I know that some of these things have been mentioned before! This video is intended to be an updated version (with much better quality) for new subscribers. 👍
I just commented on your other altitude video and here I am again😁 Man thank you very much for this stuff, my touchscreen has been doing naughty things and I briefly looked under the hood the other day for the battery but couldn’t find it, but you came through with the location! I will do a hard reset. And the air mattress thing was also something I have thought/wondered about! Good to know that it’s doable for camping. You have helped me a bunch!
Good info, thanks
Didn't know about the front seat. Wow you just made my trips to home depot for wood trim alot easier. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
i thought of the exact same thing. but my power seats dont do that 😢
Just bought a 17' Grand Cherokee. Thanks for the tips!
The flipping upside down gas thing is a life changer ‘
My face when I tried to fill up and it was stopping after I just bought it: 😐😐
Will the gas pump stop when your tank is full while holding the pump upside down ?
@@nadrianbrown1760 yes it will
@@user-iy4qc2ws1q thanks.
I was like flip What upside down? The car?
Thanks so much! Your videos are so helpful 👍🏾
Thank you!
I m so glad I found you. Nope I ve never heard any of this stuff from anywhere before you. Super Helpful.
There is an adapter that you can put that allows you to use the gas can into the fuel tank that is right next to the spare tire
came to research cus i just bought a 2018 limited hemi and first full up was a headache 🤣 thought about returning it until you said do it upside down 😂 great vid im subscribing 🔥
10k Strong nice upload as always 🔥
Appreciate the love as always!!
I know I am late to the party on this vid but I just want to say thanks so much. You have packed so much info into one vid!
Congratulations on hitting 10,000 cheers 🍻
Thank you!!!
Congrats bro!! 10K 🍾
Appreciate it!!
Having an issue with the radio like you mentioned in your video. I have tried the soft and hard resets. I’ve seen online there is a 20 amp radio fuse near the battery but I can’t find it. Before I spend $800, I’d like to make sure that fuse isn’t blown. Any idea where that fuse is located?
I didn’t know about the flat folding seat, more room for the air mattress. 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
It's super versatile, I'll definitely miss it if I get rid of it lol
ℹ seriously appreciate You and Your information 👍🏼.
Thanks Bro, you Rock!
Appreciate it!
I have 2009 I'm having trouble to get it started just out of the blue it won't start ,is there a starter control module fuse problem or do you no of anything else it could be
one time i was tryna parallel park n those damn automatic brakes just made the loudest sound ever. Hate the automatic brakes lmaoo. Nice vid bro
Quick question! I recently bought a used 2013 jeep grand Cherokee and I have been struggling to find the grille inserts that fit my car (Apparently only 2014- works...) Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to black out my grille without buying a custom $400 grille from a shady website. Did they change the grille model after the 2013?? Appreciate your videos man!
You should be able to find some for that model year on amazon, if not you can always just spray them with plastidip!
Hi, random but I am actually considering buying a 2013 Jeep Cherokee Overland. Can you share your experience so far now that you've had it a year? Pros, Cons etc..... thanks!!!
What did you use to black out your interior accent panels, did you use matte black wrap?
The front passenger seat folding feature has a name its called a 'fold flat front passenger seat'. However if your front passenger seat is power- it won't do that! I wanna get the manual front passenger seat so I can have that!
Yeah, my SRT doesn't do it anymore :(
Please discuss ideas to stop carjacking--like kill switches, or Onstar trackers, remote shut-off fobes... thanks
Ive been thinking about that stuff a lot with those fobs.
Loved the seat recline option entirely..
you mentioned the tazer. Is there any significant difference between the tazer and AlfaOBD? Did you make a video about the tazer? tx
Yeah! I have several videos on the tazer you should be able to search for them. AlfaOBD is only going to allow you to enable permanent settings where the tazer is integrated into your dash for live settings like the lightshows etc
Good times right there!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Congratulations 🎊🎉
Thank you!!
I see that you have 10k subscribers, Congratulations 👏
Thank you!!
Congratulations on the 24k subscribers! I'm in the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee, I was wondering what that button was on the dash that looks like a steering wheel. Are there certain trims you recommend over others? I'm definitely getting a V8 hemi, but just wondering about options. I'll be getting a used Jeep, possibly leaving the Durango family (Even though I notice alot of similarities.)
My main question is, is there a particular state or region that you know of that don't value Jeeps and Durangos so High, to find great deals? And when buying one, what are the key things I should look for while reviewing the vehicle to make sure it's worth getting it.
Appreciate the response in advance, hope your loving youtube like myself! Keep grinding and growing! (Pause)
Oklahoma JGC are cheap! I've got a 2014 limited I 💗 it
At 60,000 miles and some of those miles are goin to Destin FL twice or it'd be in the 50's still. Ill never leave jeep family. I'm fxn to give it to my son and get me another 1.
Get the High Altitude, try to find one with the Harmon Kardon speakers, its bad ass! Has all the options and air ride , I have a 21. Had a 13 Overland, upgraded after going 183k on the Overland with min issues. All were covered under warranty except the oil filter/cooler housing that crack or leak. Now they make metal oil filter/cooler housings.thats what I did on my 13 before getting rid of it. Helped out next owner lol
how did you get your radio screen background to look like that? was that a preset option? all my options are ugly and each one looks almost exactly like the one before it. hardly a customizing option. i have a 2017 limited.
It's one of the theme options, maybe it's only in the 2018?
I have a 17 also and you're right most of the options are kind of meh. It would be cool if there would be some way to download backgrounds.
My daughter actually found the pop out flash light in the back.lol
good meeting you the other night at Lincoln Mall.
You too! 🤙
What does it mean if you go to disable your park sense but it turns it back on automatically right away?
Great info, thanks
Also if you don't tighten down the gas cap it causes a check engine code to be registered. it's a false alarm. once tightened the check engine light goes away after 3 or 4 starts
Where'd you get those camo kicks? Me digging!!
They're Bape Ultra Boosts!
@@BJPLIFESTYLE Thanks bro!
Ok this might sound silly, But I just got a 2019 Cherokee and I was wondering if there is an option on the instrument display to visibly show MILES to EMPTY in a count down form... Thanks!!!
And is it 3,000 mi or 5,000 mi for an oil change lol.... also laughing at my youtube @ forgot my friend did that =P
How do I protect my jeep when leaving it in the florida for the summer months.
You can also put a full size bed in the back in the normal Cherokee too
All my lower dash lights stopped working. The yellow lights work. But the blue back lightening under the screen are off???? I have a trailhawk with every option??
is there storage under the driver seat
What year model is it?
sick tats
Do you know how to reset the tire sensor system
Ever had the uconnect issue where your GPS tells you you are way off from your current location? Compass is also off.
Yeah, mine says I’m in the middle of the ocean all the time 😅
@@BJPLIFESTYLE have you found a fix? Dealer says the whole unit needs to be replaced... haha what the heck!!!
Wher do I get the tazer
Congratulations on 10k you deserve it
Thank you so much!!
What type of gas do they use I have a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited
Limited should just be regular octane gas 🤙🏻
Hey how hard is it to install pre cut window tint on the front 2 windows on a Jeep Grand Cherokee? Whats the best kind for the money and where should I order from? Any information would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
Not sure! I always recommend going to a professional for tint, it will last longer & won't ruin anything!
Won't the traction control turn off if you switch to the multi different 4x4 modes ?
Some models are 4x4 without the selector switch and you can't turn it off unless you pull the fuse
I just got a Jeep it’s a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee altitude the auto park turn on right when I turn on my truck not sure if I pressed something but idk how to turn it off or on if you can help !!!
I have a video showing a way to disable that!
I paid 20 bucks for the bypass and I no longer have to start stop best 20 bucks I ever spent
Please share.
What do you flip upside down to fuel the jeep the nozzle of the gas pump?
9:56
I thought that was an anti skid button for when it rains or icy. Where's that at? Mine has said service shifter since I got it so I can't even scroll through to see anything. I hear water sloshing around so I've got to check my sunroof ducts. I've never had a jeep. I guess there is much they assume you are born knowing.no owners manual. Scares I made a mistake
Any chance you want to make a video on the roof rack situation? I want to mount Thule bars but I’m lost
hey good video. how about how can I manually fold in the outside mirrors if the vehicle is not equipped with the power folding option
Just push / pull them in! Super simple and not that much force
I had the same problem I just brought it back to Jeep and they stuck a new vent valve in for free never had a problem in the last two and a half years 👍🍺
I’m taking mine in in a couple days for some scheduled maintenance. I’ll make sure to mention that. It’s god awful annoying, and I look like a fool too!
Thanks for information I just brought one
I bought I used 2011 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo, my car when you park removed the key and sat there for a minutes, made noise in the area of the radio and back to the car like someone is moving stuff or have a critter in the air conditioning. What can be I need answer. Look like ghost cristine car
It could just be the air system vents closing, most of of the Jeeps / Dodge do that
I love my jeep
So is my jeep not 4x4 if I don’t have the knob that turns from snow sand and mud I have an overland but not the knob just wondering new to the jeep scene
If you don’t have the knob it’s not true 4wd it’s more of an active AWD system since you can’t change between 2/4
@@BJPLIFESTYLE OK because I didn’t know it’s a 2015 and it is pretty much fully loaded but I noticed it didn’t have that
OK I commented before I had watched the whole video. I did not know about the passenger seat folding flat like that, yes that would create a lot of room for stuff behind the passenger seat. yeah I’m a little high right now but I’m learning a lot about my car. I’m glad I don’t have to turn the gas nozzle upside down, that hasn’t been a problem. My biggest issue is the huge A pillars in the frame. it’s part of what makes it look cool from the outside, but man it’s a big sight obstruction when you’re driving. I find myself bobbing and weaving my head and shoulders to make sure no kids are walking across the street or something before I take off. People probably think I have some kind of physical handicap with me moving like that
Another thing you want to be careful about is the auto braking if the roads are icy.
It depends on the joint of the hose at the handle for me on the gas snafu.
Weird! I've only been able to fix it by flipping upside down, nothing else works on mine
@@BJPLIFESTYLE
Twist the hose next time.
What year is this 2015?
I didnt see a link for the taser
Pull the fuse on the dark screen situation instead of jacking around with disconnecting the battery
Good tip!
I turn my sideways to pump bc if I don’t then it keeping on clicking off. Now my radio is going haywire. It keeps changing stations with me physically changing
THE RADIO HAPPENED TO ME TOO! 2019 altitude.. did that for a month or two, now my stop/start feature SPAZZED & sometimes it just randomly won’t start 😑
The radios on these things are such a piece of junk. Something malfunctions on mine virtually every day.
Any idea on how to remove/off the rear passenger reminder when vehicle is stopped? Have videos for all other vehicles except Jeep latest versions. Any help is appreciated
Anyone know why my car play stopped working ?
My Toyota Matrix passenger front seat dropped like my jeep too
That's interesting! I've never seen it do that before lol
walking by my 2021 80th anniversary I brushed the door handle and unlocked the doors. I didn't get in and a minute or so later the doors locked on their own, cool.
If I disconnect the stop/start battery manually (the system is spazzing), will that also disable the ability to remote start ???
You can still remote start with the sensor h plugged on the secondary battery
@@BJPLIFESTYLE didn’t solve my problem :(
2wks ago was stopped at red light, and it stalled when I went to go (ironically, stop/start was NOT in use, but the function was still turned on from inside car).
Wouldn’t turn back on 5-6x, then turned on & the stop/start! Light was on. Ok fine.
Next time I turned car on, light was gone, started up fine…
And over the past 10 days it usually started, but would occasionally give me a hard time n not start. Hence, I unplugged the stop/start battery yest, hoping if that aux battery is the issue, then my truck would start fine (‘19 altitude)…. Well… started fine 10x, and then NADA. no clicking, turning engine does nada (same like always).
Wouldn’t start ALL afternoon yest, then started fine 2x in eve. This am NADA.
ANY clue wtf is going on here?! LOL
Love u thank u in advance ;)
I believe the ones with the automatic seats don't fold flat
Yeah another W for the lower trim models!
@@BJPLIFESTYLE honestly pretty dope!!! It would help with carrying larger items!!!
Fit an 80 inch door in mine!!! 👍👍
What year is this?
2018!
Yes I have camped and slept in my jeep 🚙
Recommending disabling ABS or even just TC is irresponsible. Most people no longer have the capability to react to what there vehicle is doing in order to manually correct. Even off road it should only rarely be deacivated.
😂😂😂
What year is your jeep?
Thank you. Grandma will need to sleep in my car for work a few times each week during summer months. Do you recommend any DIY plans to convert my 2019 Jeep grand Cherokee Limited addition
Flip what upside down?
The gas fill up nozzle ⛽️
my mom litteraly just got one and yo she has paddle shifters with hers and yoooooooooooo im dying i just wanna put it in sport and goo lol but she wont let me yet.....................................................................................
lollll
🤣🤣
It's FUN!!!
I HATE HOW THERE'S NO CAP FOR THE FUEL FILLER.
I loved the idea of it when I bought it… until I learned absolutely all of the issues it has 🤣
Holy crap. 3 years and I didn’t know the seat folds.
Right?! I did it on accident and was shook lol
Is it only non power passenger seats?
Yes only on manual non power front passenger seats. I wanna get a leather jgc passenger non power seat so I can have that too!
Does everyone know about the flashlight in the back?
Only on some models!
Yes I have that on my 17 trailhawk but it's lame. It's really dim but I guess if you're in a dire situation it could help you at least find the Jack and your spare but you're better off with yr phone
too bad you cant install new screen
cuz it will cancel the original witch looks very important
Mines gets within inches and then the brakes activate. 2018 altitude.
The ones I test drove and my current one all were so far off the wall it was awful lol
"so yeah if you guys crash a lot "
All of the things mentioned in this video are basic knowledge unless youre geriatric and you just buy vehicles but don't keep up with technology or you just love throwing money at vehicles but dont know what youre actually buying. Especially if you got the 5.7L V8 like mine.
Chrysler blows, I regret buying from them
Always the same type of content that you're just recycling. You're definitely more of a quantity > quality type person.
Read the pinned comment, buddy.
@@BJPLIFESTYLE he legit said this is for new subscribers damn read
I would recommend to try and enunciate your words a little better, maybe just a little slower. Just my fair constructive criticism .
this is the laziest video I've seen. You can demo all these "hacks" yet you just sit there flappin your gums
Go make your own then bozo
Hey man,great video. How's the jeep holding up? Just got a 2019 jeep limited been seeing a lot of people having issues in some of jeep youtube video comments.
The altitude I had was great! The SRT I have now has some issues but still has been pretty decent to me!
Rolling Garbage
Flip what upside down?
The gas pump handle!
@@BJPLIFESTYLE thanks
