The 2001 Jeep Cherokee has A4.0 L 6-cylinder engine that needS-10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in above 0 F temperatures and 5W-30 for below 32 F temperatures. The capacity for the vehicle iS6 quarts with a filter and the torque for the drain plug is 25 ft/lbs. The difference between synthetic and conventional is that synthetic is man made using chemicals compounds and contains fewer contaminants. Oil is really important to use because it will help to keep the engine clean and running and will help to lubricate parts to help with friction. You should change the oil and the filter every 12,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. The cost of an oil change is anywhere from $30 to $40 in labor costs.
