Good Video , I love the fact that jeep has put a paper element up top easy to get to.

Thanks, guys. My engine cover was stiff after removing the 10mm bolt. Watched your vid, I just needed to give a little more umph.

Great video mate! You just motivated me to do my own oil change right now! Thank you for this on point video with details on how to get the oil change done!

Great video. What a pleasure to not have to get an oil filter wrench out and dealing with an overtightened filter. Jeep got this one right. One added tip, if you have the Summit model, be sure to turn off the air suspension system before jacking the car up.

Rather than jacking the car up, can’t you use the air suspension to raise the car to the “off road 2” setting , and slide under the car to drain the oil that way?

What happened to completely enclosed oil filters, were not as messy.

Thx helped out.

Great video. Clear and concise and fun to watch. BTW I have a '21 Grand Cherokee 4x2 that I basically use for driving around town in Los Angeles. No big hills, heavy loads, or towing anything. How often should I replace the oil? There's so much conflicting info out there so figured I'd ask the pro. Thank you!

none of that matter change your oil every 3-4k miles

Simple and right to the point...

Good video

This is a great video. Thank you. Unfortunately I can’t get the plug out. It’s torqued to hell.

Quick question did you need to put a crush washer on that bolt going into the oil pan

Make sure that your engine is cool? Always have a warm engine when changing oil. That's insane to change while cool. If too hot, pop the hood, run a fan for 20 minutes, then start the oil change. Also, pop the oil filler cap before draining to allow oil to flow faster.

Thank you. Paying $129.00 for an oil change ain't the move. Lol. 😂😂 I'm going back to changing my own oil.

What happens if I don’t replace the O Ring on the filter ? For some reason mine didn’t come with one with the new filter ? Should I just do it on my next oil change?

@gtflips

Жыл бұрын

Whats up man, yeah someone probably took it out. But i mean i do recommend putting a new o ring, you dont want any leaks. If you do frequent oil changes, like every 3k miles. You should be fine. But id definitely get that o ring. If you gunna rock with the same one, just inspect it. Make sure theres no cracks, stress wear, tht its not firm, blistering etc.

The computer knows the difference between highway miles, low rpm, and around town driving so it varies. Watch you dashboard for % left. It dings at 20% and then you should change within 500.

Torque to spec bud

Anyone else watch the oil drain and think “there wasn’t any oil in there”
