  1. On my 12 Journey Crew my “Service Tire System” has been on for quite a while. When I see my tire pressures, it shows blank for one of the wheels. Over the last year it has changed position to another tire reading as blank or “——“ still only one wheel not showing a reading but it’s no longer the same wheel, as I have filled my tires before after seeing the position switch. I realized it’s not just the sensor failing but one of the tires not having a reading and the car switching the no reading to different tires as putting air in my tires, the increase in pressure didn’t correspond to the tire I actually inflated. What could possibly be the issue? I thought of replacing the sensor but if it’s constantly switching between tires that eliminates knowledge of what tire is faulty. Not a big issue but it is something I get tired of seeing.
  2. Yeah, just asking. But it must be something outside the thermostat because even before replacing it, I still had the same issue. That’s what made me replace it because I have two journeys with the other actually needing it due to over cooling the engine. So it was two in one thing but that obviously didn’t solve the issues I had with the other. I haven’t really drove it much since I last bled the system, so can’t give much of an update but I go back to regular commute tomorrow. I’ll update then
  3. But if it’s is a thermostat issue wouldn’t the car show a code for the car over heating? Not saying it isn’t but I’ve seems journeys show code for similar issues. I also did bleed the system again hot this time. Lots of air did leave, like I felt the eng. output hose literally bubbling from air in it.
  4. I have the 3.6 at around 157k miles. I bled the system while running through the bleeder valve until bubbles were no longer visible.
  5. There’s a few issues going on with my 11 Journey Crew currently. 1. The car has an overheating issue, the engine temperature gauge likes to go from 1/2 to the line below 3/4 very often within 5 seconds. The fan will cut on (obviously because it’s past operating temps) but it constantly does this every 10-15 minutes of driving. The fan will stay on for a few seconds then will shut off because the car went back to normal. I replaced the thermostat, still occurs. 2. I have a cabin heating issue, there’s no heat on passenger side or under the rear floor. Heat only comes through the two drivers vents and drivers defrost. The coolant isn’t low and the actuator seems to work fine when I change passenger temp. To also add, when I start the car you can noticeably hear fluid going through the system, you hear it move faster as gas is pressed if that has anything to do w anything. I have two Journeys and I’ve never experienced that so I’m curious. Any knowledge or help is taken.
  6. Yeah, I have that off. It’s just the possibility of me of not knowing what comes off and in what order.
  7. Does anyone know how to remove the radiator support frame from 12 Journey? I can’t find any videos or information at all as to how.
  8. Would a autozone or something if the sort have one?
  9. Update to this thread… the actuator does ‘work’ as to move when the passenger temp is changed but still no heat to passenger side. Today, I drove the car and for the first time since this issue started, there is a leak. I followed the leak from the ground up to the car and literally above was the coolant reservoir. Still can’t figure out where the leak is at specifically. But levels still aren’t low to where air is getting in… at least not from the reservoir itself.
  10. It’s been heaving loosing coolant due to needing a sensor replaced in regards to the car accurately reading the engine temp, so the car constantly signals the fan on and uses coolant. Therefore, I didn’t think the loss of coolant would’ve played a major role in the cabin heating since it’s been an ongoing issue. Outside of that, I only hear a clicking noise when I turn on my driver heated seat.
  11. I have changed the coolant but I’ve been using the same coolant for months now. How would the coolant just now affect the heat, specifically on one side of the vehicle? There hasn’t been no signs of anything being clogged. The way i constantly have to fill the coolant I now it’s not a backup.
  12. I have a scanner myself. 0 codes or anything. I YouTube on how to get to the actuators and cores to see if anything regards to those are wrong.
  13. I don’t try to race cars I know will outperform. But when I see a cocky Malibu or equinox or something, I won’t hesitate to floor my pedal and leave a mark.
  14. 12 Journey Crew here. Within the last week, randomly. The heat on the passenger side has ‘stopped’. I’ve been on top of keeping coolant and everything in here. I can have the heat on hi and would only get heat from my two front driver vents. Not even the rear under floor vents or front defrost vents blow heat. I think the most they’ve gotten was warm. I stay In Michigan and… well the weather is shit. I did take it to a shop because I’m not familiar with the whole inner workings of the heat but of course they want $100 just to look at the car. Not fix the issue. So if anyone has any suggestions or what I should inspect, maybe how lol. Please do. Begging
  15. It is a lot of journeys here in Detroit. Literally 5 on my one block. Lol
  16. I did see like an upgrade radio w apple car play. But you need the 8.4 uconnect for it and the button is the back button for the evic. So idk how to feel abt it since the audio buttons on the wheel wouldn’t be of function anymore
  17. The best alternative I can say is get a Bluetooth aux on Amazon or something. Cheaper than buying a new radio or something. You just plug it up to the auxiliary port and put the radio on aux.
  18. It’s been happening since I got it, I’ve had it for a little over a month. It works fine if I unplug and replug the fuse but it it’ll go back to the way jt was after I start the car again
  19. Has anyone found out how to “fix” the Bluetooth issue where it doesn’t connect or pair. The whole Bluetooth function it basically unusable. If I press Bluetooth as the audio it won’t do anything, it won’t let me pair, NOTHING. I did see a post about the unplugging the fuse but that’ll only last until I cut the car off. I’ve even bought a new fuse for it.
  20. Okay after form passed I rescanned and it did pop up code p06de pcm… so that probably can explain why it was stuck between in gear between 1k-3k rpm
  21. Yeah, only code that shows it p0480 which was control circuit malfunction . I just checked the fluid and filter not even 3 days ago and everything was good and I’ve drove it once(seen in video) since then. At first it was an issue with it slipping as I’ve made a post on previously, but it’s like now you don’t even tell it’s slipping you feel it shift hesitantly or not shift at all. But I just decided to leave it alone and wait until I can take it to a shop to further look at it. Looks like its not a issue I can fix myself
  22. The engine light from a issue with the fan. It doesn’t show a code about a issue with the transmission. I went to my preferred auto shop but they’re not able to look at until Wednesday
