Jeep Wrangler: Diesel Exhaust Fluid / System Overview
This vehicle is equipped with a Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) injection system and a Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst to meet the
emission requirements.
The DEF injection system consists of the
following components:
- DEF tank
- DEF pump
- DEF injector
- Electronically-heated DEF Lines
- NOx sensors
- Temperature sensors
- SCR catalyst
The DEF injection system and SCR catalyst
enable the achievement of diesel emissions
requirements; while maintaining outstanding
fuel economy, drivability, torque and power
ratings.
NOTE:
- Your vehicle is equipped with a DEF injection
system. You may occasionally hear an

freezing weather, where applicable). If the
engine, battery (if equipped), intercooler (if
equipped), and MGU (if equipped) coolant is
dirty or rusty in appearance, the system should
be drained, flushed and refilled with fresh OAT
coolant (conforming to MS...
