- This 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WK2) has a Pentastar 3.6L V6 that was was ticking on one side of the engine. I decided to replace all 24 rocker arms, 24 lifters, 6 spark plugs, 3 coils, the oil filter adapter, PCV valve and all relevant gaskets. This is a long video, but we cover a lot so stay tuned for what went wrong and how I recovered from it.

Cam holding tool: amzn.to/3JDILkg

Well done! That’s a lot of work and you explained it very well.
Thank you very much! Appreciate it. It was a large job and a little nerve wracking. Not going to lie LOL
Nice job! That was a large job.
Thank you! It was wild. Hope I never have to do that again LOL. I felt bad uploading such a large video but I saw no way to cut it up. I've since put about 7,000 mi in the vehicle and it's still running great
What website did you use to get the bolt pattern to tighten down correctly.
Also any update on how she’s running?
I shot this video in 12/2023 and put about 7k miles on it. Sadly, (and not sadly), ended up trading this in for a 2014 Durango RT w/ the hemi. To be clear, there was nothing wrong with the Grand Cherokee - my wife just needed something bigger and I wanted to get her something nice and new (her first new car ever!). Was still running great on trade!
Pretty sure I got the gory details from TechAuthority (the Mopar/Stellantis/FCA factory service site)
EXCELLENT video Brother! Thank you so much! I am gonna have to do this on my Daughters minivan sooner or later, this is gonna be my reference video! Thank you!
It is a lot of work, but doable. If I had to do it again, I'd opt to get the OEM rockers and lifters, just for peace of mind.
