Jeep Compass Oil Change Interval & Oil Type
Compiled & reviewed by Nikolai Tsyrenov · Updated 2026-06-25
When to change the oil on a 2017-2024 (MP) Jeep Compass, and what oil it takes.
| Oil change interval | Oil monitor ~8,000-10,000 mi; severe sooner |
|---|---|
| Engine / oil | 2.4L Tigershark NA (or 2.0L turbo, 2023+); 0W-20 synthetic; 6-speed / 9-speed / 8-speed auto |
| Oil filter | Replace with every oil change |
Jeep Compass note: The 2.4 Tigershark is modest and chain-driven; keep oil on time (some consumption complaints). The 2023 redesign moved to a 2.0 turbo with a smoother 8-speed.
