Jeep WK MK2's Diesel question
Discussion
Ive been considering chopping in my WJ 2.7crd for a 2012 WK 3.0 diesel in the near future.
Correct me if Im wrong, but do these more modern Jeeps have that "thing" in the exhaust to clean up the emmisions ? And you really have to give the engine a good "run" every week or so to heat that thing up and clean it out or they start to block ?
I heard it really effects people who do short runs all the time.
I tend to do a bit of a mixed bag of driving. 7 miles commute in rush hour so its a bit slow, but the occasional 10 min or 30 min spin up the motorway at 70mph every 2 weeks or so.
Do you think I'd get problems ?
Cheers

Thanks for the feedback.
My current thoughts are to keep the WJ, Ive really looked after it well and its still reliable even at 13 years and 100,000 miles.
Its not worth much, so no deperication to think about now !
Plus the way diesels are now unloved I cant see the point in spending big on a newer one for the sort of driving I do.
