  1. quit worrying about what others tell you about their problems/solution,,, get it checked with a high quality scanner for codes, does seem to be a problem that cleaning the throttle body doesn't usually fix it, get an OEM unit with new gaskets if you want to throw parts at it OR have a dealership diagnose the problem and LET them fix it yes more expensive but probably cheaper in the long run
  2. well it could be several problems ,bad throttle body or dirty, or could be a accelerator pedal sensor going bad,or many other things such as wire shorting out,,,you might start with cleaning the throttle body unit..check out YouTube videos more more info on how to do it or take it to a garage and let them check it out...good luck I am sure others will chime in soon maybe with more help........P.S. when asking for help it would be great if you gave us more info like which engine you have and the mileage of the journey and what kind of service has it rec over its lifetime
  3. yes the fuel filter and pump are both inside the tank and are not serviceable, very seldom with a fuel filter plugging up these days, BUT you might have low fuel pressure from the fuel pump but would need some gages to check that and if it is interment almost impossible to catch
  4. also when it is not starting try moving the gear selector to neutral as some have mentioned problems with that.... I assume the grounds at the engine have been checked to make sure they are in good shape,
  5. after i googled it it seems they did offer them on 2017 journeys not much info on them BUT they were an option probally more than you will want to find and buy but that is up to you ,,,,good luck and let us know what you do
  6. call your local dodge dealership and give them your info and see if they have a part number for the booster seat and if so start googling that number
  7. i was just going by what you said i just put in 30 gas and then it started misfiring,, i would concentrate on bad gas before throwing money at parts... like i said add some gas treatments for water in the gas and try to run it all out and then add some injector cleaner as well i like using chevron brand myself, and like others have said switch the injector/coil to a different plug to see if the code changes of course on a 3.6 this involves a lot of work to check but would be the cheapest way to start,,, and as tsteves5 mentioned the new coil could be bad ...i have been watching a lot of you tube mechanics i follow and almost all of them have been saying lately to stay away from amazon ebay and all mail order part suppliers due to cheap chinese junk parts
  8. I would def remove as much fuel as possible/and or add a dry gas additive to help before i would throw any expensive parts at your journey,,, i am assuming you have the 2.4 eng,might not hurt to throw in some new plugs as well since they are easy and cheap but if you do only use the OEM plugs..good luck and hope it was only some bad gas...........sorry just seen where you said you did just replace the plugs.oh well
  9. I haven't found any part stores ( orileys,advance auto, autozone) around me that can check abs codes with their meters. the mid grade ($150-200) harbor freight meters have the capacity to check them
  10. thanks for replying back for others to see if they need the help
  11. I noticed the the marked site read is not functioning since the reformation of the site
  12. THIS is a common problem when people ask for help and then when they get the problem fixed they usually never come back to post the fix for the problem thus leaving others wondering on what to try,please repost when you find your problem solution
  13. just connect the 1 hoses that deliver the hot coolant to the core with the return hose to the rad / engine from the heater core, i am sure you can google it or even better check on you tube for more info and videos
  14. a tire with a few pounds low will not put your journey into limp mode,sounds like you might have an electrical problem,also you could be having a problem with a wheel speed sensor. or maybe a wheel bearing going had,, hence the traction light
  15. Blend doors cannot make your journey overheat,
  16. welcome to the group,,,,,,,,,, ALL the connections including the battery cables and also at the alternator connections as well and the ground cables and straps to the frame and starter,
  17. I just had mine replaced not long ago i just used a led flashlight and shined it down the side of the oil filter /cooler and you will see oil pooling at the base of the filter container IF that is your problem, i had been watching mine for a while as i have around 150 k on mine 2014, had it replaced at the dealership since i had a warranty on my journey...actually this would be a cheaper and easier repair than the trans IF this your problem, some of your pitures do look like trasns oil tho,,, take care
  18. this guy has a lot of good videos on dodge engines ....
  19. i agree with your [description of where the oil filter loc and the tranny loc what i was saying that when it does leak enough it, WILL drip on the drivers side downwards, it has been reported here a lot..just thought id throw that out as a possibility,, hope you get the leak fixed with the least amount of trouble and $$,good luck I have seen some discussion on the internet about whether to use the alum one or go OEM, both good and bad reasons
  20. Just something to check but are you sure its trans fluid, as the 3.6 engine when the oil cooler starts leaking it comes down the drivers side of the engine when it gets bad enough, a led light shining down along side of the oil cap will tell you if you have any leaking of oil out of the bottom of the oil filter /oil cooler,,good luck
  21. Welcome to the group...... when asking about a problem we need all the info on what you drive and all the problems with what things you have done to it to be able to even guess what might be wrong.....there is no 3.7 there is a 3.6 so who is changing the spark plugs every 6 months? they are good for 100k and it takes a considerable amount of time to even get to them. also are you using the OEM plugs ? . just saying.. oil changes should be around every 7 k with just regular driving ,heavy use driving should be done even sooner,, what about the trans service has any been done? and dont forget the awd maintenance and coolant services. YOUR best option is to have it serviced when the light is on at a dodge dealership to see the code, they would have the best info on what they think is wrong and might end up cheaper than unloading the parts cannon on your journey. please report back on what you find out is your problem for others to learn from it
  22. Okay.....................check you tube or read your manual on how to reset it and or read thur the forum on how to rest it and or fix it if the plastic clips are broken
  23. not sure which hose you are talking about but the brand i am using is 75 foot and is the same dia ( 5/8-3/4) as most hard hose and delivers the same amount of water to the sprayer as well with full force it is 5/8 or bigger, i use it on my pressure washer as well, ( i did fill a 5 gal bucket of water thur both of my hoses old hard hose and the Zero G , and both filled the bucket in the same amount of time that is permissible to use with the pressure washer req need of water) now i wouldn't want to use it on your dairy farm due to the fabric cloth covering but then that would def be a different grade of water hose for that purpose use, but for around a house and garage it has held up great i have reg version of it that is black covered that i have had for over 5 yrs with no problems and then the contractor brand version that is heavy grade which is 75 ft for 4 years and both work for cleaning the town house brick which i use to spray the siding off all the way to the top of the peak of the roof, so around 25 foot with just a reg hose sprayer from walmart.
