What's wrong with the Jeep Grand Cherokee's particulate filter?
Years 2004-2010

Answer

The Jeep Grand Cherokee has no problems with the particulate filter different from those of other diesels: when the car is regenerating it is a good idea to have it take a ride at a constant speed for at least ten minutes, until the fan turns off, signal that the regeneration has finished. If you really don't have time to take it for a ride, let's keep it on at least until it has finished regenerating. This way we can be sure that the particulate filter will not clog.
