Regarding warranty coverage - I totally understand the concerns. However, servicing the transmission myself will not automatically void the warranty. I know, I know; the dealer can still use it against you to deny a claim. I have never had my Jeep at a dealer for service (I wouldn't even use the...
With all the discussion of "lifetime fluid", and facing a wait for the transmission filter, I decided I would do a used oil analysis before servicing the transmission (and because I promised @Maximus Gladius!). I'm not sure if some will question the efficacy of Blackstone Lab results, but I've...
Hi Benny,
Thanks for your help, I've placed the order. However, my rub with this Mopar parts ordering system (assuming they are all the same) is that the parts show "In stock, ships in 48 hours", but that hasn't been true. You show 30 days with "HP" which contradicts the website.
Also, thanks...
Thanks! I just posted to that thread. We'll see....
...Update - Order placed with www.allmoparparts.com with Benny's oversight. Benny says the filter will take 30 days, the website states "In Stock, ships in 48 hours". I know these Mopar part websites lie, so at least Benny is the first human...
Hi Benny - I was referred to you for some parts help. Looking to buy the following parts:
68522534AA - Qty 1
6510056AA - Qty 13
68417054AB - Qty 1
It appears that 68417054AB is unobtainable with no way to tell when it might be available. However, it was suggested I check with you, so here I...
When I go to www.allmoparparts.com it doesn't come up with the part number (68417054AB) during a search or when I choose the vehicle and choose maintenance parts. When I choose the "replacement parts" button, it takes me to the generic Mopar parts catalog that all the dealers use. This is the...
I realize my wording doesn't make sense. I got the Mopar fluid, no problem. It's the filter that is unavailable. I'll fix my post. Thanks for the help though.
Well... I've had no luck locating an OEM filter. It seems all the Mopar dealers use what appears to me is the same ordering system. That system will take an order, charge you, then several days later say the part is not available. Nobody knows when this will be available. I guess this is Jeep's...
I agree, One year regardless of mileage is spelled out in the manual - Smart idea. If you drive enough, use the oil life monitor. Their is a lot more than mileage that goes into the oil life monitor programming (RPM's temp, etc).

I also agree with...
My desire to do this fluid/filter change is based on a few things.
- The warranty for the transmission from Stellantis lasts until 5 years or 60,000 miles. I'm quite confident that the transmission will be fine during that period. I'm almost to 50k and have no issues. However, ZF recommends a...
While I enjoyed a hunting trip to beautiful Northern Alberta this past October, I am bit too far to employ your help on this one. But, a big thanks from Texas for the offer!!
I'm going to order a filter, gasket, pan bolts and fluid. I'm going to do this in my barn, and dammit, I'm going to be successful. Hopefully.... ;) My transmission functions perfect but I'm not one to believe in the 'lifetime' thing and I'm not sold on the flush, and I don't have any faith in a...
This morning, I sent the following three questions to ZF via email:
Hello - I would appreciate some help regarding servicing of the transmission listed above. My questions:
- After a filter change and fluid refill, is any type of TCM re-flash or re-learn procedure required?
- Is the metal (not...
I didn't find anything specific to the "RE". I know Chrysler builds these under license from ZF, but I have been using general information produced from ZF.
Excellent information, thanks!!!
On the fill page from @Hootbro post it states as the last step:
18. Using a diagnostic scan tool, clear any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC).
@Maximus Gladius - Do you think that COULD be what is meant by "reflash"? I know clearing a DTC is not a re-flash or...
