I know our 3.7 is 5 quarts. however I'm changing my girlfriends and I saw somewhere it was 6 quarts. this is on a 200 GC with the 4.0. Is 6 right? I know we've got alot of XJ fans on here

I think it is 6 but it has been 8 or 9 months since I last changed my oil in the TJ so I could be wrong

royal purple ,wix filter once a year need it or not :D
then again I only drive maybe 3-5K a year so no big deal

3.7 is 5.5 qts...at least it has been for the last 50,000 miles on my KJ...

IIRC the 4.0 is 5.5 too.

My LJ with the 4.0 I6 uses 6 quarts of oil. The last time I changed it I had only bought 5 quarts originally. Then after it was drained and refilled, I double checked my owners manual and it said six quarts. So I had to take the wifes car to the parts store to get another quart.

Our 4.0's both take 6 quarts with a oil/filter change.

My 3.7l takes 5quarts but it always reads a tick high on the dip stick if I put a full 5 quarts in.
