Oil Change Interval
For the 5.2L 4HK1-TC diesel engine, the recommended oil change interval is every 10,000 miles under normal duty. For severe duty (frequent idling, dusty conditions, heavy loads), the interval should be shortened to 5,000-7,000 miles. For the 6.0L gas engine, consult your owner's manual for the proper interval based on the oil life monitoring system.
Drain Plug Torque
The recommended drain plug torque for the 5.2L diesel is 63 lb-ft. Always use a new crush washer to prevent leaks. For the 6.0L gas engine, the torque is 18 lb-ft.
How to Change the Oil
- Warm the engine to operating temperature.
- Place a drain pan under the oil pan and remove the drain plug.
- Allow all the old oil to drain completely.
- Remove the oil filter (it may be messy).
- Install the new oil filter, after lightly lubricating the gasket with new oil.
- Reinstall the drain plug with a new crush washer and torque to specification.
- Fill the engine with the correct amount and type of new oil.
- Start the engine, let it run for a minute, then shut it off and re-check the oil level, topping off as needed.
Common Issues / Tips
- The 5.2L 4HK1-TC engine is known for its durability, but it is sensitive to oil quality and levels. Always use the specified CJ-4 oil to protect the diesel particulate filter (DPF) system.
- Access to the oil filter can be tight. A good quality filter wrench is recommended.
- If you have the 6.0L gas engine, it is a General Motors L96 V8. Parts are widely available from GM dealers as well as aftermarket suppliers.
