[QUOTE="Leakysami, post: 744824, member: 15202"] Before #5 failed I was adding anywhere from 2-6 quarts of oil a week. depending on how hard I was driving. No smoke, no leaks.... no idea where it was all going. I do not have any kind of warranty left with Mopar. They only extended the warranty on the left cylinder head because it was such a wide spread problem. The dealership said that there was a list of 2,400 people waiting on the same part. (who knows if that was true or them buying time) "Dropped a valve" is the term the tech used. If I remember correctly it was seal? that was leaking? checking the paperwork, the left cylinder head failed the compression test. Once we get a break I will do a compression test on the right side, then inspect internals. I know it will be rather expensive to do the LS swap. but at least then I shouldn't have to worry about the drive train anymore. well except for the axles. Anyone know where an LS swapped jk is getting parted out? [/QUOTE]
