Just wait until the oil filter housing/cooler goes teats up on you. It’s not if but when. It’s a plastic part that WILL fail and when it does it is buried deep between the cylinder banks under the intake and fuel delivery system. I believe Chrysler quotes it as a 5 hour job. It is such a common problem that Dorman, the aftermarket parts maker, now offers an aluminum replacement. File this post away in your memory because there WILL come a day that you begin to smell coolant when you park your Jeep and you’ll wonder where 3 quarts of oil went since you aren’t burning it and there’s none on the ground. Just look in the vee between the cylinder banks and there will be your oil. In my mind this is THE BIGGEST fatal flaw with this stupid mini van motor. Good news though MOPAR’s newest motor will be a 3 liter inline 6. You can read all about it here or just do a YouTube search and you can watch HOURS of video concerning the replacement of the oil filter housing/cooler. Enjoy!
I’m beginning to see why there’s so many used jeeps for sale at dealerships
