Review - Pedal Commander | 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited X

[@majorpayne7909]

Installed mine today and definitely worth it for me. This adds to cold air intake and mid muffler delete on 3.6 Overland.

[@BlklimitedX]

Absolutely! It’s still worth it to this day for me, glad you like it 🙌🏽

Sports +/4 along with the transmission in sport mode be having my 5.7 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BlklimitedX]

I'm going to try it out with soort mode on 💪🏽

Love seeing the little one smiling when you had it in sport+ 🤣🤣

[@BlklimitedX]

😂😂 always fun with the kids 👍🏽

I always like to see pedal commanders in action. You made a good investment. I wanted to tell you, if you get the throttle response error on your instrument panel dont trip it can be reset very easy. Drive somewhere safe to pull over turn off your engine leave the driver door ajar just enough the interior light stays on and exit vehicle with the key fob stay 15 feet away with key fob for roughly 5-8 minutes. Then you can enter and continue on your way. The check engine light will also reset in like a day. If this happens more frequently you might consider a diablo tuner once I tuned my jeep with several performance tunes the pedal commander hardly ever errors anymore. Hope you read this and ask any questions you may have about the error or diablo tuner.

[@BlklimitedX]

Will keep this in mind for sure. I've seen people talk about the Diablo tune, how would that work?

[@arniceousmaximus2183]

@@BlklimitedX you plug it in to your OBD port located bottom left area by your hood release. You will also need to possibly download any updates with the tuner plugged into a PC via USB and download diablo's app install and run . Keep checking the various updates until they are all downloaded . Going back to vehicle each time for it to read unit, this will probably not be required unless they don't send you a pre programmed unit . You can tune your jeep forever and add additional vehicles up to 150 and the fee to add an additional vehicle is less once you have bought the unit . It's very easy to navigate within the interface it reads a little slow as you wait for tunes to be applied but not more than 4 minutes on each . You will notice a major difference with the diablo tune and increasing throttle from 1 to 2 as well as taking off speed limiter and increasing rpm to max on each gear you will find power that was locked away from manufacture dont know why they release engine with these off or set to low. And then you can race the little dodge journey as you take off like a hellcat leaving that little suv far behind has you see the spec disappear in your rear view mhm that much difference . That diablo tuner is some change but well worth it. If you want to continue with the quest for horse power install a Throttle body spacer by air aide with a turbo propulsion technique to the air flow and change your box air filter with a coned cold air intake by k&n. One step at a time mate slow and sure each mod costs some change but well worth it. End engine mods with uridium spark plugs autozone will supply you with those. I also changed my sock muffler with a cherry bomb vortex . Paint it black several coats with high heat bbq paint works great and is a flow through muffler . You can legally delete your resonator too that limits in some cases 50 HP back from you and there is no drone in my 2012 wk2 laredo. I just had to replaced both catylictic converters too with magnaflow style cats. That was a big job, dont worry about your cats I made the mistake of running e85 for 3 years straight . Don't believe the hype about flex fuel run only super . 🙏🏽😉

[@BlklimitedX]

@@arniceousmaximus2183 wow thank you for the detailed response, sounds promising. I hadn't considered tuning but maybe in the future that's a route I can go, but like you said I'm taking it all one step at a time. And your setup sounds really nice. 👌

[@arniceousmaximus2183]

@@BlklimitedX thanks, we originally bought this jeep thinking of a safe vehicle that I could take daughter to sport events in school I just kept modding and never looked back lol. I did a 4 inch lift on it as well that was pricey for me and bought KX matte black rims now i run mud terrain 285 75 r17 struts springs shocks are oldman emu heavy duty load. Then I took it to a 4 wheel shop and they added a 2.5 inch spacer with rubberized hood that fits around struts as well as lower ball joint and control arm replacements specially made from PA. Good work but pricey . I will drop a link when I make a video soon this month.

@@arniceousmaximus2183 will be looking forward to it 🤙🏽

[@themrbobross]

I have the same jeep in Slate Blue. I highly recommend a K&N Cold Air Intake!!! It also doesn't break the bank!!

[@BlklimitedX]

Nice! I wanted Slate Blue so bad but there wasn't any in my state for sale at the time I was buying 😭 and love K&N, that's next on my list for sure 👍

[@gabrielgarza5690]

I put the roar pedal in my 2020 Cherokee 4x4 limited and I love it.

This is another item I'm considering getting ASAP. I do a lot of highway driving and I'd love to experience the difference between with or without this installed.

[@BlklimitedX]

I still love driving with the PC 🙌🏽 worth the money for me.

[@onelord4Eva]

Great Video.🔥🔥💯Keep it up

[@BlklimitedX]

Appreciate it 🤙🏽 and I definitely will 💯

[@julyfishy392]

U have a exhaust setup? Sounds like a CAI too, nice bro

[@BlklimitedX]

Not yet but that's coming next. And I won't do a full exhaust setup but I will be doing and a resonator delete in place of an X-pipe with new mufflers and exhaust tips. And thanks bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾

[@dougzauha]

I'm kind of curious about something. My 2021 has eco mode and Sport mode. Sport mode is pretty intense. It sets you back in your seat too. If a person puts a pedal commander on a vehicle like that, should you turn eco mode off? Sport mode on the 2021 has to be turned on which also turns off Eco. Kind of curious. Another great vid!!

[@BlklimitedX]

Thank you man and honestly, I use the Pedal Commander for all m drive modes. I don’t even use the standard Eco or Sport mode on my Jeep I just use the provided settings of the PC.

[@Stone2915]

Great vid I had never heard of this

[@BlklimitedX]

Thanks man and I love the PC 🤘🏽

[@Teebiskit]

I can’t wait to get my Jeep. Damn lol

[@peterparker7437]

Bro we need a video with you using it 😂

[@andrewlane4252]

I need that on my tuck I have the same jeep

[@BlklimitedX]

Definitely a good addition!

[@willmisca5519]

yo I love the vids actually got the exact same jeep as yours, just have a question does your car heat up a litte bit when its on but in park because mine does and idk if its normal to do that or I should get it checked out

[@BlklimitedX]

Does it heat up beyond its normal operating temp? Because if so then that’s a problem. My temps stay consistent on startup and in park.

[@robbierector1669]

It doesn’t give you power, it gives you the power you already have in gears 1-78910

[@TyroneKiddPHL]

What did you change to get that sound. Did you change the exhaust?

[@BlklimitedX]

When I made this video, I hadn’t changed the exhaust yet. That came a few months later.

[@buyvcbum]

About to order this 😁

[@chakas03]

So Every time you change settings you have too put the car in park? Or turn off the car and change the settings? Need this for my srt jeep

[@clentonhendersom9997]

Hey I noticed when you started up your car that you had that blinking light kit when your daytime lights flicker I wanted to get that for mines and I was wondering Where did you get that and as far as the install?

[@mikebarrett5345]

Love the video. I'm I'm the UK and have the 3ltr diesel Summit. Does this pedal commander work with diesels? Also will I cause errors to come up such as throttle error and engine management light, limp mode etc? Thanks in advance

[@sparkupjck]

which one did u buy cus there is like 8 different options and idk wtf WK2 means😭

[@zsousaz]

Thanks for the vid! When changing between modes on the pedal commander, will it change on the Jeep itself? For example, when yo start the jeep and its in normal setting with eco mode on, of you change it to sport mode, will it change on the jeep to sport mode and turn off eco mode and visa versa?

[@BlklimitedX]

No from my experience the sport mode on the pedal commander and sport mode on the jeep are separate. If you put the pedal commander in sport mode, that won't engage the sport mode on the Jeep. You would have to activate that separately, but honestly since having the pedal commander, I haven't had to use the Jeeps sport mode.

[@FabesSole]

Does this eliminate the engine Start/Stop feature when coming to a full stop?

[@BlklimitedX]

No you still have to push the button. It doesn't automatically cut it off.

[@FabesSole]

@@BlklimitedX thanks for info! Awesome truck! Love all the kids you’ve done to it. I just picked up a 2019 limited X. Plan to do similar things to it. Appreciate the hell out of your channel for guiding me in the right direction 🙏🏾

[@robertobrien2050]

If your jeep already has sport mode how does the sport on the pedal commander work with it.

[@BlklimitedX]

So the sport mode already on the Jeep focuses more on the rpms and holding them longer extending the shift points. Whereas with the pedal commander it’s only remapping the throttle response. I run both together and it wakes the Jeep up for sure making for a fun driving experience.

[@mattygee617]

You added paddle shifters? Or did it come with the limited x?

[@BlklimitedX]

They came with the Limited X and I just added some exit on paddles on them.

[@eddiesommers4317]

Did it make the check engine light come on

[@BlklimitedX]

Thankfully no 👍🏽

[@themrbobross]

Do you have a link for the paddle shifter add ons you have? can only find blue and red

[@BlklimitedX]

Yes absolutely, they're from a company called Royalo on Amazon. I was in the same boat where I only saw the blue and red ones and thankfully I found these. www.amazon.com/dp/B07HM3TZ94/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_194JQYYB4FKX7N78CBR2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

[@2ndamendment2death72]

Did you have sport mode turned on the car as well and after some time do you think it's worth it

[@BlklimitedX]

Nope had sport mode turned off and just let the PC work. And honestly to this day it still works and performs as the day installed it.

[@cielowebson6766]

Hye thank u for answering but have a question for you.........when u go home n park ur jeep do u leave ur pedal commander installed or take it every time or what just curious..cause I've had mine for like 7 month's now n hadn't installed it yet cause was putting mods..on my jeep n it'll be done this Tuesday n then ima install it cause I've had it sitting there in a cool area n now I'm so excited n anxious to hear it n see how it does

[@BlklimitedX]

I leave it installed at all time. You will be fine doing so as well. The only time I would ever take it off is if I had to take my Jeep in for warranty work, and the good thing about the Pedal Commander is they won't be able to detect it was ever there.

[@kamrcn5813]

Is it still working fine for you?

[@PCPAyLOAD]

Can you change modes on the fly when you are driving?

[@BlklimitedX]

No absolutely NOT. That’s where people mess up with these things and have their vehicle go into “limp mode” PC explicitly says on their website and the provided instructions to NOT change the settings on the fly.

[@solo.wpolanco793]

So hru I brought one for my jeep grand Cherokee as well does it eat up ur gas or changes ur gas when u have it in sport mode then may I ask?

[@BlklimitedX]

Well it all depends on which mode you drive it in and how you drive. If you have it in Eco or City and drive conservatively, then your MPG will increase. But if you have it in Sport or Sport+ and have a lead foot, then you will see your MPG fall.

all it really does is just changing the sensitivity and response? not really changing or increasing performance/hp? also does this work in 4wd??
