2023 JEEP GLADIATOR Owners Manual

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS423
Fuel Water Separation — Must Use
Mopar® Approved Fuel Filter Elements
Biodiesel fuel has a natural affinity to water and
water accelerates microbial growth. Your Mopar®
filtration system is designed to provide adequate
fuel water separation capabilities.
Fuel In Oil Dilution — Must Adhere To
Required Oil Change Interval
Fuel dilution of lubricating oil has been observed
with the use of biodiesel fuel. Fuel in oil must not
exceed 5%. To ensure this limit is met your oil
change interval must be maintained within the
suggested schedule. The regular use of biodiesel
between 6% and 20% requires intervals shorter
than the outlined 10,000 miles (16,000 km) and must not exceed the suggested schedule. When
routinely operating on biodiesel between 6% and
20%, oil and filter replacement intervals must not
exceed 8,000 miles (13,000 km) or six months,
which ever comes first.
Biodiesel Fuel Filter Change Intervals
The use of biodiesel requires more frequent fuel
filter change intervals. When operating on
biodiesel between 6% and 20%, fuel filter
replacement intervals should be every second oil
change, and must not exceed 16,000 miles
(25,750 km).
NOTE:Under no circumstances should oil change
intervals exceed 8,000 miles (12,875 km) or six
months, if regular operation occurs with 6% - 20%
biodiesel blends. Under no circumstances should
fuel filter replacement intervals exceed every
second oil change and must not exceed
16,000 miles (25,750 km), if regular operation
occurs with 6% - 20% biodiesel blends. Failure to
comply with these Oil Change and fuel filter
requirements for vehicles operating on biodiesel
blends up to B20 may result in premature engine
wear. Such wear is not covered by the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. The engine may suffer severe
damage if operated with concentrations of
biodiesel higher than 20%.

CAUTION!
Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and
may decrease corrosion protection. Organic Additive Technology (OAT) engine coolant is different and should not be mixed with Hybrid Organic Additive Tech -
nology (HOAT) engine coolant (antifreeze) or any “globally compatible” coolant (antifreeze). If a non-OAT engine coolant (antifreeze) is introduced into the
cooling system in an emergency, the cooling system will need to be drained, flushed, and refilled with fresh OAT coolant (conforming to MS.90032), by an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be
compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may clog the radiator.
This vehicle has not been designed for use with propylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze). Use of propylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze)
is not recommended.
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Coolant We recommend using Mopar® Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile
(240,000 km) Formula OAT (Organic Additive Technology) or equivalent
meeting the requirements of the manufacturer Material Standard MS.90032.
Engine Oil — 3.0L Diesel Engine We recommend using Mopar® API Certified SAE 5W-40 Full Synthetic Engine
Oil which meets the requirements of the manufacturer Material Standard
MS-12991. Equivalent full synthetic SAE 5W-40 engine oil can be used but
must be compliant to API SN/SP and ACEA A3/B4 specifications
Úpage 366.
Fuel Filters — 3.0L Diesel Engine We recommend using Mopar® Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating.
Using a
fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturer filtration and water separating
requirements can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.

NOTE:If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below 20°F or -7°C), or is required to operate at colder-than-normal conditions for prolonged periods, use climatized
Number 2 diesel fuel or dilute the Number 2 diesel fuel with 50% Number 1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection from fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the
fuel filters.Fuel Selection — 3.0L 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 — 3.0L Diesel Engine Mopar® Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)(API Certified) or equivalent that has been
API Certified to the ISO 22241 standard. Use of fluids not API Certified to ISO
22241 may result in system damage.
