New Wrangler 3.0 EcoDiesel Oil

[Ozzmann1966]

My owners manual has two oils Jeep recommends for the EcoDiesel. Mopar 68231020AA 5w-40 or Pennzoil Platinum European 5w-40. I couldn’t find any info on these oils. Seems like Jeep is worried about the Sulfated Ash for the DPF. I found a few other oils people on here are recommending.
Motul 8100 x clean 5w-40. (Sulfated Ash 0.98)
Ravenol VST 5w-40. (Sulfated Ash 1.05)
Amsoil Signatures Series Max Diesel Oil
(Sulfated Ash 0.99)
Shell Rotella T 6 5w-40 (Sulfated Ash (1.0)
Schaeffer 9000 Synshield OTR Plus
5w-40 (Sulfated Ash 0.98)

I couldn’t find the Sulfated Ash on the Mopar or the Pennzoil. I really want to use the Schaeffer 9000
But I don’t want to void my warranty. Any help would be great

What else does the owners manual recommend? SAE

 

[Ozzmann1966]

Manual recommends 5w-40. Here are the specs from Schaeffer oil. Not an expert but it seems Dodge /Chrysler must have some kind of deal with Pennzoil. I have used Schaeffer oil for long time.

Are any one of these better than the other like Amsoil or Redline or Motul. I’ve used Amsoil before.

 

[cdlamb]

is this the 2020 model? In the oil information for the 2018 models they recommended Rotella T6. FCA MS-10902, API CJ-4.

Did they change their oil recommendations for the new models?

Did they change specs to the older 2nd gen. engines too?

My father had an engine fail due to spun bearings I think, with 32000 kilometers.

Those that are approved are not necissairly better, but manufacturer said they are good for that engine.
Redline is not approved (performance series) and except Redline claims, you really do not know. Amsoil has some approved oils.
Again, the key question is: if oil is better than those approved, why oil manufacturer did not send oil for approval?

I agree, the focus on grade over specification in misplaced in this thread.

I’m still on the “known to meet” … would not seem that whole list has Mopar approvals?

And don’t think I’d get Redline until I made sure it’s not shipped in a Kendall bottle
