Fuel Filters — 3.0L Turbo Diesel Engine We recommend you use Mopar fuel filter. Must meet 3 micron rating. Using a fuel filter that
does not meet FCA’s filtration and water separating requirements can severely impact fuel
system life and reliability.
Under normal conditions the diesel fuel filter should be replaced
every 20,000 miles (32,000 km) (every other oil change). If the vehicle is being used in severe
operating conditions, or In certain geographical areas of the country (Pennsylvania, New York,
Ohio, Maryland, West Virginia, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska)
due to fuel cleanliness issues, it’s recommended to replace the fuel filter every 10,000 miles
(16,000 km).
Fuel Selection — 3.0L Turbo Diesel Engine Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable supplier in your vehicle. Federal law requires that
you must fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (15 ppm Sulfur maximum)
and prohibits the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel (500 ppm Sulfur maximum) to avoid
damage to the emissions control system.
For most year-round service, Number 2 diesel fuel meeting ASTM specification D-975 Grade
S15 will provide good performance. We recommend you use a blend of up to 5% biodiesel,
meeting ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel engine.
This vehicle is compatible with biodiesel blends greater than 5% but no greater than 20%
biodiesel meeting ASTM specification D-7467 provided the shortened maintenance intervals
are followed as directed.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid Mopar Diesel Exhaust Fluid (API Certified) (DEF) or equivalent that has been API Certified to
