JEEP 552-84-064 engine (2014–2020) – Specs, Problems & Compatibility Database

The Jeep 552 84 064 is a 1,956 cc, inline‑four turbocharged diesel engine produced between 2014 and 2020. It features a 16‑valve DOHC layout with a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) and common‑rail direct injection, delivering outputs of 103 kW (140 PS) and 350 Nm of torque. The high-pressure common-rail system enables precise fuel metering for responsive performance and efficient operation.

Fitted to the Renegade and Compass models, this engine was engineered for robust torque delivery suitable for light off-roading and highway cruising. Emissions compliance was achieved through a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with AdBlue injection, meeting Euro 6b standards from launch and Euro 6d‑TEMP for later production units.

One documented engineering focus is the durability of the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler and valve assembly under sustained high-load conditions. This is addressed in Stellantis Service Information Bulletin SIB‑12‑03‑19, which details revised component specifications and cleaning procedures for engines produced after June 2016 to mitigate potential clogging and overheating.

Compliance Note:

Production years 2014–2016 meet Euro 6b standards; 2017–2020 models meet Euro 6d-TEMP compliance (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/8406).

552-84-064 Technical Specifications

The Jeep 552 84 064 is a 1,956 cc inline‑four turbocharged diesel engineered for compact SUVs (2014–2020). It combines common-rail direct injection with a variable geometry turbocharger to deliver strong, low-end torque and efficient long-distance cruising. Designed to meet Euro 6b and Euro 6d-TEMP standards, it balances performance with stringent emissions control.

Practical Implications

The VGT turbo provides strong, accessible torque ideal for towing and off-road traction but requires strict adherence to 20,000 km oil change intervals using the specified low-SAPS 5W-30 oil to protect the DPF and SCR systems. The high-pressure injection system demands ultra-low sulfur diesel (EN 590) to prevent injector wear. Engines produced before June 2016 may benefit from the revised EGR cooler and valve components detailed in Stellantis SIB 12 03 19 to enhance long-term reliability under high thermal loads.

Data Verification Notes

Oil Specs: Requires Fiat 9.55535-DS1 or ACEA C2 5W-30 specification (Stellantis SIB 12 03 19). Critical for DPF/SCR system longevity.

Emissions: Euro 6b certification applies to 2014–2016 models; Euro 6d-TEMP for 2017–2020 (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/8406).

Power Ratings: Measured under SAE J1349 standards. Output is consistent with EN 590 fuel quality (Stellantis TIS Doc. ENG-PWR-01).

552-84-064 Compatible Models

The Jeep 552 84 064 was used across Jeep's Renegade and Compass platforms with transverse mounting and is not licensed to other manufacturers. This engine received platform-specific adaptations—reinforced exhaust hangers in the Compass for off-road durability—and from 2017 the updated MY18 models adopted revised EGR and SCR calibration for Euro 6d-TEMP, creating minor ECU and hardware interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.

Identification Guidance

Locate the engine code stamped on the front face of the cylinder block, near the timing cover (Stellantis TIS ENG-552-ID). The 8th digit of the VIN typically encodes the engine type for Stellantis vehicles (consult TIS for current decoding). Pre-2017 models have a silver engine cover with 'Multijet II' branding; post-2017 units may have a black cover. Critical differentiation from petrol variants: The 552 84 064 features a visible turbocharger, DPF, and AdBlue tank filler cap. Service parts, particularly for the EGR and SCR systems, require production date verification due to revisions implemented per SIB 12 03 19.

Common Reliability Issues - JEEP 552-84-064

The 552 84 064's primary reliability focus is the EGR system, with documented cases of cooler failure or valve clogging under high-temperature, high-load conditions. Stellantis engineering reports indicate revisions in mid-2016 improved durability, while adherence to specified oil and AdBlue quality remains critical for long-term DPF and SCR health.

EGR cooler or valve failure
Symptoms: Loss of power, engine overheating, coolant loss, illuminated MIL, specific EGR-related DTCs.
Cause: Internal cracking of the EGR cooler or carbon buildup jamming the EGR valve, often due to sustained high exhaust temperatures or infrequent DPF regenerations.
Fix: Replace EGR cooler/valve assembly with latest OEM-specified part and update ECU calibration per service bulletin SIB 12 03 19; ensure DPF system is functioning correctly.
DPF clogging or regeneration faults
Symptoms: Reduced power, increased fuel consumption, dashboard warning light, frequent or failed regeneration cycles.
Cause: Short-trip driving preventing complete passive regeneration, poor fuel quality, or malfunctioning temperature/pressure sensors.
Fix: Perform forced regeneration via diagnostic tool; if clogged, clean or replace DPF; verify sensor operation and driving patterns.
AdBlue system faults (injector, pump, sensor)
Symptoms: MIL illumination, countdown to engine start prohibition, specific SCR/AdBlue system DTCs.
Cause: Crystallization of AdBlue in lines or injector, pump failure, or faulty NOx sensors preventing proper emissions control.
Fix: Diagnose specific fault code; clean or replace affected AdBlue components (injector, pump, sensors) with OEM parts per procedure; ensure use of certified AdBlue fluid.
Turbocharger actuator or wastegate issues
Symptoms: Whistling noise, boost pressure faults, lack of power, overboost/underboost codes.
Cause: Carbon buildup or mechanical wear in the VGT actuator linkage or vacuum lines, preventing precise vane control.
Fix: Clean VGT mechanism and actuator; if faulty, replace turbocharger assembly or actuator with OEM part per procedure; check vacuum lines for leaks.
