Dude 10 minute intro before you actually start the oil change, you are killing me. I died and didn't even get to finish the video, thanks!

I have a 2014 for over one year been in and out the repair shop for the whole year with every engine problem you can think finally took to dealership and they will replace engine thank god I’m still under warranty. You gave great knowledge on how to maintain a beast.

Really appreciate this, I just took my 2015 Summit ED in for an oil change for $175 not even realizing I could just use the air suspension as a means to DIY. They wanted $300 to do the fuel filters but I bought the pair and necessary tools for under $50 and will keep this video in mind for my next oil change as well.

My dealer was asking $390

I bought a 2014 JGC Eco-Diesel Summit model new so I have gone through the whole emissions saga and all the recalls of this vehicle. I have about 88K miles on it and overall apart from many many recalls and 3 glow plug failures, it has been a very reliable vehicle. The performance and fuel mileage are excellent and it's capabilities as a SUV are a class above a typical SUV in this segment (especially towing). Having said that, if you do not maintain this vehicle like a fanatic, you will experience expensive issues. 5k oil changes are a must because of the EGR gases contaminating the oil as well as Fuel filters every 20k. Also DEF has gotten 300% expensive since I bought the vehicle and the DEF consumption has increased because of the new EPA approved software. Overall I love this vehicle but this will be the last light duty Diesel for me. The additional cost of Diesel, DEF, Fuel filters, expensive oil and all the funky emissions crap is just not worth it.

I really appreciate your information. My opinion with a diesel is, it's all about torque and much better MPG with lower RPMs.

Thankyou for this video.

I am using 2-stroke LiquiMoly semi-synthetic oil instead of diesel additive. 300 ml (1:100) on every tank of fuel. Costs close to nothing, great lubricant, burns ash free, great for the HD pump and injectors.

Hi. I just saw your video! Great video too. Mine is a 2015 ecodiesel and I use Pennzoil euro L 5w-30. There is a lot of debate out there on which oil to use but my manual says use ms-11106 approved oil and thats what I use. I got over 150k on my ecodiesel and it runs like a champ! I also change it every 5000-6000 miles.

In the UK the spec is now 5W-40, I think Jeep changed the spec because a lot of the Eco-Diesels were spinning their main bearings. The thicker oil was meant to help prevent this but it still happens. Very impressed with your miles, many don't get to a third of that. We're selling our 2014 GJ as fed-up with reliability, cost of parts and the risk of main bearing failure. Hope yours keeps going strong.

The early 07-08 CRD Grand Cherokee's like to have half the oil in the filter and the other half through the oil fill

Thanks for this, very useful. Did you reset the “oil life” on the computer after the service? If so how?

Car off. Hit the start button twice (do not put foot on brake. Do not start engine). Floor it three times. Hit start to turn off. Finally hold start and brake to start car.

are you pulling the filter prior to the drain plug? It should speed up the draining time or I just haven't noticed the time since I'm always doing multiple things.

I have a 2018 JGC with 83,000 miles with an ecodiesel. When I change the oil I drop the drain plug, and while it's draining I change the oil filter. I've never seen "2 or 3 cups" drain out after the initial drain because I'm not looking at it. I can only go by how many quarts I put back in and usually it's right at 8 quarts to hit the full mark on the dipstick with the filter removed while draining.

@thatlldogarage

No, you do not need to drain the fuel tank. A lot of people recommend to change the fuel filters with every other oil change. Thanks for watching!

Do you need to be close to empty to change fuel or is that screw to drain a bit off?

That screw will let you bleed off the pressure and some of what is in the lines but it won’t drain the fuel tank.

That's one thing Chrysler benefited from there venture with fiat in Diesel engines ....fiat make some of the best Diesel engines in the world...most diesel cars in Europe with Peugeot and fiat engines go more than half a million miles...

Funny he mentioned his wife thought the engine is loud. I did a lot of driving for work and when it was time to get a new jeep the sales guy knew of my driving habits as this would've been my 5th jeep. I usually go for the HEMI, however he introduced me to the Summit eco-diesel. I mentioned that diesels were stinky and noisy. He lined up a new Hemi and the eco-diesel side-by-side. I was shocked that the eco-diesel was quieter and not stinky. I'm on my third Eco-diesel now. Too bad Chrysler has discontinued these.

These newer diesels are getting choked by the recirculation of the gasses.

Hope you got a warranty for that air suspension.

Next time take your oil filler cap off before you pull your drain-plug. Also do it with a hot engine. It will all drain out in a couple of minutes.
