Am I the only one here who is being childish? What in the world has happened to OSA!!!!
Ha!
I'm being childish too.

I read the thread title and thought maybe he was getting his freak on!!!!!
NV247 x-fer case, I know my other one w/ the 249 has chain but not sure about this one; I was also thinking maybe it could the the x-fer case though since it is full-time 4wd.
Brakes are cheap. Way cheaper! Pay the $100 bucks every couple of years or do it yourself for less. I wouldn't be fooling with the button were it me, but I just drive and try to not to fiddle with stuff.
Bummer on what sounds like a cool car. Best o' luck to ya on repairations-
I do my own brakes; I just let off the gas or sometime use the OD-off button to lose speed "tactfully". Benn doing it a long time and never a problem; this is either my fault OR something malfunctioned. Thx for the good wishes.
A very good post that I will refer back to and report back wen I can; I can get the codes but no CE light; would the TCM store codes anyway? Tranny had newer fluid & filters supposedly when I bought the Jeep, fluid was new & clean on the dip stick and the previous owner even gave me some Mopar x-fer case fluid as well that he had left over from changing that fluid. Tranny has shifted like a dream for a year so i do not expect there was any previous issue.
nahh, fluid was good, I put on a cooler in sequence with the factory internal cooler on all my vehicles if necessary. I do not suspect heat but I know exactly what you mean because I have lost a tranny to heat a long time ago that had no aux cooler.
only for Sheen & Jenner (and people in California)
Way to kill a tranny. Saved on those 16 dollar brake pads though.
I'd kill a tranny too if it took a dump on me.
I expected a Charlie Sheen and Bruce Jenner joke. Disappointing.
Oh, don't down shift an auto in non-emergency situations, that will kill a transmission, if you want to shift gears, get a manual transmission.

The CEL is usually associated with some sort of emissions-related failure, so a transmission problem may not trip it.
Not on a modern slushbox it won't. On a Jeep, I have no idea, but in my truck and car, I can tell the transmission to downshift as often as I want and it won't hurt anything.
I down shift my ****** Tacoma automatic daily. 220K miles on it. Still works just like it did the day I bought it. Shittily. I already got my money's worth.
Fawker can't pick the right gear or stay in one anytime hills or curves or headwinds are involved. Even worse since I run oversized tires without a regear. At least it's durable. They rarely fail in 2 gen Tacomas. I also tow over capacity and wheel it harder than it should be wheeled. Fawk it. Beat, put away wet.
Manually shifting an automatic may increase wear, but it's negligible if you're not doing it like a fawktard. Jamming it into first from 20 mph, etc. Or 2nd at 70mph. There's all kinds of reasons where manually shifting an auto is prudent. Slick roads being one. Stupid transmission being another.
