You need to confirm what gear, what speed, what revs.

You can also try using the paddles and see if changing gear manually makes any difference to building speed.

Has anyone used Cole Comprehensive car insurance for your JGC, and claim experience?

Ive been a patron with NRMA since dinosaur era. Saw on TV about how much Cole Insurance can save, so i gave it go online using exact same data as I have with NRMA. Guess what, the online quote is $500+ cheaper than what I paid to NRMA.

The insurance company behind Cole and NRMA is the same, yet so much difference in premium. Whats the catch?
