Ok guys thx for all your help and I really appreciate it. I'm going to get all this maintenance done.

I think I'm going to do all of the following listed here:

http://www.wkjeeps.com/wk_maintenance.htm#TRANS

and here:

http://www.wkjeeps.com/misc/maintenance_schedule_wk.pdf

I would really appreciate if you guys can help me out with my previous question though:

My Jeep has 190000km (118000 miles) and has started to make some funny squeeks and little rattling noises coming mostly from the front I believe, when I drive it over any little bump or crack on the road. I also do not get that extra humph when I press on the gas, it felt more sturdier/quicker when I bought this Jeep 2 years ago with 165000 km on it. It feels like it drags now when I press on the gas pedal, especially on an uphill, it just does not feel as powerful as it once was. I also have an issue with the AC not working on the passenger side of the vehicle suddenly.

Can you guys help me concerning the slow acceleration and/or ac issues I am having?

What parts should I order? And can I go to my local mechanic whom I trust or is it more recommended that I go to the stealership, dealership sorry.

Thank you all very much. 2006 Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.7 4WD
