Apart from owning a VT Commodore in one of my less clever moments I managed to purchase a JEEP, Junk Each And Every Part, so I have been told. It appears they are reknown for heating faults not good on a hot day when the needle goes a bit over 3/4 of the way and when you stop and turn off the engine the cooling system empties itself onto the road way or where ever you happen to stop. Now I am pretty patient most of the time but this is starting to become annoying due to the amount of anti freeze I have bought and is starting to become a bit expensive not to say bad for the enviroment.

Apart from completely removing everything off the engine and replacing the radiator, Water pump Themostat and any thing else remotely attached to the cooling system I would like someone else's advice on this as there must be more people who have had a simular problem in the past and sorted out the fault, I just don't want to just throw parts at it until come next summer it is the same again.

The other nasty with this car is when you select 4x4 it only shows up as part time 4x4 even in low 4x4 I have been told it might just be the selector switch sticking and even though it isn't showing the correct gear on the dash it is actually in the selected gear.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this

You'd wanna try moving to the correct posting group wayno, I keep missing your posts in here.
Sounds like you brought a great car....To think, I almost made that choice.
With out seing the car, mate, I'd have trouble.
Firstly, tho, don't spend too much money on the anti-freeze unless you live near the snow.
The reason why this coolant is so expensive is because it's designed, as the tittle states, not to freeze in below 0C temps. There is an increased percentage of ethlene glycol to compensate for the harshness of the anti-freeze chemicals.
All you need is a good quality coolant with a good anti alloy corrosion rating.
Secondly, if the leak is still present, or your not happy with the repair, just run water for a few days. It works just as well.
Other than that I am not fimiliar with Jeep or Chrysler at all.
I just hope you've got a good mechanic that's had nothing to do with the causes of some of your troubles.
With the transfer selector fault I'd recommend an auto electrican. Ther're clever with that sort of stuff and usually find problems quickly. Yes, it does sound like a switch fault...

Ok the bad thing about this i worked on jeeps for some reason. The cooling sytem cause is a air lock in the sytem. The fix blead sytem with a bleading device by from most auto parts supplies.

With the transmisson it will slect low range as you move forward some times it can take up 100 m or more to do so even to take out does the same as well.
Next thing the diff pioon gears are not srong sugest a diff upgrade if not already done.
