I was wanting to do a poll for the 2007-2011 JK Wrangler. I'm curious how many miles/life of these 3.8L V6s before they croak. Please share the odometer reading, and if you've had any problems from the engine; or perhaps something else. I put this poll under stock but was debating the modified board since I, and others upgrade their Jeeps. I'll start off with mine: 2007-55K=No problems. fwbb

2010 with 130k on the clock- zero motor issues.

112k on 07 jk. Does not burn any oil. I just replaced intake gasket as it developed an antifreeze leak.
|
2008 with 133k on the clock. Little burning oil never hurt anybody..

65,000 miles no powerstrain issues |
Coming up on 33K. The only problems I have had in 5yrs of ownership are one rear caliper and several HVAC problems, stupid plastic gears, TPMS sensors and rust!
