    3.6 Pentastar purge valve/misfire issues

    Not at idle - there is a rattle noise at low RPM I can hear with the windows down/music off so Im suspecting that's probably a failed rocker. Found a few other videos of the same noise and that's what it was.

    Replace the intake cam for that bank and all rockers/followers on it.

    Carpathian gray right? Absolutely beautiful color. Love those rims too.

    3.6 Pentastar purge valve/misfire issues

    Update: Moved it around a couple times this weekend, no issues, sounds and drives normal. Drove it to my usual shop yesterday (30 miles) and drove completely normal. Hot ambient temps and long drives seem to start the issue.

    3.6 Pentastar purge valve/misfire issues

    Interesting issue on my 18 JLU with the PUG 3.6. Took it on a long road trip from WI to UT. Made it through the mountains in CO, to Moab for wheeling, then out to sand hollow to play in the dunes. No issues. The issues started after going to the hotel in St. George, UT. Went to the hotel...

    JLU Wrangler tire options

    I think I probably have 15-20k on the ones on the LR3, they are still great. They look nearly new - usually 20-30k on it is enough to wear tires out considering the weight of it (just under 6k pounds). One of my fav ATs for sure. I'd agree with everything Astro has said about them. Those and the...

    It does, having 2 overdrive gears with the granny low first is awesome. Nice. 3.6?

    JLU Wrangler tire options

    Since my 35s are only 52 pounds, I still see 8th gear on the highway and can chirp the tires from a stop. Get about 17-19MPG average. A regear would be nice but still drives fine. I have the Nokians on my LR3 and love them.

    JLU Wrangler tire options

    I love Toyos/Nittos. Get the lightest one you can in your size. My 35" Nitto Recons weigh about the same the stock 33" BFGs on a Rubicon. Heavy tires kill drivability. No need for LT tires on a Wrangler. Never had an issue on rocks or off road with punctures either.

    Anyone have a current-generation Land Rover Defender?

    For sure. The GAP IID tool really opens that up. And there's good parts availability outside of the dealers. There's a lot of passion in the community. The ones that lease them and dump them after 2 years aren't even really online, it's all the true enthusiasts.

    2020 Tundra needs new front differential

    Not a bad price. My only concern would've been them wanting to weasel out of anything due to the modifications I've made to it.

    2020 Tundra needs new front differential

    I don't think an extended warranty would've paid off on anything in my signature. and I use the off roaders hard. My experience has been that the 50-100k segment has been less work than the 0-50k segment. Even in the 100-120k zone I'm not sure if it would've paid off on anything. Now if there...

    Automotive Fluids You'd Never Use

    Agree with those, also add universal coolant. Always get the OEM spec. Never mix.

    Beautiful LR! Can't wait to see more pics.

    Anyone have a current-generation Land Rover Defender?

    Even back in the LR3 era, it was super debatable if the rear locker actually added any capability given how excellent the traction control is. Might get you going a little better on certain rocky obstacles but it's not like it'll take it anywhere a normal one couldn't go. Maybe I missed them...
