Ohh wow, you have a 2008 with 100K mile... Oh my.... I am not sure if I am jeasul or if I feel sorry for your wallet.... Well, I would hope the Owners Manual, would have to Coolant type and amount needed. Dealer Only sounds right. These new Jeeps, cars, truck, seem to use new fancy coolant forumals..... |

Thanks tjkj2002, once again you're a source of knowledge. Thanks I'll make that trip first thing in the morning. Anything I should know before I attempt the Flush or is it pretty standard? |

To do a proper "flush and fill" you need a machine like this http://www.rtitech.com/coolant_mcx-2f.asp If you don't have one of those laying around and/or don't want to pay a shop to do it then just drain the old out and add the new. |
