The 2011 Jeep Compass had a base 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, but you could also upgrade to a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine. Both models require 4.5 US quarts of oil with the filter. The 2.0L engine uses 5W-20 oil, while the 2.4L engine can use either 5W-20 or 5W-30 oil. You should change the oil every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. Refilling the fluids in this vehicle is affordable, costing between $20 and $30.
The proper oil for a 2011 Jeep Compass is the SAE 5W-20 with the API Certification Seal. The engine can hold 4.5 US quarts (4.2 liters) of oil, and the oil filler cap indicates the recommended viscosity for the engine.
