Hi there. From the description you have given, it is hard to say what style axle you have, 2wd, 4wd, front, rear? Assuming, it is the rear. There are several styles apparently available from Jeep. If, axle bearing is pressed onto the axle. Removing the (4) retainer plate bolts(nuts) should allow you to remove the axle, possibly with the help of a slide hammer. If, the axle bearing is pressed into the housing, the differential cover will have to be removed, pinion shaft removed, and axle c-clip removed to remove axle. It is important to know which style you have so, you don’t break something. I recommend having your vehicle’s axle problem be inspected and repaired by a certified technician from YourMechanic.
How to Identify and Fix Common car Problems ?

It`s a type of car problem that`s not hard to notice. 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee transmission problems could include shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood.
What is a P0700 Code? The P0700 code indicates that there`s a malfunction with your vehicle`s Transmission Control Module (TCM). This computer monitors your transmission and works with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and Engine Control Module (ECM) to shift gears when necessary.
Unplugging the TCM will eliminate the possibility of damaging the module during diagnosis and/or repair. The control module may be damaged when the metal case contacts battery voltage.
Turn off your vehicle`s ignition and wait patiently for 5 to 10 seconds. Start the engine and allow it to idle for several seconds. Switch off the ignition and wait patiently for another 30 to 40 seconds. Repeat these steps 2 to 3 times in order to reset your vehicle`s transmission control module.
Most reviews suggest that the 3.7L isn`t a bad engine. Many owners rave about its long-term reliability. It is prone to a few problems that you should be on the lookout for if you own or are considering a Jeep with the 3.7L (225.8 ci) engine. Being aware of these problems may help you prevent major engine failure.
With an average of 200,000 miles, you can expect the Grand Cherokee to last you around 20 plus years which is more than enough time if you`re looking to get the most on your investment.
Regardless of model, it`s a good general rule to avoid model years with many customer complaints, mechanical difficulties, and expensive upkeep, just like any other product you buy. Grand Cherokee model years 2011, 2014, and 2015 are the most likely to have mechanical flaws and, therefore, some of the worst to buy.
The P0600 code is a scanning tool code that indicates an error with any one of the numerous sensors that are connected to your car`s engine control module (ECM).
The P0700 indicates a serious problem with your vehicle that could prevent your car from adequately changing gears. This makes the vehicle dangerous to drive. It is recommended that you do not operate your vehicle and have it inspected and repaired by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
The Transmission Range Sensor tells the PCM the position of the transmission shifter. The PCM uses this information to control which gears of the transmission to enable or disable. When the TR sensor fails it can cause wrong gear starts, no upshifts, or what feels like a falling-out-of-gear condition.
A failing transmission position sensor may no longer send the right signals to the Powertrain Control Module, or PCM. Without signals from the position sensor, the PCM will no longer know when to shift the transmission`s gears out of park into a moving gear. Transmission shifts into the wrong gear.
Typically, two sensors communicate the transmission data to the vehicle`s powertrain control module. The first sensor, referred to as the input sensor, monitors the speed of the transmission`s input shaft. The second sensor is the output sensor, which monitors the output shaft speed.

aloha! i was told it would cost me $1870 to get a rear axle replacement. i have a 2006 toyota sequoia with mileage of 80,000. it
ANSWER : Aloha. Ah – the infamous "it’s all gone" excuse. To be quite blunt, you’re being ripped off. If a professional mechanic can’t explain what exactly is damaged with any mechanical component, they are taking advantage of you. I would get your car back and contact a different mechanic. Or, feel free to send us some information about the symptoms your car is experiencing that led you to take the car to the mechanic in the first place. Maybe we can help diagnose your issue and allow you to bring that info to a different mechanic. Mahalo.
having trouble getting the tension belt back on using the proper tool. Is there a secret or a clue on getting it back on?
ANSWER : Hello. I would definitely first make sure that the belt is routed correctly. If it is then typically the belt should be installed and the last pulley it should be put around would be one of the ones without a ridge on them. Typically if the tensioner is moving as it should then the belt should fit. I would also compare that belt to the old one. If there is a big difference in size then you got the wrong belt for the vehicle. If it is the right belt and it is routed correctly then the tensioner may not be moving freely. If you need some help with this, consider using YourMechanic, as a certified mechanic can come to you to [install your belt for you] https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/serpentine-drive-belt-replacement
My gas cap will not open. I can get a new cap but how do I get the current one off?
ANSWER : Hi there. Unfortunately, there is no black & white step for removing a broken gas cap. If the gas cap is stripped or spinning around, it has to be carefully drilled out. This should be completed by a professional mechanic to avoid mistakes and debris falling into the fuel cell. If you live in one of our service areas, one of our professional mobile mechanics can come to your location and complete the gas cap replacement.
Driver side axle is leaking. Do I need to replace the axle and back struts before I get new tires and alignment?
ANSWER : Hello. Yes, I would recommend getting the axle seal, and the back struts replaced before having the alignment done and tires replaced. These two tasks will require having an alignment done after they have been replaced anyway, so it’s less expensive to only have to do the alignment once. And replacing the tires before having the alignment done risks tire wear if your suspension is worn and out of alignment now. If you need a professional to check this out, a certified professional from YourMechanic can come to your car’s location to diagnose the leak firsthand and advise on repairs.
I was told by a Honda Dealer that the axle seals must be replaced in the front. I want to get a second opinion.
ANSWER : The axle seals are pressed into the transaxle case and their purpose is simply to keep the transmission fluid from leaking out of the transmission (and keep dirt and water out of the transmission, too, of course). There is an axle seal on the left and a seal on the right, so two altogether. The seals themselves are very inexpensive, typically costing anywhere from $5 to $25, depending on whether you buy them on Ebay or the dealer (genuine OEM dealer parts are recommended). Although the sealing surface on the seal is made of rubber, it would be unusual for these seals to have failed, that is leaked, on a 4 year old car with only 79,000 miles. It would be even more unusual, indeed statistically improbable, for BOTH (left and right) seals to have failed at the same time. So, your case presents as a bit of a mystery. Failure of seals of this type will evidence themselves as an external leak of transmission fluid and there will be clear, visible, unmistakable evidence of the leak, if they are leaking. What you could have done at the Honda dealer, once they alleged a seal failure, was told the Mechanic, "show me", "show me the leak". If they won’t, or can’t, show you externally visible evidence of a leak then, quite simply, you don’t have a leak. Sometimes, by the way, to deal with an unexpected question like, "show me", they’ll tell you they can’t "due to insurance regulations" preventing you from entering the shop. "Insurance regulations", translated into English, means that there’s no leak on your car.
A leak of this type, if it exists, is important though and has to be fixed so this should be resolved. You could go back to the dealer and simply ask them to show you the leak evidence, on your car, so that you can gain an understanding of exactly what is going on. If they do not indulge you immediately and show and explain everything to your satisfaction, you got your answer right there: that is not a professional shop out to help YOU and indeed you may not even have a leak. The point is to resolve this, you need to see the leak before you make a decision. YourMechanic can look at the vehicle and see if there is evidence of a leak. And, if you do have a leak, regarding the cost to install new seals, you might want to get a second opinion as well, again something YourMechanic can assist you with. As noted at the outset, the cost of these seals is frankly trivial. It is really the labor cost to get to those seals which is material. As you may know, YourMechanic dispatches mobile mechanics, who have the same (or better) certifications that the Mechanics in the shops have but almost none of the overhead. Consequently, for a seal replacement of this type, if it turns out that you need it, the savings might be substantial. As you explore your options, if you have further concerns or questions, by all means please feel free to recontact us.

ABS/CV axle problems after installing new axles.
ANSWER : Hi there. The hubs to the vehicle are designed with the harness in the middle of them for the ABS sensors. You may have installed the wrong CV axles. The replacement CV axles for the vehicle are a different design and do not have any grove for the ring. If the CV shafts bolt in good and work well on drive cycles, then check the wheel hubs to see if you have installed the wrong type of wheel hubs. If you need further assistance with the ABS issue after installing new hubs and CV axles, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you.
