Thank you for that TSB! I am so tired of the noise, I'm calling the
dealer tomorrow.

As for the shifting, today my clutch is totally limp. I'm not a
mechanic at all. I have not seen any leaking from my jeep since I got
it new. I always check. I had to drive home from work all the way in
second gear. Couldn't shift. Luckily those 3.73 gears can help the
jeep take off from a stop!

Sounds like something may be broken or way out of adjustment in your clutch
pedal linkage. If the clutch master cylinder is not leaking fluid I would
check the clutch pedal mechanism. Most times a hydraulic clutch master
cylinder will leak on the inside of the firewall inside the cabin instead of
under the hood. Look under the dash. Also, brake fluid will eat paint in
short order.

Good luck,

Thank You Mr. ------. You hit it on the head. I had no brake fluid
left! I filled it up and it shifted much better. The clutch is still
a littly mushy, but works correctly. I guess I have a leak I have to
find. I hope it's not more than that.

Thank you very much.
