New to the forum...and JK's. Just got a 4 door 6 spd wrangler "Mountain" and am lovin it. Curious if anyone has tried fully synthetic oil and have pro's or con's.

Yo! ffej49

Yup for while now, full synthetic in all, had no problem, keeps the engine cleaner but cost more!,

Re: Synthetic oil

Full synthetic in my Jeep, cost may be a bit higher but it's offset by the extended drain intervals. In my case 12000km for synthetic compared to 5000km for conventional oil.

Re: Synthetic oil

The cost benefit seems an easy choice. I've heard also about new filters that extend the life of full synthetic even further.

Thanks for the input.
