So after finding out more about the Renegade’s common issues, it seems that the factory ignition coils on the 1.4T are pretty sketchy and tend to begin failing around 30-35k, but don’t misfire hard enough to trigger a CEL. What I found out was that a common upgrade is to put the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

They’re also on sale right now.

So are !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! I wonder if my wife would notice beyond the several hundred dollars missing from the bank account...

Last fall. With 1.4 more inches of low, do you think she’d notice?

She might not notice right away, but she will certainly let you know when she is stuck in left lane of a 8 lane highway...

I did the 4c coils on the Abarth. So worth it.

Wait what? Lowering a car and then offroading it? I don’t get it

Well, if you think of it as a little rallywagon...

Also I hate the “angry eyes,” that every custom jeep seems to have.

I tried to find “happy eyes” for my SO’s renegade. Couldn’t find them. Also assume they’d mess with the light output of the headlights...

But yeah, the angry eyes are neat, but WAY overdone. Also putting angry eyes on a Renegade is like... I dunno a frowning puppy.

Exactly. I was thinking some 7 inch googly eyes would be a better look.

Perhaps I can make some.

I did really like those lowered but now that I drive a promaster for work i dont think i could ever buy FCA. I’m all about lowered HRVs now.

The Renegade looks so good lowered, it almost looks proper.
