    2011 Town and Country Van
    Replacing the oil filter housing assembly because it was leaking oil.
    Also the lower and upper intake manifold rubber gaskets were replaced with new gaskets.
    Drained and filled engine oil and coolant. My friend gave only 5 quarts of oil and it needed 1 more quart. So he add a quart the next day.

    Thank you sir, great video. I replaced mine in a 2011 with 80k miles yesterday to today. I probably spent around 4 hours actual working time. Partly because I take it slow. Mostly because it was 22* yesterday and I didn’t want to break things! Great job being a good dad, too!

    Unbelievable. I own a 2013 Town and Country and had been told WHAT was wrong, but had I not seen this video I doubt that I would have taken on the task. One Sunday afternoon later, and hopefully no more drippy drip on the garage floor. Crazy simple to watch and follow. I would have been done much faster if I owned a laptop, but found it enjoyable to do a step, check the video, and do the next step. My buddy just had this done on his 2015 Charger for $600 and was thrilled. They were diagnosing Rear Main Seal before I showed him the video, saved him some serious cash just like it saved me. Beyond thrilled with what Fix It Angel has taught me and encouraged seeing what a Dad he is too. Thank you, thank you, thank you. PS.....btw, might not last but we also had a Check Engine light on since we bought this van 3 years ago. Doesn't affect much except it does keep the Remote Start from operating correctly. The light is now gone. Perhaps the two sensors under the housing were drowning in oil? At any rate, DOUBLE thanks again Fix It Angel!!!!

      This part has been a total nightmare for me. I have had two covers break when removing. The first time I was able to get the broken one off and it just entailed buying a new cap. Now a second one broke and when I tried getting remaining part off part of the housing broke and I am now looking at having to change the whole oil housing. I can get the part about $150 but I am sure this will close to 1000 bucks with labor and taxes. The person who authorized this design should be dragged out of his home and hanged by his eyelids until he blinks. I only hand tightened it but it still broke :(

    My Chrysler started out overeating and then one day it leaked a small amount of motor oil.
    I was overdue for an oil change and the shop told me my oil housing was leaking. I checked AI and it said the repair takes 30 minutes to an hour. Something told me to come watch RUclips. I’m glad I did because now I know what tools to buy and how much torque on the screws…Bro, we don’t deserve you 😢🫶. Thank you 🙏

    I'll volunteer a couple of more things. First, (after depressurizing), disconnnect the fuel rail at left front instead of removing each injector. Also, my intake plenum is stamped 5-7 N-M, or 45-65 in-lbs.

    Thank you for a very informative video. I completed this repair yesterday. I did not drain the coolant - I pinched off the coolant hose with vise grips. Also, I did not disconnect the fuel line. I used a bungee cord to pull the lower manifold out of the way and it worked well. The replacement went very smoothly and I used an aluminum replacement part. Hopefully, I wont have to do this job again!

    I am so grateful for this video, I first replaced the Oring & seal kit from Mopar. The oil leaked again after a few hundred miles. This time I ordered a complete Oil Housing Adapter Kit from AA Ignition, part # GWA422 . I closely examined the one Oring, comparing it to Mopar Oring. The after market unit Oring was fatter! The dimensions of a is given in OD - ID - W , typically small Orings are 2.5 - 3.0 W. I don't have tools to measure these Orings, however my caliper showed that the after market ring was thicker. It took a little more pressure to seat the new part, I dabbed a drop of oil on the Oring and it felt snug. I hope this works!

    doing the repair of this cooler unit on a 2012 dodge journey right now, this video provided wonderful information, direction, advice, coupled with some other videos too, i have turned a $2600Cdn fix into a $450Cdn Fix (including full price oil and such instead of discount stuff) i have a mechanic buddy coming to help, but i actually feel i can do this my own tonight, and be done, and then just enjoy a visit with my buddy tomorrow.

    This was in my opinion the best detailed repairs made to a Dodge/Chrysler 3.6L engine. My oil cooler is not leaking, but I am wondering if I should replace it when I replace my spark plugs and radiator hoses in the summer. My 2011 T&C has 110,000 miles on it now.

    👍👍👍I also used your top notch video and the provided info to repair my van. I didn't get as much oil out of the part as you did causing the mess. 5-8 hours for my first time(with beer breaks), probably 4-5 next time. Will be on the look out for a vehicle for sale with this issue if I ever want a charger or w.h.y. Thank you, saved me about 1000$ with plugs change out at 90,000 KM'S on 2014 caravan base model, and during a time of unemployment due to Covid19 scare in Canada. Peace!

    You can upgrade the 2013 pentastar oil filter housing to the 2014 and eliminate the spring failure inside the housing that will cause the spring to shoot out after the plastic gets brittle! Did it with my 2013 dodge avenger. It will look bigger than the old one but set flush with no clearance issues.

    This should be covered by a recall. My 2014 Chrysler 300 missed the warranty by a couple months. This part should have lasted a lifetime

    • @zuberalisyed9786
      @zuberalisyed9786 5 лет назад

      Same here my caravan 2014 missed the warranty by couple months as well, They want $900 for fix it should be covered as faulty part.

    • @clouseblowhard891
      @clouseblowhard891 5 лет назад

      My 2016 rt caravan started having a major oil leak right after an oil change and when I got home there was a big pool of oil. It's been towed to the dealership but I believe the oil filter housing cooling assembly was cracked by the person doing the oil change. I did go back to the oil change place and they told me its a faulty Chrysler plastic part and not there fault. Ill post back if my warranty covers the work.

      @@rspec122 I took the van to the dealership who diagnosed it as a pinched gasket and it was a 10 dollar part and easy fix. My engine was covered in oil on the top of the motor so things had to be removed for the oil to get cleaned up. Mr.Lube paid for the engine cleanup and the part but fought me very hard and didn't want the work to get done at the dealership but there was no way in hell I'd let Mr. lube touch my van again. Mr Lube came to my house to to clean up the oil spill on my driveway but all they did was put down some powdered clay then never came back.

    • @DarkpawTheWolf

      Just failed on my 2014 Journey. This should definitely be a recall.
      And to make things worse...it has to go back in tomorrow because the tech messed something up putting it back together, and now I smell coolant and the res is empty. Sigh. Also probably reused gaskets.

  • @johndickerson5015
    @johndickerson5015 5 лет назад +1

    Ours had exactly same issue. This is an excellent video. The part ran us about 162 but make sure to order the gasket sets and do the plugs at the same time. The work is slightly time consuming but easy. Poor design of an oil cooler and if you have a guy who reefs on the filter housing it can crack, or in our case the gaskets in the bottom will blow out. Sure enough the oil cooler issue fixed the oil leak. My Jeep has same cooler... not happy about it. Anyway this is a great video and you don’t need all the tools listed. The only specialty sockets needed are the star socket (inverted and regular). The rest can be done with a few wrenches and screwdrivers. The vacuum trick is nice but save the hassle. Use a syringe or meat basting bulb. Suck out the oil.

    I’m sure you performed a awesome job on repairs , more so... outstanding video . I’m embarking on changing mine as well , could have used a more precise description of order of sequence of upper lower intake bolts and oil unit ! I’ll just have to reduce speed of video ! LOL thank you

    Had this exact issue with the same make and model. Auto shop wanted $1,000 for parts and labor. I did it for parts around $225 and got a new 1/4" drive torque wrench and set of T sockets out of the deal. Thanks and your videos are the best.
