2000 Jeep Wrangler Turbo Diesel TDI
For sale is my 2000 Jeep Wrangler TDI diesel. I am selling the Jeep, as well as all my material, documentation, drawings, records, drafts, spare engine, and diagnostic VCDS system to support not only the pilot vehicle, but subsequent conversions with the TJ. You will own the physical and intellectual property at conclusion of sale.
This project represents a personal mission to integrate two dissimilar electronic control systems and networks into a functional powertrain, with the ultimate goal being a high-efficiency expedition-class 4x4. Many platforms were modeled along with six engine candidates. The Jeep Wrangler TJ and the Volkswagen BEW/BRM were chosen for the pilot unit, with the new 2.0 CJA "Clean Diesel" being slated for a second future Jeep. Approximately 3000 hours of research have gone into the project; the pilot Jeep represented approximately 500 hours of build time including field testing.
This has been an exciting and very challenging project, however I must pass it on due to health reasons that preclude my working on it any longer. This is a huge loss for me and I do not want to let it go, but reality trumps my dream in this case. Therefore, it departs.
2000 Jeep Wrangler SE with 139k original miles was purchased two years ago from the original owner. The Jeep was 100% bone-stock and had zero modifications other than an aftermarket class 2 trailer hitch. It was in very good original condition and provided an excellent base to create the pilot diesel Jeep.
2004.5 Volkswagen Golf TDI with 76k miles provided the donor engine, wiring, and powertrain controller. It was a salvage car with documented maintenance intervals per VW schedule using spec 505.01 synthetic oil and MANN filters.
AX-5 5-speed transmission with SPEC clutch and pressure plate. This setup has withstood all operational testing with zero failures or problems and has proven to be robust.
The finished Jeep has been modified for optimized expeditionary use, with secondary paved highway use. Among other items, it has as new:
- 3" lift using TeraFlex springs, Savvy control arms, Currie Anti-Rock sway system
- 33" Mud-Terrian type tires
- Dana 44 rear axle with Dana (Yukon) Powr-Lock limited slip differential 4.11
- Dana 30 front axle, open 4.11
- ARB "Tummy Tuck" low profile transfer case skid plate
- Slip yoke eliminator with Tom Woods propshafts
- Savvy aluminum bumpers and fuel tank skid
- BesTop frameless top, door curtains, and front seats
- OR-FAB swing-away tire carrier with ROTOPAX diesel fuel cells (4)
All support components, such as radiator, hoses, brake master cylinder/booster/pads/drums/shoes/stainless steel lines, wiper blades, ect are new. The Jeep drives great and has excellent torque both on and off-road. The idle stability of the electronically-controlled diesel is where it shines; the engine automatically adjusts the throttle-to-load at idle while you slowly crawl over obstacles. It just lugs away!
Overall, you can expect 25 miles per gallon average. Drive it hard and aggressively, which is easy and tempting, and it will get worse; keep it normal and sane it stays in the mid 20's.
I will be donating a portion of auction proceeds to a veteran's non-profit that has helped me and thousands of other vets cope with PTSD, brain injuries, and other debilitating diseases resulting from recent conflicts. The freedom this project gave me to explore a dream was made possible by hope from members of this organization. God Bless you guys.
I will reserve technical specifications such as network typology, design, and layout to the winning bidder since those should be kept proprietary. Any other questions are welcome. Additional build information can be view at http://www.wranglerforum.com/f5/my-d...tj-202985.html. There are a couple of youtube links in that article as well that show the Jeep running.
Thanks for looking.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
NHTSA upgrading Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango headliner fire probe
Wed, 15 Jan 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation into headliner fires experienced by a small number of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango owners has been upgraded to an engineering analysis, the step before the initiation of a recall. In August last year the investigation began with 146,000 Grand Cherokees from 2012 after three complaints were received, but a report on Edmunds says it has been expanded to include 593,299 vehicles covering the 2011-2013 model years for the Jeep and the Dodge Durango, which uses the same headliner assembly, because of possibly 52 incidents of fire.
In some of those incidents drivers have reported a burning odor, smoke or open flames that were contained to the headliner or migrated to another area of the passenger compartment. The culprit has apparently been found: NHTSA blaming an electrical short in the sun visor vanity light wiring, which is routed under the headliner and held in place by three screws. Chrysler began its own probe into the issue when it was first reported and is still looking into the situation while, "fully supporting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation."
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms - and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings - perhaps some impatience is to be expected. With so much exposure to a given vehicle, it's fair to say we tire of most cars and trucks far more quickly than the average consumer.
The alterations are handsome, if not subtle touches from the "If It Ain't Broke" school of design.
Which is why we're pleased to say "Oh, is it time for that already?" when it comes to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The current WK2 Grand Cherokee hit the market in 2011 and climbed its way into our hearts with its rugged good looks, go-anywhere capability and surprising refinement. We're not yet tired of its appearance or performance, but even so, we're very glad to see Chrysler giving its flagship Jeep some attention, including a much-anticipated diesel powertrain option and some other economy-minded measures.
