    2014 Jeep Wrangler has coolant temps above 240

    I'll have to double check when the fluid begins to flow, last time it seemed to be higher than 203 maybe around 220. Might have been my imagination. Thanks for the recommendation on the reader. I've been looking to pick one up. From what I've read they can be mixed and they're both green...

    2014 Jeep Wrangler has coolant temps above 240

    So the new t stat from car quest says 203. The hose does start to get hot around that time so I am questioning if that's the issue. I don't have a jscan or a obd reader. I'll definitely pick one up today if I can find one local. If not any recommendations? As of the temps. It seems to stay...

    2014 Jeep Wrangler has coolant temps above 240

    Unfortunately it isn't. I called my local Mopar dealer and they said it was back ordered. It's a carquest I believe. I'm going to test a duralast t stat later today just to see if maybe it will resolve the issue. I do have the t stat oem ordered but it won't be here for about 2 weeks :/

    2014 Jeep Wrangler has coolant temps above 240

    I was using prestone platinum coolant. I did mix the prestone all vehicle and the platinum and it says it's ok to do so. Probably not the best idea. When I get the thermostat today after work I'm going to flush the system again and just use 1 type instead of mixing.

    2014 Jeep Wrangler has coolant temps above 240

    Hey thanks for the reply, I did swap it out a month or so ago and it seems to be working as normal opening up around 195 I believe. The hose does get hot but I'm wondering if the fluid is just staying in the radiator side and not going past the thermostat. I'm going to take it off and try the...
