  1. Hi and thanks very much for the prompt reply. The stereo that I have is the RET/REQ sales code which is the first one you listed. MEDIA CENTER 230 (REQ) — AM/FM STEREO RADIO AND 6–DISC CD/DVD CHANGER (MP3/WMA AUX JACK) I did have a read at the manual but there is so much conflicting information on the net that I thought I would ask for advice from folk who knew what they were talking about. I don't want to end up ordering the wrong Uconnect module as so far I have found 3 which are allegedly for my vehicle each with different part numbers etc. I'm prety sure that there is no Uconnect module fitted but I'm unsure if the module kit comes with a new wiring harness for the rear view mirror - which would appear to have a mic built in. Thanks again George
  2. Hi there, I have a 2010 Dodge Journey SXT CRD which appears to be fitted with the Convenience Group II package - Adjustable Roof Rail Crossbars Cargo Compartment Cover Driver/Passenger Lower LED Lamps UConnect Phone w/Voice Command iPod ® Control Rearview Auto Dim Mirror w/Microphone It has a RET stereo fitted with handsfree buttons. However when pressing the button it states that it's not equipped with Uconnect. It also has the Ipod integration cable in the glovebox however ipod/iphone will not work. I'm assuming that it will need a Uconnect module and wiring?? Or could they just need programmed by the dealer?? Where should the Uconnect module be located? On the rear of the rearview mirror there are 7 contacts in total however there are only 3 wires attached via the multiplug. Can anyone help me with part numbers for the module and wiring harness for the rearview mirror? Any help would be greatly appreciated Many thanks George
  3. I to have been querying a similar issue with regards to faulty diesel fuel injectors. It is a well known fault and recall within the VW/Audi community but nothing has been passed to Dodge. I have spoken with technicians at Audi and they confirm that my injectors are the faulty ones but won't replace them as part if th recall campaign as the vehicle is a Dodge. I have explained this to Dodge customer services however they will not contact Audi and query this. My next step is contacting Audi customer services and see what kin of response I can get. Apparently the injectors fail and will cause the vehicle to cut out and will not restart. Others complaining about the engine hesitating and poor fuel economy. Both of which I am suffering.
  4. Thank you for the reply. I picked up the car from the garage today after doing what the requested only to be told that they can't find anything wrong with it. I asked them if they had driven it the 100 miles and refilled the tank only to be told that the wouldn't do that despite agreeing to at the time of booking in and being told that they could keep the car for as long as it takes. They have told me that the EVIC is showing 45-50 mpg(US) on average so everything must be ok. That would equate to 54-60mpg (UK). Despite having the discussion about these things not being accurate I can't see those figures being a reality no matter how tame I drive! They have now told me to try it again and if I get the same readings just to bring it back then the will try it. Getting fobbed off I think! I had found alleged mpg figures on the internet and thought it best to find out what the drivers are actually getting so I know what I'm aiming for. Next step is a visit to Audi to see if they can shed any light on it. Thanks again for your reply
  5. Hi all, I have been having recent issues with my Journey 2.0CRD - random misfires, lacking power and poor fuel consumption. My driving is combined town and urban about 50/50. When the fuel warning light came on I had filled the tank with 67 litres and drove it until the fuel light came on again. I managed 450 miles of combined driving with no extra weight and only me in the car. I worked this out at average of 30.55mpg (imperial) and 25.43 (US). Figures based on 1 gallon (imperial) = 4.55 litres. I contacted the dealer who checked the car over and found no faults. They told me to fill the tank so that I could see the fuel in the filler neck, drive 100 miles and refuel to the same point then find out how much fuel I used. I had done this and used 19L for 100 miles which equates to about 23.94mpg (Imperial) and 19.93mpg (US). They have now told me that this is not far from the average fuel consumption of around 40-45mpg(Imperial) and as such can't fault the car?? The engine used in this car is the VW 2.0 diesel which some have a known injector fault which causes all the symptoms I have, I had tried explaining this to them and have asked that they contact VW for info however they have refused point blank. Is anyone else having similar issues with the diesel? What are you getting to a full tank? Many thanks George
  6. Hi all, I have recently purchased a 2010 Journey SXT CRD which has 15k miles on the clock. A few times after I have been driving on the motorway and come off in to built up areas I have had issues with the engine misfiring particularly in 3rd gear. After a short time it seems to clear itself. There has been no management lights on during the misfiring or at any other time. Has anyone else had an issue like this? Any info would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance George
