Took mine by the dealer today and the tech that usually does the service on my truck done it for free! Was wondering if they are suppose to charge or is it a service they do for free?

Hit and miss. I've heard of a lot of dealers that just end up doing it for free because it was a learning experience for their tech. Others charge a 1/2 hour.

My Jeep dealer did it for me at no charge.

My dealer was going to charge me but I said it's in the owner's manual that the feature is "enabled" and there shouldn't be a charge. They did it free. To me it's an option like auto door locks or lights on all the time. Your choice imho. They are not adding anything.

Mine did it for free....not even an argument; just had to ask!

Mine did it for free. I took a copy of the TSB with me.

when i told the service writer what i wanted he had no clue. when the tech came out (to the parking lot with his little computer), i told him, he seemed to understand but had not done one before. i continued to explain to him and he found out how to 'enable' the feature. so it was a learning experience for them at no charge to me.

I think the "usually does service work" was the clincher. I tend to take care of those who take care of me although I have done my share of idle enables for free. Most are not even aware of the feature.

Is the high idle "feature" availble on '06 manual transmissions?

High idle as in when it's cold like a gas engine?
(sorry, still learning)

Your truck has 2 idles (not sure about the manual one on the 06)

When your Intake Temp Sensor sees under 30 degrees and you start your truck it should go up to 1,000 rpm automatically (if your e-brake is on) It will stay there till you touch the brake, put it in gear, ect

The other is to use your cruse control buttons (auto guys only) you can hit cruse on and it jumps to 1,000 rpm, then you can use the accelerate, decell buttons to raise or lower the RPM the motor runs at. This is used to warm up faster, keep heat while stoped, ect.

Again not sure if the 06's have this, but they should. Check the all might owners manual for sure (I have a 05)

I requested to have it activated while I was doing the paperwork. They did not do it before, but took them all of ten minutes to figure it out.
