I would take a look at your catalytic converter. Sometimes these can get red hot. Often related to oxygen sensor issue. Past that suggestion, I can't help more. Good luck

SOURCE: 2001 Jeep Liberty air conditioner

Check the cooling fan relay. Have a guy(or girl) at an auto part store (AutoZone, etc..) hook up a diagnostic code reader to the hookup uner the steering column dash. I replaced mine, but it was timely and alittle tricky. If you have some tech ability, you can do it, but if not, it will probably be about $350.
If you let the jeep run with the a/c on, look at the cooling fan and see if it cycles on after a few minutes. If it doesnt, it could be the relay, if it does come on, then it could be a condensor prob.

SOURCE: when in 4wd it makes a noise

Is the noise in the front or middle? If it's in the front, it is most probably a wheel hub or differential case bearing. First I would check (or replace) all the gear lube in the transfer case and both differentials.
If the sound is under the middle of the jeep, it's probably a front output bearing in the transfer case.

SOURCE: Engine smells like rubber burning

Generally that smell is caused by an oil leak that is getting on either the exhaust pipe or manifold (doesn't take much to smell). As far as bottle getting low, I've got a 93 that never stays full but only needs coolant in the radiator about once every two months. Been like that for two or three years and has never overheated. I'm sure there is a small leak somewhere, but I'm not driving myself crazy looking for it. Check all hose connections, and look on the ground after being parked overnight...If it's leaking, something will show up. But if the radiator is staying full, just check it when checking oil level.

What causes smoke to come through the vents on a 2004 Jeep Liberty 5 speed manual 3.7L engine?

It will most likely be whisps of steam you see through the vents often accompanied with sweet smell. The heater core is usually the culprit and is leaking. Any coolant stains/wet marks on the passenger floor. Does the windshield fog up when on defrost. All signs of a leaky heater core

I have a 2004 liberty and it leaking oil

Check the oil pressure switch. It is located up by the oil filter. It is fairly common for them to leak and would be the first thing I checked. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them. Thank you for using FixYa.com!
