Thanks for the video! I just replaced the timing belt on my 2006 CRD two weeks ago at 121k miles and fortunately everything went perfect. I love my Liberty CRD!

I’m thinking I may have a timing issue on my CRD liberty, it drives but has excessive smoke I believe caused by I burned fuel, degradation in performance and fuel economy and an associated knock almost sounds like a rod. I thought it was a dead cylinder (bad rings) but recently pulled each electrical connection off the fuel nozzles individually to identify a dead cylinder and all 4 had the same rough idle response when disconnected that recovered immediately after reconnection so my mind is now wondering if I have a timing issue, especially now that I see it’s a belt and not a chain. How much has to come out of the front end to replace the belt, is it easy or a pain?

I replaced my main cooling fan with a electric fan because the bearing on the main fan went bad and the jeeps cool too well in the winter any way. Figured I'd have something that actually might stay warm at an idle on a cold day

Damn now I remember where that short bolt went.
