Does anyone know whether the MPG computer in the Cherokee is calibrated in UK or US gallons, when gallons is chosen as the measurement?
And, whilst I'm here, I'm getting the rear shocks replaced tomorrow. I've also looked at replacing the read (leaf) springs, since I'm towing a heavy load. One source told me that Jeep Cherokee diesel springs were heavier duty, whilst the Jeep agent told me there was only one type of spring ever fitted to the range. He said there was no such thing as heavier duty springs or shock absorbers. I'm replacing the shocks with after market gas shocks, which I assume won't be any worse than what is on it now. Should the rear springs still be fine after 7 years and 52k miles? (with no towing or heavy loads that I know of) although the rear seems to sit a little low. I've measured the vehicle height, which according to the manual is
16.1 - 16.3cm, and measured 16cm approx to below the roof bars.
