What Is The Recommended Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Type?

Due to the many changes the Jeep Grand Cherokee has undergone since its original design, a variety of engine options are available across both new and used models. Given the unique powertrains throughout the range, it is essential to consult your owner’s manual to determine what kind of oil your Jeep Grand Cherokee uses. For newer Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs, you’ll want SAE 5W-30 or 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil. The Jeep Grand Cherokee oil capacity for the latest models is also 5.0 quarts, or 4.7 liters.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Change Tips

Once you’ve found the correct oil, it’s time to plan your next Jeep Grand Cherokee oil change. For the best result, follow these tips:

  • Change Your Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Filter: Replace your old Jeep Grand Cherokee oil filter with a new one every time you perform an oil change. 
  • Don’t Exceed 10,000 Miles Without an Oil Change: While your Jeep Grand Cherokee should alert you to your needed oil change intervals, it’s essential to know that you should never exceed 10,000 miles, 12 months, or 350 hours of engine run time without an oil change.
  • Watch for Your Oil Change Indicator: All new Jeep Grand Cherokee models come with an oil change indicator system that monitors the quality of your vehicle’s oil and alerts you as it degrades. When the “Oil Change Required” message appears, schedule an oil change within the next 500 miles to avoid damaging your engine.
