The K&N 77 Series high-flow performance intake kit (part 77-1572KS) is a vehicle-specific replacement for the factory air intake on the 3.6L V6 in the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It pairs a mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube with a conical, oiled cotton gauze filter that can be washed and reused. Compared with a cheaper universal cold-air kit, this design is built around the Grand Cherokee's own airbox location, which means fewer fitment compromises and less fabrication. Buyers searching for a 3.6L Grand Cherokee cold air intake, a reusable cotton filter upgrade, or a 2016 Jeep V6 intake that keeps stock engine computer compatibility will find the core details here.
Before ordering, confirm your exact model year. Listings disagree on the Grand Cherokee year range, so verify fitment against your VIN with the manufacturer. The kit is not legal for sale or use in California or other states that follow CARB emissions standards, so check your state's rules before buying. Because the filter is washable, owners can clean and re-oil it instead of replacing it at every service interval.
This is a bolt-on upgrade that generally requires only basic hand tools and no cutting or power tools. Set aside time to disconnect the factory intake and reconnect the mass airflow sensor cleanly, and check every clamp and coupler for a tight seal before starting the engine to avoid unmetered air leaks.
