Thanks Lech...our mobile onsite oil change guy is not available. We want to take off on a trip on Monday and just made that decision yesterday. Need to change the oil but I did not want to mess with the oil filter. Why? Because I did not realize the oil filter was on the top of the engine. I used to always change all of our vehicles but this one...long story...but I stopped a couple of years ago because I hated messing with the oil filter...this is so much simpler.

@@HowToWithLech QUick update. I did change the oil last night on the 2016. We have the 2016 GC 75th Anniversary Edition. Not sure it is any different. The engine cover on our 2016 has a screw under the center cover which pops off of the main engine cover. It is both a hex bolt and has a star screw. Easy to remove and then only a couple rear snap locations. In this video it had 5 snap locations. All other aspects were identical. It made it so easy not messing with a filter under the Jeep...plus the filter drains off inside the cannister...so was very little mess when taking it out.

Good video, but a word of caution, be very careful not to overtighten the oil filter. It screws into a plastic oil cooler assembly which is mounted on top of the motor. Overtightening can cause the plastic oil cooler assembly to crack and that creates an oil leak. The cost to replace the oil cooler assembly runs $800-$1,000 at the dealer. This piece was redesigned starting with all 14 models with the 3.6 and the 3.2 and most of the ones on 14 models will fail on their on. I've already had to replace two oil cooler assemblies on my 14 Wrangler and my wife's 14 Cherokee. There are also torque specs for the oil filter.

I believe they came with synthetic from the factory..specifically Pennzoil Platimum. Depends on year for weight. 2011 it was 5w-30, the new ones are 0W-20. I just know each year of the pentastar V6 they changed the oil weight, perhaps based on design changes.

The engine should be at a moderate temperature before draining the oil. The oil should be left to drain completely.
