  1. Hello. To my knowledge that is only possible with an after market interface like the one on this thread: CarPlay / Android Auto interface
  2. Auto Climate has a dedicated "Auto" labelled button. A non-auto can't be converted into one. With that being said, when you upgrade and connect everything we should test and use Alpha OBD in Climate section and Body Computers to make sure all works well.
  3. Being an English forum, You mean: " Hello, I also bought this interface for Fiat FREEMONT and I installed it, everything is ok except for the original microfen, my question is where do these two cables go exactly? Do you need to separate the existing wires at the connector or just solder them in parallel???. greeting" And the answer is: There's this black plug that comes from the Uconnect module and connects to the back of the radio. Just grab the wires for OEM mic from the interface and plug them as the picture. After you have to go to settings ON THE interface and select OEM mic.
  4. I like it a lot. It's confortable, It handles well. Mine needed front shocks recently, had it done at Dodge using the "factory" ones. Price is equivalent to other places around me.
  5. I wish the V6 AWD would do those numbers.... But on the other hand, gas is 1.23 Euro/L today. Over here Diesel is dead, as always has been for the most part. Enjoy!
  6. Nice ride and place! See a few younger pine trees that haven't burned out so far! For ECU issues, when I lived in Portugal, ONLY PKE. Enjoy!
  7. On mine it was the camera, not the wiring. Replaced it with the ones you buy from AliExpress. Different angle but better resolution. My Toronto area dealer tells me the supplier changed lens and are like this now ...
  8. I just replaced my front struts - Toronto - 2016 RT with 120,000 Km - Left one leaking. At the Dealership, Ontario Chrysler, new original Chrysler Quick Struts, plus alignent, labor with "free" courtesy rental. $1474.09 WITH Tax. I think you're being VERY ripped off!
  9. FINAL UPDATE!!! After new cables received, which I didn't use at all, and will be returning to them this happened: 3 weeks ago while driving, the left steering EVIC buttons stopped working. Worst, the phone button was the only working when I would press the right arrow . Then came back to normal hours later. I decided to order new EVIC buttons and Cruise control as well... Changed them. Guessed? The problem is gone permanently! So to all who read this. The ENG-Custom kit is great and i had a lemon that was the EVIC buttons.

  11. EBC brakes are a well established brand I Europe as I remember. Engine mounts for your diesel are common sight on Ebay . UK Pick a EU supplier otherwise customs in Portugal...
  12. To my best knowledge, as long as the online store says they are compatible with your year, it should be just that. Mine is a 2016 R/T (V6 as is the only option here). Recently a was hearing a noise in the front left. I thought it could be a control arm or tie rod. Turned out that the front shocks were the problem. One was already leaking. At Dodge they asked what type I wanted, original, after market, etc. I asked to have the same ones as I wanted the same "performance suspension". In your case, because you're doing preventive maintenance, if you're replacing them, please do all 4. I remember the first time I saw one Journey in Portugal. It was breaking hard due to a red light. The suspension travel was huge! Looked like it wanted to sink underground.
  13. I'm not a great mechanic or anything close. But the North American Ones are fitted with what they call "Performance Suspension" on the RT trim for example. I would try to find the equivalent for the same year as yours. On mine and compared to some I drove in Portugal there's an obvious diference with a lot less body roll and less sinking when braking. Keep in mind that for that size, weight, year and being American... It's not a Xantia or a C5...
  14. No. That image is with the trunk closed. At the bottom you have the Bumper lip, pavement, cement marriers. The background is a brick wall, the dark edges are the corners of the camera/plate lights trim.
  15. Welcome to the group! Aqui também tem Portugueses, embora no Canada, como eu. Your Journey should be the one that uses the VW 2.0 TDI engine so parts should always be easy to find.
  16. Lines don't move and you can't remove/de-activate them Angle is annoying and takes some time to get used to.
  17. Update on this: New camera received from different vendor. Installed and exactly as the first replacement. Went to Dodge today: They revised installation, and checked all possible software updates for camera, modules, radio, etc. All up to date. They installed a new one from their parts - the same. The interface is not causing any issues on this I was told that my camera is the correct one, the supplier updated the hardware and that's how it shows. Nothing can be done. Actually, they told me that unlike what I did, if I bought from them, they wouldn't refund as the image is clear and it's not causing or showing any errors. The lines are the most annoying part.
  18. Hello: After all these months, I think it's my car giving headaches. I've talked to other members na nobody has issues.
  19. Hello: I'm sorry but for some reason I stopped getting notifications from the forum replies. SO the updates are: The camera Ordered and received was the 56054158AB According to Mopar has been replaced by the one I received. I returned it and got the refund. too bad as the resolution and image was great Ordered the same from a vendor with good feedback on this. I installed the older one, still the same issues. Works 5/10 times The Android Auto/Apple CarPlay interface is a good point.... due to the issues and lack of support from ENG-Custom I'll just remove it one of these days. Once the new camera is here I'll post the updates and findings!
  20. Hello: New Camera is installed. 2016 Dodge Journey. The angle of view is strange and shows license and top corners. Backup lines don't line up. Is there anything it can be done? There's no angle adjustment on this. I purchased it online with seller verification as the correct one. 560541AB.
  21. There's that recall and mine was included on that. I wondered if the Recall software update interferes with that
  22. Read that yesterday as well... He's just another jumping on the shoot the Dodge Journey club. We can do a lot worse thank Journey. It's outdated on today's cars and features? Sure! But has a lot of good stuff going for it as well. All cars can become nightmares and unreliable, sure. And some batches are just problematic. I'm on my second one and just love it. Reliability has been perfect with the exception of the rear camera.
  23. Hello: Still waiting. They told me they're doing some test/experiments with an actual Journey they had access to. They said and quote: "try to do some changes so you can test". So nothing shipped or firmware to test yet. I'll wait, I guess. One thing is true, even with the module factory reset, no Bluetooth pairings, still jumps back and forth in screens. Some days stays quiet, other day like today, even a little turn of the wheel and changes.... today I gave up on listening to radio. Again, this only happens with the module installed. without it nothing changes in any situation... since 2018. Car was at dealership for service, they tested all steering connections and diagnosed and all clean. I have AlfaOBD and OBDLink MX+ and no errors as well. A few more days and I'll just give up and remove it all together. Just trying to be patient with them as they, indeed, have been supportive as well. I also acknowledge that I'm the only one complaining.
