Does the manual transmission JL have an oil cooler?
@@Silverhands Yes both the auto and manual have oil coolers.
I know it’s been some time. But 106 in lbs torque for the oil cooler to block bolts? Are these torque specs for the 2012 Jeep Wrangler? That seems like an awful lot of torque for those bolts.
You are also saying 89 in lbs for the upper intake to lower intake?? Metal bolts to plastic?? Really? That’s impossible you’d strip and break everything!
@@richierich1169 Yes these are the correct torque specs for a 2012 Wrangler. Keep in mind that an inch pound is 1/12 a foot pound. Nothing strips and everything seals up nicely when you torque to spec.
106 in lbs == 8.8 ft lbs
89 in lbs == 7.4 ft lbs
@@richierich1169 you are correct. The torque for the upper manifold is 62-79 inch lbs NOT 89. It is embossed on my manifold (7-9 newton meters) you can see it also on the manifold in this video, passenger side by the rear bolt.
I want to thank you! Your video got me thru the install in about 3 hours and been running great with no leaks for a couple weeks now. Great video, saved me $$. 👍🏼
Great to hear! Thanks for the view!
Thank you so much ! I follow your video and change my cooler, took me 3 hours and it works like new. You saved me $1000
No problem, Thanks for the view!
Just finished this job a few hours ago, thanks for making the process alot less daunting, no leaks so far and keeping my fingers crossed with a keen eye watching for any warnings! Thanks a bunch!
Nice work! Glad I could help, Thanks for the view!
This is a brilliant video, and the most comprehensive I've seen on this subject. I'm confident I can replace the oil cooler on my Wrangler tomorrow. Thank you!
Hey man, thank you so much for making this video. I’m no mechanic and this was the most advanced auto repair I’ve ever attempted. I went slow over two days and did it with no leaks or codes! Besides the injector plugs being designed by satan, I got my dorman unit installed. The only thing I broke was the pcv vent tube while taking it out of the clamp. I fixed that with a short section of rubber tubing joining the snapped tube and was good to go. Thanks again for expanding this layman’s abilities!
Glad I could help! This video also has some good info on the repair. Thanks for the view!

Same problem..lost some religion.. cussing the connectors
After experiencing coolant spilling over my bell housing and not finding ANY hint of where it was coming- my research pointed to the oil/coolant filter housing. After watching a few videos, I’m really appreciative that you provided yours. This, to me, is an excellent guide. You did a great job! Thanks again!!
This video though on a cherokee also should have some good info on the repair.

The video is shot with much forethought, and it shows.
Fantastic explanation. I appreciate taking the time to detail what each thing is as well as demonstrate the removal. Seriously. Helps me with my sister in law’s Jeep.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the view!
Wow you made that look Super simple and really not that complex , as long as you keep items in order and don’t forget to hook up. I was told it would take a mechanic 4 to 6 hours and cost $1100 with parts and labor. You just blew that scenario out of the water. Thanks and props to you it doesn’t look that daunting anymore.
Thanks! Here is a recent video that explains things even better it think. Thanks for the view!

@@TylerPotter how long does this actually take to do? I know it's edited and I figured this was a 3 hour job.
you are a good man. Thanks for the video. A friend of my wife's has had some real bad luck. Her apartment was flooded in the hurricane, and then she moved into a mobile home only to find water damage, then her jeep started to randomly overheat. Looks like the dealership used stop leak to seal the oil cooler rather than fix it under warrantee. I'm going to attempt it tomorrow. You saved her over $1,400
Awesome thanks for the view!
Excellent video tutorial. Thank you so much for this. I was able to complete in less than 4 hours. I also changed the spark plugs while I was in there. Looks like you did this in about 20 min. Nice work!!!
Awesome glad you got it taken care of! Thanks for the view!
Worked perfectly ! thanks to your video was able to complete in a few hours, and changed the plugs while the intake was split.
You Rock !
Glad it helped! Thanks for the view!

Thanks! This is the second time I will need to replace it, but this time it's not under warranty. This video was very good, so I am going to attempt it myself.
Thanks for the view! Glad I could help.
Thanks for the most informative, detailed, and well edited video. Now I know what all is involved. I thought about doing this repair for a friend's low mileage 2015 Wrangler, but it looks like more than I want to tackle. (The aftermath of COVID, the brain says "We can do this! The body says "No way!")
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks. This was very helpful. I had the upper intake off before but not any further. Made it easy to understand. The flip on the intake is great.
Glad it helped! Thanks for the view!
Great tutorial, took 4 hours and change for me including a significant amount of cleanup and went ahead and changed the thermostat while there.....Figuring out how to get the fuel pump connectors off was my biggest problem....Much patience was needed but little was exercised! LOL
Glad you got it! Yeah those fuel injector clips are a massive pain! Thanks for the view!
Just wanted to let you know that this video was extremely helpful. I watched this step by step and it made it go SOOO easy. Thanks for sharing. I did like and subscribe to your channel.

Man one of the best videos of this fix.
Thanks so much for your video ! I followed your video and changed the oil pressure sensor switch as it was causing a check engine light from time to time which would not allow my granddaughters jeep (college student) to pass the state EPA inspection? Thanks again as we were able to save the $1400 dollars the dealer wanted to replace it and apply it towards a semester costs of her education.
Wow that is awesome! Glad I could help! Thanks for the view!

Nice video! My daughter’s boyfriend and his father did this on her 2015 Jeep JKU tonight. Wish I was there to do it. I thought it was more daunting, but you made it look easy. If ours ever lets go on our 2012 JKU, at least I know what to expect. Again, nice video!!! 👍🏻😎
Thanks for the view!
I hope he earned your blessing! 🎉
Great video, pretty confident i can pull this off. Wondering why you didnt go for a cast aluminum replacement.
That was really a 20 min job? Man you made this look extremely easy. I think I feel confident enough to tackle this myself.
The clean up will take about 3 times that long lol Thanks for the view!
I am working on min now... I am 3 hours in... Got the new cooler on and putting it all back together now... Little things that he does quickly took me WAY longer.. like unplugging the fuel injectors.... I didn't want to break anything.. and after pulling the red tab up to unlock, it took a lot of pull to unseat them (rubber ring seal). Also, just reaching the tabs on the oil cooler was tough.. Also a 1/4 inch splined socket will work in place of the inverted E8 torx.
Thank you so much. I followed this video and I just finished the job. The hardest part was dealing with the passenger side and the connectors on the back of the oil cooler. I wish I bought a power ratchet as well. You save me a 1000 dollars man. Thank you. I put the upgraded doorman metal part in. I did get a p0113 intake air temp code. I clean the TB so I wonder if I damaged the sensors in the tube.
That's awesome! A lot of times if the intake temp sensor does not get plugged in fully it will set the code. I would unplug and plug it back in and try clearing the code to see if it returns. Thanks for the view!
@@TylerPotter well so much for that haha, looks like my jeep puked out all it its oil. I took it to the dealer and they thing its the housing. I am just having them do it this time. But i learned lots from your video. My guess was a frozen pcv, (-40c here in canada) this week.
I just did this job. Took me a few hrs. A couple of tips: Get that clip removal tool he has. There are A LOT of clips in this. Disconnecting the fuel injectors was the most difficult part. Also, contrary to what has been said, it is very easy to drop stuff into the engine so take care to make sure that doesn't happen. For removing the lower intake manifold: I disconnected driver said fuel injectors first, loosened all the fasteners, wiggled the manifold, and removed the pass. side injectors (they are the ones buried under all those hoses). Also, I didn't have that rush of coolant that he used the pinch of pliers on the back of the oil cooler for, some coolant came out but nothing significant (maybe I'm low?)
All good info! Thanks for the view!
Bro, thank you very much!
I didn't find a suitable video in Russian, in your opinion I did everything without any problems!

Awesome job and thank you for this videoing help me a lot to tackle this job
Awesome great to hear! Thanks for the view!
First off, Thank you so much for this video! It helped me so much fixing a way too common in all 3.6L engines. Second, I do caution novice DIYs on attacking this themselves. There are many frustrations that you will run into and you will question your sanity a lot. Before starting make sure you have socket extenders, some of these both are just tough to get too. Make sure you have no where to drive too for a few days because it may take you more than just one afternoon like others have been successful with, so don't rush. The biggest trouble I ran into was removing the fuel injector plugs from the fuel rail. Damn red safety clips are a bitch especially when they put brackets and wiring in your way. Something soo stupid pissed me off for too long. This project took me a solid two days of just taking my time as it was 30 degrees out. Putting things back together was a lot easier. I have been the driveway family mechanic for 10 years and I do not look forward to doing this again. Do your best to find the aluminum cooler dorman 926-876 so you can avoid cracks in the future but always out of stock! Good luck Jeepers, MillerLites help a lot.
Thanks for the info and view! This video is also some good info for the repair.

Thank you very much. video was super easy to follow. Disassembly went fine, cleanup was a breeze using a vacuum extraction tool to suction that mess up. No leaks. Unfortunately, i pinched the map sensor connector/wires when i installed the upper intake manifold (didn't see the MAP connector and it got pinched between the upper manifold and the metal bracket where the 10mm nuts attach to the manifold studs). The wires on the MAP harness look ok but i am getting P0108 (MAP) and P0113 (IAT) errors. The Intake Air Temp sensor is connected as is the MAP sensor. Not sure if i have a vacuum leak, pinched MAP wire by the connector or something else. ugh.
Yeah there is a lot going on back there. Hopefully you got it taken care of. Thanks for the view!
Awesome vid! Definitely confidence inspiring.
Awesome! Thank you for the view!
This video was extremely helpful!!! My Housing was not cracked but the gaskets on the bottom of the cooler were leaking oil.
Yep! That is pretty common, glad I could help! Thanks for the view!
What's the mileage on your jeep when you discovered the o-rings were leaking?
@@slugzkea 31,000 miles
@@filmvi37 jeez that's early. Warranty?
@@slugzkea We are in the US Virgin Islands. Trying to get work done at the dealer is next to impossible. We bought the Jeep from Budget Rental at 13,000 miles.
Excellent video brother. I went with the aluminum replacement on our 2015 Wrangler. I thought maybe it was the housing itself that was the issue being plastic and the fact we bought it used. I always torque the oil filter housing but it turned out the seals on the bottom were the issue.
Anyone with a 3.6 with 100000 miles should probably just replace it.
Thanks again
No problem, I still haven't gotten to install one of the aluminum ones yet. Thanks for the view!
Great video. I've seen a few of these done now and yours doesn't look as daunting as others have made it out to be

Awesome! I learned so much from this.
Thanks, and thanks for the view!
Clear, concise, informative, and amazing. I just wanted to replace the oil pressure sensor but I am hesitant about whether or not I should do it but your video gave me some confidence, I have turned some wrenches in my lifetime but have never done something this risky. Do you think I should try doing it myself? 😬
If you take your time you should be fine, the oil pressure sensor is located on the back of the oil cooler, so you won't even need to unbolt the oil cooler, just unplug the oil sensors and replace the pressure switch once the intake is off. Thanks for the view!
Great video and well explained!

You make this look doable for a diy person. How long does it take you on average to do that job? Yes i know it will take me 2 or 3 times longer but I know most shops charge a standard labor fee and i want to decide if it's worth it to do it myself if the time comes. I also would like your opinion on Dorman aluminum replacement parts. Would recommend upgrading to aluminum parts when doing this job or thermostat housing replacement jobs?
Such a good video. Thanks for the help.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot! You removed those fuel injector red clips and plugs in about 2 sec each........I broke 3 and fought them for an hour.

@Tyler Potter Great video!!!
Thanks for the view!
Thank you awesome video
Thanks for the view!
Hi Tyler thanks for putting this together. I think I may need to do this and have two questions.
1. Online catalogs suggest the correct oil cooler depends on engine plane date code but I can’t that info. I have a 2016 grand Cherokee 3.6 Laredo AWD. Do you know the correct part number?
2. You mention filling the coolant at the end but didn’t talk about draining it in the beginning. Is that necessary if you clamp the hose like you did?
Thanks, I unfortunately don't know the part number off hand. You could call a dealership with you VIN number and they should be able to confirm the correct part number for your application.
Second even with the hose clamped you will still lose a little coolant into the valley of the engine. Draining it would help that issue or like I did in this other video I used a fluid extraction tool to clean out the valley before reinstalling. Thanks for the view!

2months ago i went in and did all 6coils/plugs from a one misfire. Now i get a big oil puddle and its this. So now i have to go back in again which i wish i had info about the cheap oil housing and I could’ve replaced it while i had it tore down. Story of my jeeplife.
The cold weather seems to knock a lot of oil cooler out.
Really liked the video. Very obvious you have done this quite a few times. I was wondering why you didn't torque the intakes bolts down. I know that it doesn't take a lot of torque, but you basically seemed to snug it down by feel. Do you recommend adhering strictly to the torque specs especially since this is the first time pulling these manifolds?
Yes after doing so many of these you get the feel of them, but using the torque spec is always best, thanks for the view!
Just did this job ,,on a 2013 dodge challenger..3.6 L....used the all aluminum replacement part.926-876
Came with upper and lower intake manifold gaskets...83,79$ ebay....
89.50$,,,with tax....took about an hour in the driveway... pretty easy job... Un plug coils instead of the injectors... makes it easier....
Nice glad it went well! Thanks for the view!
thanks for the video. I did it yesterday on my 2012 Wrangler and the car will not start. It cranks, but won't start over. During the installation I cleaned almost all the oil under the assembly, made sure everything lines up before tightening. Put everything together - does not start properly, cranks, makes weird noises and shuts off. Rechecked the fuel injectors - they all are connected. Any suggestions? Thank you
Possible that some of the intake gaskets got knocked out of place causing a large vacuum leak?
Wish u would put a list of tools we need in the Description.. to do this job
Thank you!
Thanks for the view!
Correct me if I'm wrong, isn't disconnecting the negative battery terminal one of the first steps in the procedure? Seems I remember this always being in almost every service manual back when I was wrenching twenty...just the other day...Excellent explanation, very informative and clear with good pointers. Well done Tyler
You are totally correct, the service manual says that for about everything! Thanks for the view!
@@TylerPotter Yeah, sometimes for the most ridiculous jobs, too. Remember, warnings are because they got sued for an idiot getting hurt doing something normal people would never consider, like using a hair dryer while in a tub of water.
Well seems like I'm the only here who did way ...way more than just the intake...I forgot where all the freaking wires go. Pretty useful for that as well. I did the oil filter housing spark plugs, timing chains and guides, Radiator, obviously oil and Coolant as well as cleaning the air filter and checked the rocker arms in the valve train. Trust me this engine is a real task to work on and you'll need alot of professional grade tools. I am a Tech so I have no worries that way but the routing for the wiring harnesses is something easy to forget and not so fun to find how to put back
Nice sounds like you will have a happy engine after all of that! Thanks for the view!
My daily job is a watchmaker, that being said I am mechanically minded and try most of my jeep work myself. This was the most I have ever done in a engine bay. And would say it wasn't easy or hard, but patience is key.I just did this today and this video was what I mainly based my repair off of. I watched as many as I could and took notes. One thing I heard and I did was to open the oil fill cap. Not sure if it affects it or not but apparently it gives less oil lose. That being said, damn. It's a job. I did my spark plugs as well and tool fitment is a bitch for 2 of them. Another thing I wondered is how tall are you? You are reaching in that thing like you are a giant. Hahahha. As well as being lifted and front bumper set up with lights, it makes this job a bit harder. Everything was straight forward and in total it took me 6 hrs. Yup. 6hrs. But took my time and made sure I did the best I could do. As of now all is well. Well check for leaks, although I didn't have any, it was just a bad sensor. But from everything I heard, replace the unit if you are in there. That's it. Was some what fun. Got a little frustrated putting the lower manifold take on but it all worked out. Thank you very much for the wonderful video.
That's awesome you got it taken care of yourself! I am 6'3"ish but was kneeling on the front bumper for the reach. lol Thanks for the view!
What are the reasons you use the impact and the ratchet? I’m looking to add to my Milwaukee collection now that I need to do this on my jeep but don’t see the difference in the tools really for this job and why you use both?
Thanks for a great vid
One or the other could defiantly do the whole job, I guess I just have both available with sockets already on them but you are totally correct, one would do just fine. Thanks for the view!
Thanks pal And Good Job
Thanks for the view!
Its actually possible to tighten down the intake plenum without the thing being seated. Ive done that before. I had to take all that back apart and re-seat the intake. And if its not perfectly seated it will suck air from the side and wont run right.
You are totally correct! I have almost done that myself also. Thanks for the view!
After getting everything back together, how does taking a pressure washer clean out all that leaked engine oil from the valleys? Seems like a half assed repair not to clean the oil out when you have already have the intake off.
Dorman now has an all aluminum replacement for the 2011-13.
Yes normally I will clean out the valley of the motor before reinstall. Or you can use degreaser and the power washer and it really does clean them out well as you can flush a lot of water under the intake up near the oil filter area. Thanks for the view!
I wish you could show the secrets on unhooking the electrical connections. I just destroyed one injector plug and now im about to destroy the plug on one of the sensors in the cooler.
The red lock tab needs to be pulled up 1st and then the tab on the connector, sometimes they still so stuck and still crack or break. Thanks for the view!
Should I reuse my sensors from the old unit, considering they work fine? I’m upgrading to the aluminum version. While it comes with sensors, I’m not sure if I should use those and risk them not working and having to redo this process again
Yes we reuse the sensors as a lot of the Mopar coolers now don't come with sensors installed. Thanks for the view!
Do you have any recommendations on how to remove and replace the fuel line? My main concern is the fuel spraying everywhere because of the pressure. I have the special tool already, but I didn’t know if there was a way to depressurize the line or something prior to removal
Yes an easy way to depressurize the fuel system is to remove the fuel pump relay or fuel pump fuse and start the vehicle and let it run until the engine runs out of fuel due to the lack of fuel pressure. You then are pretty safe to pull the fuel line due to there being little to no pressure left in the lines. Thanks for the view!
thx great video. any idea what the labor charge should be on this job? thank you
I believe the labor charge is around 2.5hrs on this job and the shops hourly labor rate will vary drastically depending on location. Thanks for the view!
Cost me 900 and in less then 6 months leAks again

I have a friend that owns a repair shop and the very first day I worked for him he asks me if I've ever done a 3.6 oil cooler. I've been a mechanic for 27 years but took 20 years off from it to work a job that would actually feed my family. I told him no I don't even know what you're talking about and he told me you can't say that after today. Needless to say it took me a bit longer to do it than it took you lol.

@@TylerPotter will it didn't help that I was working out of my buddies took box, which is a shit show in itself.
Question for you After getting mine replaced .I just did a oil and filter change but only tightened the cap hand tight which wasn’t enough and oil leaked out of the spout.Now im getting oil leaks hopefully from the oil puddled in the gully which drips like a oil cooler problem.Is there anyway of getting that spilled oil out without taking it all apart .Im hopefully its that and not leaking again Ty
Yes the filter will need to be tightened down fully. You could try parking or jacking the front of the vehicle up high and running oil de-greaser and brake cleaner down the front of the engine valley to help clean out the oil. We will also use a power washer at the front of the valley to help push all of the oil out of the valley. Thanks for the view!
No need to disconnect battery?
