Depending on the engine size you choose for your 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee, you will have one of three different options. The smallest engine available is the 3.6L V6, and the largest is the 6.4L V8, with the 5.7L V8 falling in between. The 3.6L engine requires 5.9 quarts of SAE 5W-20 full synthetic motor oil, while the 5.7L engine requires 7.0 quarts of the same type. For the largest engine, the 6.4L, you will need 7.0 quarts of SAE 0W-40 oil. In emergency situations, you can substitute SAE 5W-30 for SAE 5W-20 and SAE 5W-40 for SAE 0W-40, but it is not advisable for long-term use. Using oil with incorrect viscosity can create friction, which may cause premature engine wear and eventual failure.
For a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the recommended viscosity grade is SAE 5W-20. Jeep suggests using engine oils that meet SAE viscosity requirements and have the API Certification Seal. The engine oil capacity is 5.9 quarts for the 3.6L engine and 7.0 quarts for the 5.7L engine.
