I Have a 2012 jku it's time for first oil change , I have made up my mind not to let anyone change my oil I'm going to do it myself , my question is what oil to run , contacted my dealer and they said any 5w 30 with mopar filter. Any input would be great thanks.

 

I went with 5w30 synth (Mobil1) and a Mopar filter.

 

Same with me. But I just did my first change at 500 miles. A lot of people on here told me to do it at 500. It was clean and it felt like a waste, but I want my engine to last.

 

I went 5w30 synthetic and mopar filter... I couldn't find any other manufacturer making filters for the pentastar.

I really love having the oil filter up top

 

Wix is a manufacturer of filters and makes filters for the 2012 Jeep.
The part number is: #57526
Available at O'Reilly for $6.99, which Is much lower than my stealership.
Some on this forum believe they are the ACTUAL manufacturer of the filter carrying the MOPAR brand name. I have no evidence to support this claim.
They also make an air filter.

 

The filter placement on the 11 is awful...

 

Just did mine today, so easy compared to my si....no jacks needed I used 5w30 Mobil 1 EP and a mopar oil filter...I changed at 500 miles btw

 

Thanks guys!
