    I replaced one of those on my ex- girlfriends car it was leaking oil all over the transmission at the same time replaced spark plugs, new fell pro air intake manifold gaskets, is been 2 years no problems. Next problem no heat, actuators for heat are working, I am thinking plugged heater core, I was like you now what in Florida you don't need heat. :-)

    Beware of new old stock parts of the older revisions of oil filter housings still being sold. I never use a torque wrench when replacing the oil filter housing. Before changing my oil for the first time, I marked the lid and the housing with a white marker. I tighten it the exact same amount so that the marks line up every time I replace the oil filter. This is a foolproof way to prevent damage without using a torque wrench.

    • @OnlineMechanicTips
      @OnlineMechanicTips  3 роки тому +1

      Great idea. In some cases FCA would call the parts department and make them destroy all the old revision parts. We just threw away about 5 trailer hitch brand new for some reason.

      @@zackmc832 Can I ask you how are you so sure its a misfire and not a rough idle? Also, because you have replaced the secondary ignition., you may be left with simply doing a compression test. The reason I asked about ticking noise because you very well could have a broken rocker are causing the valves not to open and close properly. You may have no choice but to remove that rear valve cover and look at the valve train parts.

    I had the same leak on my 2015 Grand Caravan (newer style oil filter) as well. It was at around 135k miles. I replaced just the o rings at the bottom of the base and that fixed it. I always use torque wrench to not overtighten the plastic housing. What are your thoughts on aftermarket oil filter housings compared to Mopar OEM? Do you have any experience with them? Would you recommend installing aftermarket if the factory one ever goes bad?
