Recently, Dorman has a newer version (926-959) that includes new Oil Cooler as well as Oil Filter/Filter Cap that can be installed on a Gen 1 Pentastar. Only the 2 sensors would need to be bought separately.

Dorman came out with a new kit that includes the assembly, o-rings, bolts AND gen2 cooler (helps to retrofit to gen1 engine), they even include the oil cap. The cap has a nice reminder plaque that you need to be using a 2015 oil filter, even if your engine is 2011-2013. Part # 926-959.

I installed this Dorman 926-876 Upgraded Oil Filter / Cooler Housing Kit (ebay) to my 2013 JKU Wrangler (28 Oct 2021). After watching MotorCity Mechanic’s vid: To Upgrade or Not To Upgrade your 2011-2013 3.6 oil filter housing/cooler. No problems with fitment whatsoever! Direct drop-in! 😁🤙🏽 I also purchased a used 2014 Housing (Complete assy; Just needed the cooler & filter cap) from ebay & transferred the cap & cooler to the Dorman housing with the OE hardware & kit supplied cooler seals. Aloha! Craig A 😁🤙🏽

Thanks for the heads up about this Dorman 926-876. Just finished installing it on a 2014 Chrysler 200 S. It fit perfectly and seems to be a high quality part. No more leaks and no more check engine light. When cleaning all of the fluid from "the valley", be sure to suck the oil out of those threaded holes where the oil filter and cooler housing bolt into or the fluid will pressurize as you tighten the bolt which could throw off the torque reading or even strip the threads of the block.

Hey David thank you for taking the time to make such an informative video. We own a 2015 Chrysler T&C . We were on vacation about 2 and a half hours from home and you'd never guess what failed. Yes, you guessed, the Oil cooler assembly was leaking antifreeze all over the transmission housing. With that said I didn't have my full compliment of tools. But knowledge is everything. I went ahead and got the replacement cooler from the dealer in Atlantic city, installed it and got us home. After seeing your video, I will keep in mind should I have the issue again in the future to upgrade to the aluminum block. I was thinking that if there was a way they could modify the aluminum part So that the o-rings would not be crushed flat on the block and possibly use the snorkel portion. There would be more of a physical contact than just pressure from the torque of the bolts. Thank you again so much for all you do!

I changed the oil cooler housing on my 2011 grand Cherokee 3.6. The Dorman housing WILL fit. But, you need to buy a new cooler for the 2014+ years. Also a new oil filter and filter cap as the old ones will not fit. I went through four different caps before I found one to fit. Dorman had a problem with the manufacturer or something, so check first. My engine had 136,000 miles, so I figured while I was in there I had the injectors cleaned and replace spark plugs. Glad I did. Just for piece of mind I put on new oil temp and pressure sensors on. The housing itself was back ordered for 8 months. A tip for the grand Cherokee ease of installation is to take off the wiper motor and cowl. I am just a Shadetree mechanic, and was feeling pretty intimidated before doing the work. But it actually wasn’t so bad, and I’m happy to say my jeep is running with no oil leaks👍🏼

Here's a little trick. Because there's a reservoir in the engine that collects about a litre of oil, you might not realize your filter housing is leaking until it spills over. You've just been adding oil and not been aware of it. You can buy some time and avoid oil on the driveway by parking your Jeep on a 45 degree incline (I used a snow bank) and letting the oil drain out of the reservoir. Voila! No more oil on my driveway until I did the repair in the spring! 🙂

@tonycharron73
@tonycharron73 18 күн бұрын
@Mike_44 Hi Mike. Looking up your 2019 Pacifica, it already has the newer style oil filter than our 2012 required. The 2012 kit provided an orange filter cap to bring awareness to the oil filter change moving forward, which now would require a 2015+ model year filter. In your situation (being a later model yr 2019), no upgrade would be necessary for your oil filter number. There are actually a few different kits sold that can just be the aluminum housing only, or one with the complete kit with a "black" filter cap. The biggest reason for the leak, is over tightening the cap when doing oil changes. Good luck with your upgrade..... its not hard, just takes time. Be patent 😉👍🏻

@@tonycharron73 Thank you for the heads up, I really appreciate it. I will be tackling this job soon. Btw, is it possible to replace the oil cooler without having to drain the coolant or I absolutely have to? I was thinking of clamping the coolant line that feeds the oil cooler before removing it. What do you think?
@tonycharron73
@tonycharron73 18 күн бұрын
@Mike_44 clamping the coolant hose is totally an option. You may need to top off the coolant afterwards for what little has been lost in the old adapter. Ne mindful, that you will have air in the system from the new housing, so pay attention to things like oil and coolant levels and temps for the first few days, to make sure all is good 👍🏻

He said it could be the oil pressure sending sensor that's on the back of the oil filter housing. I'm thinking of replacing the whole thing with the aluminum housing. I had the plastic one replaced last year at the stealership $1200.

My wife had a 2013 Wrangler. Had an oil leak. Was not going to put the crappy plastic OFS back on. Bought the Doorman 2014 OFA for it. Plus a new 2014 cooler that would fit on this new housing.. New sensors. Install was easy. So new OFA and Cooler. $200. I also bought a 2014 filter for assembly but used the old 2013 cap. Pulled the guts out of the cap. Works just fine. I also bought Baxter Performance adapter for the OFA. So running a Royal Purple inverted Oil filter. No dry starts anymore. So the Doorman OFA does work with the 2013 3.6 Penstar. Just have to buy a 2014 cooler and gaskets.

I am in Ct so could be pretty quick if they have it. In the meanwhile, I have only lost a few ounces of coolant and oil, so I suspect it's more the O-rings than a cracked housing. I was also told to replace the O/P sender as cheap insurance. Seems they are prone to leaking through the plug area.

I had a 2013 Dodge Charger with the 3.6 and replaced the oil cooler assembly with a 2016 assembly and everything fits. The only difference was the oil filter. Everything worked. No more oil leaks. So this aluminum assembly should work on the first gen. Just make sure if you take your car for an oil change make sure they use the newer style oil filter. Fyi. I do all my own maintenance.

You replaced it with the Dorman or mopar? I’m not seeing how it wouldn’t fit either unless it’s because you need to use the aluminum cooler from the 2014-2016. In that case you could just purchase that part separately. I’d like to purchase the Dorman cooler but I don’t want to tear everything out to have it not fit and have to wait to order another especially when all these parts are about $300

I've now done this replacement 3 times. I have to thank you for putting this video out cause it saved me a ton of cash. The last Oil cooler lasted 3 years before it leaked. I finally upgraded to the aluminum oil cooler and I have my fingers crossed. My neighbors now think I'm an amazing mechanic and now they won't me to work on their cars.

When you do this. Change your oil. All that coolant goes right into the oil pan when you RnR the oil filter assembly. I'm definitely gonna get this when I do my spark plugs👍🏿

Awesome knowledge as always. I wish I would've know a little earlier. I just replaced this unit on 3 different cars in two weeks. I'm guessing the weather change and sitting through the pandemic played a part (cab co). Great video as always👍😎

Myself I guess I buy the plastic OEM for the gen 2 and put it on the gen1. Even if the Dorman may fit your model changing the cooler and have to reuse the old seal is a deal breaker if you can't get that gasket. And knowing how Dorman parts are I would just buy the factory one and save any problems. Thanks for the heads up David. I would also buy a new water hose that goes to the cooler myself since it is a pain to get in there. I get new spark plugs since your into it.

I'm guessing this vid is gonna be updated soon with the new 926-959 kit, as I was super excited to see it only to get the gut punch of no gen 1 coverage. Dorman 's site does list the 959 kit as covering gen1, but im gonna still touch base with them to ensure that. The new complete package looks absolutely awesome, hopefully go a long way in stemming some of the *MANY* Problems the gen1 engines in particular have. Yes, I'm still bitter over my 13 gen1 wiping itself outt at 110,000kms - not miles, kilometers. I've now got 50,000kms on the replacement engine, it's coming up on needing plugs anyway so if Dorman states this 959 kit is a perfect fit, my jeep is getting it no question. Thanx for the update!

Posted a pic on the kit that I received yesterday. Yeah the complete kit with cooler and orange oil filter cap is a one side fits all. Has everything you need just have to swap over the sensors and assemble the unit (comes in pieces). Orange cap is a warning that if used on a gen 1 that you will need a different oil filter then what the vehicle normally calls for. Will hopefully do a video on the new kit soon

Your one of the lucky few if you dont have a problem with this engine. So far with perfect maintenance I have had to have replaced, the computer at 50k, the heater line connector Plastic at 70k, rockers at 65k and now again at 125k for engine ticking.....All were dealership repaired. So either it is the dealerships not doing thorough maintenance repairs or the engine itself by design. Most was warranty covered but now out of warranty expected to be expensive to repair rocker arm issues again as dealer only warrants rocker arm repairs for two years. So sad I must say a design flaw should be repaired at no cost by the dealerships for the life of the vehicle.

David, thank you for this very instructive video. I am disappointed the Dorman part does not fit the 2013 3.6L VVT engine (which mine is.) I just replaced the by-pass valve on my last oil change - it snapped when I took the cover off to remove the oil filter. Fortunately, I had seen your video so ordered the new part.
