Troubleshooting Oil Filter Housing Leakage

What to Know About Chrysler's 3.6L Pentastar Engine

By Larry Hammer

Technical Services

LIONEL LIKES THEM CAPS NICE AND

TIGHT

THE PROBLEM IS, THIS IS THE THIRD HOUSING

HE'S ABOUT TO DEMOLISH IN LESS THAN A WEEK.

T he shop had just performed a lube service on the

2014 Jeep Wrangler equipped with a 3.6L Pen

tastar engine. Days later, the customer returned with an oil leakage complaint. When parked on an in cline, oil would pool beneath the vehicle and a foul odor was emitted due to the oil coming in contact with the hot engine and exhaust components. When it was de termined the oil filter housing was the culprit, the ve hicle owner returned to the dealer for warranty repairs. Initially, he was told that overtightening the oil filter cap was the reason for the damaged housing and he was quoted $600 for the repair cost. When the dealer deter- mined that the vehicle was one of several vehicles identi fied in Chrysler Service Bulletin #09-008-15 for leakage conditions, the housing was replaced under warranty. ?e mentioned service bulletin identifies several

2014 Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep applica

tions and specific production dates that may encounter oil filter housing leakage.

At the time of this writing, the housing

was on backorder with Chrysler. ?is can only mean that oil filter housing leakage is a common issue with these applications, therefore be prepared for the encounter.

Oil Filter H

O using ?e oil filter housing and cooler is positioned beneath the intake mani fold, which is referred to as the val ley of the engine block. Both oil and coolant flow through the housing, which is sealed to the engine via O-rings. ?e presence of leakage in this area is difficult to pinpoint, as a quart of oil may accumulate in this area before any evidence of leakage may be ob served, and then it may only be present when the vehicle is parked on an incline.

Oil POOling in engine Valley

Prior to servicing any application equipped with this oil filter housing/cooler arrangement, we recommend checking the engine valley for evidence of oil pooling due to housing leakage. Identifying a leakage condition prior to servicing the vehicle can save a lot of frustration and it may prevent you from having to absorb some un necessary parts and labor costs that were not your fault. Fabricate a dipstick (preferably from wood) and in

sert the dipstick next to the filter housing, allowing it to descend to the bottom of the engine valley. ?is will allow you to measure the presence of oil accumulating due to housing leakage. Min-ute wetness on the tip of the dipstick should be no cause for concern, as this is most

likely spillage that has occurred when changing the oil filter. If your inspection reveals an accumulation of oil in this area, a discussion with the vehicle owner should occur prior to servicing the vehicle. If the customer is not receptive to having the housing replaced, be certain to document your recommendation on the repair order and have them sign it. Retain a copy for your records. We have heard reports of fires occurring due to oil filter housing leakage. tO rqueing tHe Oil Filter CaP

Some vehicle owners have been falsely

told that aftermarket oil filters would dam age the oil filter housing, and others have advised that over-tightening the oil filter cap would crack the housing. We agree that over-tightening the cap could damage the housing and each shop owner/service manager must caution their lube techs not to over-tighten the cap when changing the filter.

While there has been no documenta

tion that over-tightening the oil filter cap has resulted in the damage to the housings il lustrated in the Chrysler Service Bulletin, it is of major concern. ?e cap is stamped with a torque spec of 25Nm (18 ft. lbs.). Over-tightening the cap can result in dam age to the oil filter/cooler housing in the form of cracks, or disturbing the housing O-rings, resulting in leakage. Torqueing the cap can save hundreds of dollars in un necessary repairs. We have observed a lot of caps that were cracked from over-tightening and most likely a few housings have been destroyed in the process. While this writing has been focused on 2014 applications equipped with the

3.6L Pentastar engine, other year model vehicles with

this same engine and oil filter housing/cooler arrange ment are subject to the same conditions. For additional information and illustrations, ask your
