Oil Cooler Upgrade.

[Najamerson]

I have a 2015 Jeep JKU Sport w/105,000 miles. I'm about to upgrade to an aluminum oil cooler because it's leaking. Since I have to take a part a lot of stuff to get to the oil cooler, I'm gonna replace the spark plugs, PCV valve, and thermostat/housing. Is there anything else you long time jeep folks, in the know, would suggest changing? Thank in advance.

I replaced the 2 sensors on the oil cooler, coils, fuel injectors, the short wire harness and short piece of coolant hose since it's all coming off in the process.

What oil cooler brand are you using?

I don't know the brand but there is an I expensive one on Amazon that got great reviews. That, and I dont have the money for a Dorman or other expensive one. Lol

I just looked, the one I ordered has the 2 sensors with it

Consider installing MSD ignition coils

That will have to be an upgrade for a later date.

I replaced the two knock sensors while I was in there. I can’t remember how much they cost, but I’d heard enough people mention that they can fail above 100,000 miles, that I just went ahead and replaced them.


I liked using this thread for reference:

3.6L Oil Filter/Cooler Adaptor Housing Replacement

This is a basic Write-Up on how to repair the common oil cooler housing/adaptor leak. I will post as many photos as I can that will aid you, if you choose to tackle the project yourself. I will also supply a couple of picture that include ALL-DATA INFORMATION on torque specs and bolt torquing...
