4 wheel drive

The 2006 Cherokee with what they call active drive is a full-time four-wheel-drive system when the computer senses a loss of traction it automatically turns on the 4x4 system.

There were two different systems. If you have the Quadra-trac I system there is no shifter. The Quadra-trac II system has a small transfer case t-handle near the gear shift. You should read your owners manual. Check the Jeep to make sure some jerk did not put a 4x4 emblem on a 2WD though.

I bought mine yesterday and in the morning I am bringing it back to the dealership and getting my money back. There is no t shifter, but below the shifter and on the shifter console is a plus and minus and when the shift is in drive, it can be moved to plus or minus and the D on the dash will change to 1-4. But it does not work. The basic and most simple test is to turn the key on and not start the car and move the shift into drive and then push the shift to the right (toward passenger door) , if you hear a click or a slight electric motor sound (like the motor sound in an electric widow) then that means the 4 wheel drive is engaging. No noise or click, the the electrical inside transfer case or other issue will not work the 4x4. For me, 1st time ever owning a jeep, total junk and never again!

The 1-4 +- is the paddle shifter to manually select the gears compared to the automatic, not the 4wd. The 4wd will auto engage on loss of traction. If it has the active drive 2, it will have the small t-handle to engage low range which you have to be stopped and in neutral to engage. Normal for any low range transfer case. Go to a jeep dealer to get them to show you.

I am sorry to be the "Me too" guy but I have the same question. I have a 2005 though, It says 4X4 on the back. Its a Laredo. and I assumed the it was 4 wheel drive until I was watching a video on cleaning the circuit board on the shifter module. That one had a T selector.

I have a 2007 jeep grand Cherokee sells men told me its in 4x4 all the time is that true?do they make a jeep grand Cherokee with out AWD or 4x4 wheel drive? thanks

Ya my 07 jeep Cherokee is awd

haw I can stop the 4wheel drive in my grand(make it 2wheel drive)

how can we tell if a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee is 4wd or AWD? Buying from a private seller?

I have a 2008 jeep Cherokee is it all time 4x4 theres no button's to turn 4x4 on

I just purchased a 2010 Grand Cherokee Limited with the silver paddle beside the gear shift. The vehicle is in rear (2) wheel drive unless the Quadra Drive 2 system detect a loss of traction in one or more of the tires in which at that time the vehicle automatically kicks into 4 wheel drive hi. The paddle is to shift to 4 wheel drive low, for towing and other driving conditions. This is my limited understanding thus far. Hope this helps.

I just purchased' a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo but I'm kinda confused to weather it's a 4 wheel drive or not..because the emblem on the lift gate say Lerado without the 4×4 what's the differences??????

Can I turn an 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee all wheel drive into just rear wheel drive front differential is busted up

I just got a 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo and there is no buttons or anything for 4×4. If it is always there and is supposed to kick on automatically then why am i still sliding all over the place?

Does it have 4 axles if so it 4wd

2017 Cherokee - The only 4x4 I have ever driven that can get stuck on dry asphalt. The the Quadratrack is inscrutable, and neither AWD or 4WD is an option, just FWD with supplements
