2004 Jeep Liberty Logo
Anonymous Posted on Jan 04, 2011

I have the p0306 code showing for my 2004 3.7 liter V6 Jeep Liberty. There is a loud knocking/popping associated with this misfire. I have changed all of the spark plugs and the ignition coil for cylinder 6....same problem remains. I can feel the knocking in the gas pedal as well while driving. The idling is rough and there is loss of power while driving. The 2 other codes involved the 02 sensors. I have talked to 2 different mechanics and we are all stumped. Can anyone help me?

But not one ASE mechanic i bet. they get it right.
so 306 means must misfire.
or better, weak Combustion on #6
so did your mech check compression on #6?
seems not. or vacuum for bouncing, seems not.
that knocking, did he check that first. it must NOT knock.
that knock is serious and will get worse, Id not drive it.
not me, engines are expensive why make it worse?

SOURCE: check engine light codes and troubleshooting

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak for the lean code and the misfires. I don't see a 473 code in my manual, but have a 463. The 463 is for the fuel level sensor open or voltage high.

We have an 02 Liberty 3.7L, here at my repair shop, after customer replaced, spark plug's and all coil pack's, brought it here to my shop, was running with two cylinder's miss, did cylinder compression test, no compression on two cylinder's, remove valve cover's, found two rocker arm's off, remove cylinder head's, and found that on those two cylinder's the valve seat's had drop, keeping the valve open, and that's why the two rocker arm's had come off, do a cylinder compression test, could be the same thing, hope this was very helpful.

SOURCE: 2002 liberty 3.7 liter. I have replaced the coil,

If you have Coil- on -Plug you haven't found the bad one yet

Your not always going to get a code that is correct
e.g.PO304,PO305 etc

I would buy the injector from you, as I'm sure that wasn't it,
unless you have an air leak around it

You want no vacuum leaks,a near new EGR Valve,no
air induction tubing leaks

Clean the MAF Sensor with CRC MAF Cleaner

Clean Throttle Plate--CRC Throttle Body Cleaner

You did put anti-sieze on those spark plugs, if not
do so.

How old are the O2 Sensors
More than 80,000 mile,replace the front 2 with OEM
Specific Make--Bosch or NGK etc and not some
cut & splice universal type
