Have you had the battery checked (and the alternator?) - on a modern RR low battery can cause havoc with the DTC's!

Jeep / 2006 Jeep 5.7 Hemi Misfire at Low Revs
« Last post by Crumpy on July 27, 2017, 10:55:15 »
Can anyone please advise where to go next:

2006 Hemi with 90000 miles (in the UK)

Recent Air filter change
Recent oil change
Recent Transmission Fluid Change
Occasionally running rough & misfiring at low revs
Runs on LPG (GAS) and Petrol
Petrol Injectors cleaned (Wynns advanced injector treatment) 2 tank fulls
Gas Injectors cleaned (Ran Carb Cleaner through injectors)
Codes:
P0300 - Random Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0302 - Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
P0308 - Cylinder 8 Misfire Detected
Replaced all copper Spark Plugs & Torqued down (needed doing at 90k miles anyway) old plugs look good
Cleaned & inspected all coils
Checked resistance of Coils all OK & reading the same
Swapped coils 2 & 8 with Coils 4 & 6 on same bank to see if code moved no difference
checked PCV valve clean and good suction on hose
Reconnected battery cleared all codes
Started up fine all good no codes recorded
Ran for 150 miles tried gas & petrol all running fine, gave it some hard acceleration
no codes raised
Started the next morning engine code P0300 came on on way to work misfiring and running rough .
Engine revved ok in neutral on gas or petrol, then spluttered misfired and died a few times when put into drive.
Using a cheap OBD II reader, Other spurious codes which appeared once but have not reappeared :
P0608 - Control Module VSS Output 'A'
P0188 - Fuel Temperature Sensor B Circuit High Input
P0208 - Injector Circuit - Cylinder 8
P3441 - Cylinder 6 Deactivation/Intake Valve Control Circuit/ Open
Put into Local garage
EGR valve removed & checked working ok
Ox Sensor seems to be working fine
no other codes except P0300
Replaced Crankshaft position sensor
Cleaned Mass Air Sensor
Throttle Body removed and cleaned
Codes have not come back but still occasionally splutters on both Gas and Petrol at Low Revs and engine light flickers
everytime i disconnect the battery and leave it for an hour then reconnect it runs like a dream for a few days this leads me to think it cannot be anything physical
P0300 was the main code but it has not reappeared yet after 4 weeks however the misfire comes back

Freelander / Re: propshaft removal freelander 1

From the front of the diff forwards, I think there are 2 pieces with the troublesome bit in the middle.  The prop comes off the IRD at the front through a CV joint, 6 bolts and it should leave the IRD serviceable.   The back end is 4 bolts on a UJ flange.

I snapped one of mine., shouldn't have been using the lashing eye for recovery, not the weekend before we go away in the caravan at least :rolleyes:

Anyway, it didn't want to some out.  Annoying as the bolt that was left was way thinner than the tube it was in and there wasn't even much rust around it.

The tube is not a full tube either, as I found when my drill bit caught the edge and snapped.

I ended up grinding the bottom off the tuve in the middle, drilling the bolt into 3 pieces and hammering each one out with a chisel.  There's minimal damage to the chassis and it's strong enough without the repair.
