Yeah, I get the cold tick in the morning...otherwise it's not an issue.
Light just came on during startup this morning I'll run my scanner on it when I get home tonight, see if it's the same thing. Pisses me off, I just had a few recalls done yesterday and they should've cleared everything from the computer. Anyway, likely the same thing...super intermittent. Doesn't seem to run bad, already get poor fuel mileage so I don't know if it affects that or not. Either way, I'm keeping it until I see the Gladiator in person...and likely gonna have to keep it anyway cuz of costs

They probably did. You probably set a pending fault on your way home, and it kicked the MIL on when you started it up this morning. A lot of diagnostics require fault detection over two drive cycles to turn on the light. Some diagnostics only require 1, such as catalyst damaging misfire (usually also a blinking light), or severe electrical issues could also trigger the MIL right away, but I'm guessing this one is a two trip MIL.

I know it is purely coincidental but right after I had the studs replaced in mine, it threw a CEL for no fuel pressure, however it ran just fine. Dealer wanted $320 to replace the fuel pressure sensor. I bought the part for $85 from the dealer and spent a whopping 15 minutes replacing it. I really don't know how dealers still get customers in for service.

I see what your saying, but really, almost $250 in labor for something that took me 15 minutes?? Unclip the fuel line from the rail, unclip the sensor and then reconnect. I could see 1 hours labor at a minimum, but not $250. |

I see just as many broken 5.3 bolts. Most commonly the Driver side rear bolt. Followed by pass rear, then drivers front. Manifolds and I believe y pipes are all the same. |

Now that's an engineering answer if I ever heard one! But I agree 100%. The manifold design plays a role in it too, it's really only common on the trucks, the cars dont see stud failure as often. I assume the truck manifolds might be thicker in the mounting area not allowing them to expand/contract as much as the car manifolds.

Can't comment on the technical issues with the manifold, but I got the infamous ticking on my pentastar a few months ago. 50K miles but 5 years one month of ownership. . My JKU is just out of the vin range for the recall, but I argued with Mopar and the covered 90% of the charges for all new valves and two camshafts. I'd call the dealer and see what they can do. Mopar Customer Care to get the ball rolling is 800-521-9922

Stealerships.
Light is back on, drove it a few cycles and no change. Haven't driven it since Thursday, hopped in today and it's still on. I'll be running my scanner again tonight to see if it's the same thing...likely.

So, are you going to fix it?

He has a scanner, he can just shut it off!
The only reason I fixed that FP issue on mine was because the remote start stopped working, and it's single digit highs here the last few days! |

Yeah, my remote start stopped working some time ago...this doesn't help it any. I just cleared room in the garage for me to get back in there tho, so that helps.

If you want someone to drink beer and tell you what you're doing wrong, let me know when you decide to start working on it.
Seriously though, I'm down to lend a hand if you want.

How about I just provide the beer and supper and you come suffer the cold garage space and do it like you're part of my Mopar team
Didn't get to it last night, caught a cold during my CO trip and just laid low. Crawling out of it today, see how I feel tonight. But any real work won't happen this week anyway, so...clear the code again and see what happens.

It would be easier for me to lend a hand over the weekend sometime vs during the week anyway.
