Hey everybody, After changing the fuel filter today, I found a 110 volt plug by the air intake into the engine on the drivers side. Did these come standard or do I have a heater jacket of some sort? The Jeep came with a tow bar to be towed behind a motor home if that helps. |

Or as we say in New England, Blahk Heatah. |

Yup. Standard. All the US CRDs have that block heater. 400 watts. Will not help you heat the cabin, but will help startup on below-freezing mornings. |

Those "block heater" posters are yanking your chain about the 400 w heater. The plug is for the hybrid feature that every CRD comes with. All you need to use it is to plug it in for an overnight charge. I can't believe your dealership didn't tell you about this option! |

All you need to use it is to plug it in for an overnight charge. I can't believe your dealership didn't tell you about this option! *snort* that's pretty funny... A dealership telling you something accurately? But use a really long extension cord, and you can get your errands done without using any diesel at all! FYI: it really is a factory installed block heater, which works pretty well even in the dead of a parked-outside snowy winter. Just use a heavy-duty outdoor timer to have it come on about 2 hours before you want to leave, as the jeep itself does not have any timer on the heater, and you don't want to burn it out.
