First DIY oil change in like 25 years... 😅 Couldn't have been easier with impeccable instructions. Oh the money I could have saved for a down on a third Jeep. Thanks team.

This was extremely descriptive and helpful for an oil change tutorial… I didn’t know the pan screw or the oil filter cap had torque measurements.👍👍

I haven’t changed my own oil since high school. This is helpful as I am commencing work on my Gladiator 👍 💯

Thank you sir! New like and subbed!!! Got a silver 23 JL 6sp (2door of course 😅) and just trying to do my due diligence to take care of this beautiful machine. So far I have acquired the following tips. 1) Make sure to do my first oil change at 500 or so while engine is breaking in 2) make sure filter housing Ở ring is CORRECTLY installed, different sizes and heights of oil filter between different generations, easy to place wrong 3) Make sure to NOT overtighten oil filter housing, to prevent cracks. 4 Don't wait for 10k mi change! Change at 5k 5) fill correct amount 5L 😅 So glad this knowledge is freely accessible nowadays. Thank you

How? Like genuinely how??? The dashboard literally says “hold ok to reset”. If that part isn’t intuitively obvious to you you should be nowhere near an engine and probably pay someone to change your oil.

Very helpful! I might try it next time on my JL

Looks Easy and simple, love it!

This made it very easy!!! And it was fun!

Its better to use a 13mm socket with long extension to take out oil drain plug. Keeps oil from getting all over your hand...

On 11-30-2020 I ordered my first ever Jeep. It is a 2021 JL Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon with the 3.6 Liter Pentastar V-6 mated to an 8 speed automatic transmission. My heart wanted another manual transmission but my need dictated buying an automatic. My Jeep arrived at the dealership on 02-12-2021 and I did all the paperwork to buy it on 03-01-2021. So far I totally love the Jeep and have bought several things to help me out when I take the Jeep out off roading. With my Jeep, I’m not quite yet to the mileage where I need to get the oil changed but when I do I will either go with Mobil 1 Extended Performance motor oil along with a Mobil 1 oil filter cartridge, (I have used this set up for decades on all of my vehicles.). I may also start using Royal Purple High Performance motor oil, Royal Purple HPS High Performance Street motor oil, or Royal Purple XPR Extreme Performance Racing motor oil with either a Royal Purple oil filter cartridge assuming that they make one or the Mobil 1 oil filter cartridge. The last option that I am considering using is Amsoil Signature Series motor oil, or Amsoil XL Boosted motor oil, or Amsoil OE motor oil, or Amsoil Dominator Racing Oil motor oil with either an Amsoil oil filter cartridge or a Mobil 1 oil filter cartridge. If I go Amsoil, I’m thinking that the signature series motor oil will be my best motor oil option to go with. Last, in spite of how long these companies all say that their motor oil will last for, I will still continue changing my oil every 2,500 to 3,000 miles to ensure that the motor oil and oil filter cartridge are both being replaced well before the motor oil and oil filter cartridge start losing their protecting abilities.

Thanks for the video. I have to insist to the dealer service reps that it should be 5 qt. (for JL/JT) and not 6 qt. but they still mess it up and overfill it with 6 qt.

I couldn’t tell in video, but when installing the oil ring back on cap, did you put it snug against the top? Or in a groove just before the top? When I changed my oil ring, I forgot to look and was questioning myself on how far to put the oil ring back on.

Just realized that I need a torque wrench for below 50 ft lb. My only one is above 50 for doing lug nuts.

@northridgenation

They are quite handy to have for smaller items.

As long as the oil is full synthetic, the correct weight and is API/ILSAC approved , it won’t “void” the warranty regardless if it doesn’t meet the MS-6395 FCA oil recommendation. That according to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. I believe until 2009 Mobil One was the preferred Chrysler oil. When the company filed for bankruptcy, they apparently owed M1 money for oil that was purchased but not paid for...and that’s why FCA doesn’t recommend M1...I ran M1 5W-20 in my 2014 Wrangler and had no issues...

In the final step you DO NOT put your foot on the break to clear the change engine oil notification.

Does it need chassis lube? Thank you.

When I did my oil change on my 22 gladiator it seemed like less that 5 qts. Alot less. When I filled with 5qts. It's seemed overfilled on the dip stick. So I'm not sure if it needs less than 5 even though the manual says 5.

I didn't torque my plug. I just tightend it and gave it a "little extra". Should I really torge it? It's probably about 10-15 ft lbs if I had to guess.

Just past snug about 1/4 turn has always worked for me just as long as you don't over tighten to the point of having to break it loose next time.

What Oil Filter did you use? It's hard for me to see what type you are using in your vid. I think that it says "MO-349".
