Actually, I cant get wifey to part with her CRD either.

I have to agree I WOULD NOT part with my CRD if a significant other ever said "it or me" My response would be nice knowing you.
I know that some members seem to have troubles with there's but like someone else said mine has been fairly good. Its been at least as reliable as the Subaru it replaced as my DD. sure I have had issues. I had my first window reg. failure not long ago, a problem with the power seats, sunroof leak that is the drain tubes clogging up. it has needed tires and brakes same as any vehicle and when the got shady I spent the $ to lift it with OME parts. Other than a thermostat failure I have had no failure issues with the engine in over 3 years. I have GDE and Provent.
Reading these things some make me smile some I think so glad not me yet, but overall the issues I have had are more "Jeep things" not CRD things. I am seeing the 100,000 mile service is going to be no fun. I'm calling ID Parts for the parts but not 100% sure who to hire to do the work, Diesel Pro in Glen rock, pa has told me they would be willing to work on it. other mechanics will only do repairs not involving the engine. mention working on a diesel engine to most mechanics around me and you'd think you asked them to fix a flying saucer. I love the Jeep CRD and am strangely more attached to it than any vehicle I ever owned possible..... faults and all.
