Any feed back on the Grand Cherokee Diesel 3.0 crd. My local dealer has one and i did a test drive , it was too short but overall i did like the 3.0 CRD very much. Is there any issues ob the GC crd .......
Thank you for your feed back

I am only passing on info here as I have not actually looked at the GCD yet - the engine is great (at least I think so 'cause I work for MB) but there are a few little things the people have noticed which seem odd/not thought out with the GC. One example is the air cleaner - quite similar to the diesel Liberty but without any "baffles" and on a Liberty CRD there already is a problem with air filters getting rain-soaked. The other major complaint from our customers that have checked them out is that here in Canada, they only cost around 3 or 4 thousand less that a diesel ML. Which would you rather have?

About a $2000 difference here, NOT counting any incentives from Jeep.
