Subject : 96 Cherokee 2.5TD won't Start Hi....After a long period of non-use I started the 1996 Cherokee 2.5TD, drove it down the yard to wash it. After a few minutes of running it stuttered and quit. Since then I have been unable to start it. It turns over OK and jumping doesn't work, hence battery not the problem. Ther is Diesel at the Diesel Filter and air has been bled out. Can anyone help? Padraig Ireland - Mon 31st May 2010 11:01am (GMT)

Subject : Cherokee steering wanders Hi, Just had MOT, which included new outer CV Joints (just purchased the car) on driving it seems to be vague on steering. Tyre pressures all ok, tyres wearing evenly checked underneath no apparent play in steering, hardly any free play. Notice it does self centralise after turning corners. Any suggestions? roger Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, UK - Tue 06th April 2010 10:16pm (GMT)

Subject : Grand Cherokee 3.1D Auto not changing gear Hi, my Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.1D Auto wont change up though the gear box sometimes and will all of a sudden change down. Does anyone know what will cause this. Cheers, Michaela Michaela Southampton, UK - Wed 24th March 2010 07:08pm (GMT)

Subject : XJ 2.5 TD cuts out hi, My 2.5TD 1998 XJ has developed a strange fault. Whne driving along and slowing for a roundabout / junction, it will sometimes cut out. Switch off / on then wait for the lights to go and she starts and runs ok. This may happen once aday, several times or never, it's completely random. I'm hoping someone here wil have an idea of where to look for the gremlin as it's extremely frustrating, not knowing when this will occur again. Cheers, Cal.

Subject : Re : XJ 2.5 TD cuts out Hi Cal, I have a 2001 XJ 2.5TD and it does exactly the same, usually when decelerating on the motorway which scared the cr*p out of me when it first happened. have you found any reason why it happens? Cheers Pete Pete Dicaprio Havant, Hampshire, UK - Fri 14th May 2010 05:49pm (GMT) Subject : Re : Re : XJ 2.5 TD cuts out Hi Pete, Yes I have got it fixed. It was the "fuel quantity Actuator" in the Injector pump. Not cheap!!!! circa £700.00!! Contact these guys, they did mine and it is first class now. http://www.powerdrivediesels.com/index.html The cost is wirth it if you intend keeping your XJ, you may get a cheaper pump on;line, but then it needs checking and fittingso may not be all that much cheaqper in the long run, at least this wat it's done and tested.

Subject : Jeep Chrokee Fob Hi we have a L REG 1993/4 limited 4.00 its been sat in the corner since my wife holed the petrol tank. Since then the battery went flat on the jeep, I charged it up and since then the fob wont work, can we cant start the jeep using the key. our local jeep dealer is long gone, I can get a replacement fob but i have been told it's got to go to a dealer with the vehicle to be paired, so i will have to trailer the jeep to southampton to get this done. surely there must be another easier way. cheers KEV kevin walker Basingstoke, Hants, UK - Tue 24th March 2009 10:33pm (GMT)
