Jeep Grand Cherokee oil type and capacity by year
A 2014 or 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 3.6-liter V6 takes SAE 5W-20 oil meeting Chrysler standard MS-6395, 6 quarts with the filter. From 2016 the 3.6 takes 0W-20. The 5.7 Hemi V8 takes 5W-20 and holds 7 quarts on most years, and 2022 and later models take full synthetic 0W-20. SRT and Trackhawk engines need 0W-40. Find your year and engine below.

Grand Cherokee oil type and capacity by year
Each row is one model year and engine. Capacities are Jeep’s figures with a new filter. Add a little less than the full amount, run the engine, then top up to the dipstick’s full mark. A blank cell means Jeep’s own documents disagree or the figure was missing. Not listed at all, because we could not get those manuals: the 2016 EcoDiesel, the 2021 SRT and Trackhawk, the 2022 Grand Cherokee WK, and the 2026 3.6 V6. Your owner’s manual has the answer under Fluid Capacities.

3.6 V6: 5W-30, 5W-20, then 0W-20
The Pentastar V6 has had three grades in the Grand Cherokee, which is why year matters more than engine here:
- 2011–2012: SAE 5W-30 meeting MS-6395, 6 quarts.
- 2013–2015: SAE 5W-20 meeting MS-6395, 6 quarts.
- 2016–2021: SAE 0W-20 meeting MS-6395, 6 quarts.
- 2021 Grand Cherokee L and 2022–2025 WL: SAE 0W-20, 5 quarts. From 2022 the manuals ask for full synthetic with the API Starburst.
The WL V6 holds a quart less than the WK2 version. Don’t use one generation’s capacity for the other.
5.7 Hemi
The 5.7 V8 takes SAE 5W-20 meeting MS-6395 on the WK and WK2, 7 quarts with the filter. For 2018 and 2019 Jeep’s own manual lists 0W-20 in one table and 5W-20 in another, so we left that cell blank; ask a Jeep dealer to confirm the grade for your VIN. The WL 5.7 (2021–2024) takes 5W-20 in the 2021 L manual and full synthetic 0W-20 from 2022.
SRT, Trackhawk, and the diesels
- 2008–2009 SRT8 6.1: 0W-40 full synthetic, API SM, meeting MS-10725, 7 quarts. The 2010 manual changes it to 5W-40.
- 2014–2020 SRT 6.4 and 2018–2020 Trackhawk 6.2: 0W-40 full synthetic meeting MS-12633. The SRT holds 7 quarts and the Trackhawk 8.3 quarts.
- 2014–2019 EcoDiesel 3.0: 5W-40 synthetic meeting MS-10902, 8 quarts. Use diesel-rated oil only.
- 2008 CRD diesel: 5W-30 synthetic low-ash meeting MS-11106, 10 quarts.
- 2.0 turbo (4xe from 2022, Hurricane 4 from 2026): full synthetic 5W-30, API SP/GF-6A, meeting MS-13340, 5 quarts.
What the Chrysler oil standards mean
MS-6395, MS-12633, and MS-13340 are Chrysler’s (now Stellantis’s) own oil standards. Each one is matched to an engine family, so a 0W-40 for the SRT is not interchangeable with the 0W-20 for the V6 even though both are full synthetic. Jeep’s manuals say to use the grade and the standard named for your engine; Mopar oil meets them, and other oils that meet them say so on the label.
Synthetic or conventional?
SRT, Trackhawk, both diesels, and the 2.0 turbo always call for synthetic. The 3.6 and 5.7 call for full synthetic from 2022. On older V6 and V8 models the manuals name a grade and a standard, not a base oil, so a synthetic that meets them is fine.
How often to change the oil
When the oil change indicator comes on, have the oil changed within 500 miles. Jeep’s outer limits have grown over the years: 6,000 miles or 6 months on the 2008–2010 WK, 8,000 miles or 6 months on 2011–2012, and 10,000 miles or 12 months from 2013, plus 350 engine hours from 2016. SRT and Trackhawk stay at 6,000 miles or 6 months. Details: Grand Cherokee maintenance schedule. Reset steps: how to reset the oil light.
