2022 Jeep Wrangler maintenance schedule
Every service on the 2022 Wrangler, with its interval and an estimated cost.
The 2022 Jeep Wrangler oil change interval is every 10,000 mi or 12 months, whichever comes first (estimated cost $60-$120). Jeep's oil change indicator system decides when the oil is due: when the cluster shows "Oil Change Required" (or "Change Oil" flashes), have the oil and filter changed within the next 500 mi (805 km). Under no circumstances should the interval exceed 10,000 mi (16,000 km), 12 months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first; the 350-hour limit mainly concerns fleet vehicles. Frequent short trips, trailer towing and extremely hot or cold weather bring the message on sooner. 4xe: the fuel and engine oil still age when the vehicle is not driven, and the vehicle tells the driver when it runs the engine to maintain the oil and fuel systems.

Under no circumstances should the interval exceed 10,000 mi (16,000 km), 12 months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first; the 350-hour limit mainly concerns fleet vehicles.

| Engine Oil & Filter (diesel)Safety itemThe oil change indicator system decides when the oil is due: have it changed within 500 mi (805 km) of the "Oil Change Required" message, and never let the interval exceed 10,000 mi (16,000 km) or 12 months, whichever comes first. With biodiesel blends above 5% (B6-B20), change the oil at least every 8,000 mi (12,875 km) or 6 months. When replacing the filter, remove the residual oil from the filter housing with a suction gun, or wait about 30 minutes for it to drain back into the engine.Guide How to Change Your Oil · The engine oil system: what every part does | 10,000 mi / 12 mo≈ 16,000 km / 12 mo | $60-$120 | |
