2011-2023 Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger Oil Filter Housing/Oil Cooler Replacement How-To

This video will show you how to replace the oil filter housing and oil cooler on the 2011-2023 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger equipped with the 3.6L Pentastar engine. This is a common failure point on these engines the factory plastic housing cracks or starts leaking over time so in this video I installed the upgraded all aluminum housing from Dorman. Parts and products used in this video were purchased from Amazon and Walmart and I have provided links below.

Thank you!

Just completed this project with the assistance of my 12yr old daughter. We followed step by step and got ‘er done! I’m not a mechanic and was prepared for the worst. I legit made peace we might have lost our vehicle for attempting this project. Car starts. Runs GREAT. No delay in throttle as it was before. Not sure all that was effected but I can definitely feel the performance difference. My baby’s back 🙏🏾😊🌟🏆 Thank you for the time you put into this and the easy-to-follow instructions bro. I watched a few other videos on this but didn’t give me the confidence to attempt it until I came across your video the morning I decided to take the car in. That’s how clutch it was for me bro. I watched it 3xs taking notes lmao Commented that day and took it apart yesterday. Put it together today and boom we back in business. You saved me so much money I really couldn’t afford to spend rn. Thank you fr fr and wishing much success to you and your family. Definitely getting a Christmas card lol

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Thanks brother I appreciate it! You know it’s comments like yours that keep me motivated to continue doing videos like this. Just knowing I was able to help someone out like that is awesome because I’m not saying all repair shops are shady but there is a lot out there and it’s all about the money anymore and they like to take advantage of people.

[@hkiceca]

I checked the cooler 2 years ago. It did not leak at the time. I replaced the seals since I had them on hand. I just replaced the filter cap because one of the 4 tabs holding the bypassing valve was broken. The old cap is still available to function, but I like to replace it. I have been concerning the cooler failure. For a 8-year-old caravan, I am still not able to make a decision to pick the Mopar one or after market one with aluminum housing if the time comes to replace the cooler because the Mopar one is $225+tax CAD with sensors and Dorman will be over $300 CAD without sensors.

Great video! I did this job on my 2015 Dodge Caravan in January 2024 and used the Dorman unit. It is now made in Malaysia. Also did all 24 rocker arms as a click just started. No cam damage. That was a big job! Took almost 10 hours.

[@Mopar3.6LV6]

Wow. Thank you Thank you Thank you for posting this amazing step by step video. I’m looking to tackle this repair soon. I think I see some oil but not sure if I maybe spilled some when I did my last oil change or maybe I over tightened the oil cap and cracked the housing. Going with the Dorman as well. I’ll have to get a new torque wrench for in lbs. the one I have only goes down to 20 ft lbs. I’ll also have to get a set of Torx E since Torx T won’t work on those bolts for the lower intake manifold. Also planning to do the spark plugs while I’m in there. Car currently has 66k miles so they still have a ways to go but don’t wanna have to do this again u less I have to. Again, thank you for this video.

[@christianalejandroflores8501]

These video series for Chrysler 300 are gold!! I did myself the replacement and upgrade of the oil cooler, thermostat/coolant pipe and led headlights almost two weeks ago. I saw the oil cooler replacement video several times, the process looks more intimidating in video than in person. I took the opportunity to replace the coolant reseirvoir since the antifreeze was drained. One thing that happened to me is that the A/C did not work after finishing the work, I needed to replace the fuse 12 A/C clutch. My car is a Chrysler 300 2015, these videos were very helpful. I am planning to replace my coils and spark plugs in the next months. Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for the tip

[@MoparDan]

Thanks Blue Collar Garage for this helpful video. I’m going to be doing this job carefully myself on my ‘12 Chrysler 200 Touring convertible because I don’t want to take chances with someone else’s workmanship or pay the Chrysler stealership a huge amount of money that I can’t afford. Goddamn Chrysler for making this part out of plastic! For whoever reads this comment there is another improvement offered by Baxter Performance that converts the Pentastar engines to a spin on filter. This helps eliminate momentary dry starts by keeping oil available to the cam areas which over time can cause wear with each starting of this otherwise well designed engine.

[@kathyb.4327]

Do you plan on doing a video on how to change rockers/lifters in the 3.6L Pentstar engines? I bought the rockers so I could change em out during this job but I didn’t do em cause I didn’t like any of the tutorials by other people that were out there. There’s just something about how you do these jobs. You make the jobs doable and your videos are so perfect to follow along with. You have a way of instilling the motivation and self confidence that’s needed in order to get the job(s) done. Also, any recommendations on getting the petcock/radiator plug back in? It came all the way out when I turned it. I just went a bought a new one just in case I damaged the one that came out. I am really struggling to get the plug in rn. It’s the only step I have left to do (besides putting the new coolant in).

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Unfortunately I don’t have a video on that right now but I’m sure I will in the future seems how that is a common issue on these motors. My daughter actually sold her Chrysler 300 so I’ll have to wait on a customers vehicle to do this. The radiator drain should just kind to of snap in and then screw in.

Hello, do you have to drain the oil also? When you change the filter housing?

Is it worth buying new sensors when doing this project or is it okay to use the existing ones? And if so, would that require any new programming with new sensors?

[@Cowboy340]

Outstanding. Thank you. Are you satisfied with the Dorman unit overall?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Yeah no complaints so far. Best part of it was that it’s made here in the USA except for the orange cap which is made in china.

[@DarkMessiah499]

Quick question, I did this last summer. If I recall, there was coolant in that valley, as well as oil. I'm chasing a p06de and Im trying to find a coolant leak. I know the coolant is leaking from the smell of coolant when Im running. Did you have the coolant pool at all?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

No I didn’t have any coolant pooling up. Did you check the thermostat housing and coolant pipe coming off that? Those are two common areas that leak. Can you take a flashlight and see if any coolant is pooling up under the intake? As for the p06de I believe that is an oil pressure issue. Does it have any running issues and how many miles are on it? Hoping it’s not an oil pump issue. I’m wanting if it’s an issue with the pressure sending unit and if the coolant smell has something to do with it to where the coolant corroded the oil pressure sending unit connector. Do you have any way of testing your oil pressure?

[@DarkMessiah499]

@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE 170k. I replaced the plastic thermostat housing with an aluminum one. I put dye in the cooling system and the only bright spot I saw was on the bolt coming up out of it. No evidence anywhere else beside the smell, coolant loss, and coolant temp going up towards 260. The reason I got here is I got the p06de code, and went ahead and just put it an oil cooler I had rather than just change the pressure sensor. It runs fine. But the check engine light was driving me insane (I'm weird like that. I was working thru a checklist for that code. Last July I got an oil change and the problem cleared up. I check the oil and yet the tech said I had been down more than a quart and a half, despite the dipstick always reading over filled. I guess I'll do an oil change and see if the code clears. I'm curious if there's an issue with checking the oil level. But excluding that, it's gonna be the pump itself, which includes the solenoid. I appreciate you taking all the time to answer. Oh, and other than the car's gauge, I don't have the means to verify the exact oil pressure.

[@jhonrubio0202]

My oil filter cap won’t fit cause is touching with the lower intake , what am I doing wrong ?

[@E-Baby3814]

Do you have to change your oil when doing the job?

[@Mike_44]

Is it possible to do this job without removing the coolant? At 52k miles, I need to do this job on my ‘19 Pacifica. I have been doing research on the forums, and many folks complain that the Dorman aluminum unit “has defects, it’s not up to spec compared to the oem one”, etc. There seem to be many Chinese Amazon copycats now for 1/3 of the Dorman unit. What do you think?? Thank you for this video btw!

[@giovanimiron]

Question. For the oil filter housing did you remove the oil from the engine to remove the oil filter housing or it’s okay to remove the housing without having to take out the oil

[@premiummelons1512]

The oil collects at the bottom in the sump, so you can change this without changing the oil, but its probably recommended that you do so anyways

[@farky50]

Great camera work. Thx for showing all the stupid angles as best as possible!! We have to flush the radiator with this job? I'm looking at a 200 2015. But I guess it's cause oil can get into the radiator from pulling the cooler?

Do I have to drain the coolant and oil prior to starting the job? I have to do it on my 2017 300

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

You don’t have to drain the whole cooling system but you’ll want to drain out at least a 1/4 of it that way it doesn’t make a huge mess when disconnecting the coolant line from the cooler.

[@dcavalli9]

I drained the radiator, but some left over coolant keeps coming up from the holes at the bottom of the engine bay and spilling over. It's not a flood like it was before, but more of an annoyance. Is this normal? Should I just soak up the coolant in the holes and then install the new oil filter housing?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Yeah that’s normal there will still be coolant in the engine block the only way of getting all that out is by pulling the block coolant plugs. Just soak it up and install the new filter housing and you’ll be good.

[@teeturn1987]

Replaced 2014 oil filter housing ... got it flushed a few days after and the oil coolant mixture is still there ...how many times do i need to get it flushed? And is it safe to drive?

[@mikepuk8224]

It will be there for a while, a small amount of coolant in the oil (and I mean a really small amount) won’t hurt anything. Sounds like it could be another issue such as a head gasket (which I hope for you not to have that) .

[@lalitchaudhary4376]

Thank you . I did everything as shown in video. But i got now check engine light with code P0441 ? I check all the connectors so what you think whats the problem now in my car?

Did Chrysler fix the oil cooler design in the newer 2021+ models? Or do they still use plastic ?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Can that oil go dripping all the way down to the engine where the transmission is located ?

Yes especially while parking on an incline like a driveway. The cooler is located in the valley of the engine and the oil slowly works its way towards the back of the engine leaking down the transmission bell housing making it look like the transmission is leaking.

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

I’m wondering if they didn’t get the fuel line that feeds the injectors all the way clicked in. It’s in the video at 43:41 or I wonder if they reused the plenum gaskets on the lower intake instead of replacing with new. Is there anyway you can take off the engine cover and reach around the back of the intake and find that fuel line and just give it a pull to see if it comes loose?

[@Cowboy340]

Thank you for the heads up. After reviewing your video again I contacted the shop and had the car towed to them. Yes, the fuel line clamp you mentioned to be aware of had not locked in place well enough therefore it was leaking badly. They discovered that to be the problem as well. Pick it up tomorrow.

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

I went with Dorman because they offer it in the full aluminum plus it’s made in the USA. Don’t know of anyone else who has installed it because it’s kind of a newer product to help solve the mopar plastic housing failures.

I’m having trouble. My o ring keeps leaking after a week or two

Or where did you buy your torque wrench bar

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

It’s just a 12” 1/4 extension.

Does the oil leak down onto the transmission on drivers side? Curious.

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Yes that’s usually where you’ll find it leaking.
