the heat from the engine is not significant enough to hinder power or air temperature difference from the engine bay. ?

modified intake is temporary, just got the carbon fiber to make the permanent tube. the JB weld will never crack due to the heat from the engine, the pentastar V6 does not make that much heat.

So I had bought an SRI for the Journey but the intake tube was too heavy with the cone filter, soooooooo I decided to modify the original intake into an SRI. You can really hear and feel the difference from the stock intake and this modified one. 

Note: I also upgraded the sparkplugs, ignition coils, cleaned the throttle body, replaced the PCV valve and installed modified oil catch can.

I made my own SRI...  ??

Sorry for the long wait...  here is the link for the video clip of exhaust set up...

Installed Cherry Bombs on my 2015 Journey SXT, here is a pic and video.

Here is a short video of the SRI I made using the secondary intake tube by cutting off the restrictive intake air diverter tubes and covering the holes with the ends of the tubes using JB Weld. You can hear the engine breath better...

Here are some pics of the modified intake tube.

Installed 3157 LED switchback turm signals/DRL with resistors (to prevent hyper flash) on my 2015 Journey and they work nice. Also have 9005 and 9006 LED headlight bulbs, 2504 (PSX24W) LED Amber fog light bulbs and T10 Amber LED side markers. Below is a link to how the lights look.

I'm thinking of purchasing a set of Ripp coils in the near future, I have upgraded coils at the moment but want better response and from what I've read from Ripp their coils are a good upgrade.

you only need to remove this cover located right below the intake filter box.

the resistors will solve the issue but you need one resistor per bulb and they need to be secured to metal if possible as they will get hot.

Guys don't give up on your Journey just yet, If you have full coverage you may also have mechanical breakdown coverage and it will cover your Journey up to 100k miles or 10 yrs whichever comes first. Mine had a transmission and rear differential replaced and I only paid $250 deductible. Please go over your insurance coverage to see if you have the mechanical breakdown option. ?

clean the throttle body with some seafoam and a soft bristle tooth brush.  Start it for about 15 mins then add seafoam spray through your throttle body ( 1 whole can) and 1/4 can through vaccum line at about 2000 rpms and don't panic if it stalls. let it sit for about 15 mins then drive it normal for a couple of blocks and if you can, hit the highway so you get it up to ateast 60 mph. Your check engine light will come on but it will clear after a couple of days. Cleaning your throttle body restores some of your power and engine response specially with new coils and plugs.

My 2015 Sxt AWD also had the same issue then it didn't start at all, Vehicle Not in Park message cane on and it was the Neutral position sensor that went bad. Its about $65 and easy to replace with some patience, No need to drain the transmission.

As mentioned above, new rotors and brake pads need to be changed and also check your brake fluid level.

Make sure to get an alignment right after you do your installation. ?

In Cabin filter change DIY, its that easy. It was windy when I changed it...

Installed dual cherry bomb glasspacks on 2015 Journey and it sounds Amazing, if you don't mind it being a bit loud. These are perfect ID size 2.25" on OEM exhaust pipes.

*Video clip will be uploaded soon.

 ut on a Spectre SRI with a K&N cone filter.

Cleaned the throttle body with seafoam and a soft bristle tooth brush and modified the secondary intake tube 30 mins ago for less restrictive air flow. *Not for the faint of heart.

I put these on my Journey and they work real good, they're also easy to install.

Just an FYI for everyone in the forum which is something that I had no idea about. Last year my wife's 2015 Journey SXT AWD started having transmission issues but it was just over the 65,500 miles so no more coverage from the dealership. BUT !!!!!!!!! when I checked the coverage from my insurance company I noticed that it covers mechanical breakdown to 100,000 miles. So I took it to the dealership and they fixed it and only paid my deductible for a transmission and rear differential. So ladies and gents check your policy for this coverage because it will save you thousands of dollars.

I just did mine last night, literally took me about 40 minutes from start to finish and about $110 (6 qts ATF +4, filter and pan gasket).

PPE - gloves, goggles

1. Raise Journey and put jack stands

2. Losen but don't remove transmission pan screws (8mm) let oil drip out on oil bucket.

3. Remove transmissoon pan, remove gasket and clean magnet.

4. Remove filter (2 torx screws - T25)

5. Replace filter, gasket and pan

6. Refill (mine took 5 1/2 qts)

7. Lower vehicle, start and go through all gears without moving vehicle.

I had the same issue with the wife's Journey this weekend, turns out the positive battery terminal was 80% corroded, replaced it with a new one, also replaced spark plugs and ignition coil packs (link below) and that basically solved my issues.

Always go with canbus LED, no need for resistors. the cargo lights on the trunk are festoon.
