Appreciate it, but you claimed it was on this forum? I’ve looked at every thread…you sure about that? 

SORRY, I need better eyes or enlarge the print size on my screen. Posted manuals are up to 2016.  Yes I now see yours is a 2018, and I'm KINDA SURE that the 2.4 in your vehicle is the tiger shark {nickname} and not the older world{nickname} motor. 

A lot of SIMILARITIES, in procedures but a different cylinder head design, so yes you're going to have to find a manual for that motor.

There are many different STELLANTIS models that use this motor, and main torque specs and teardown instructions would be the same for your Journey. Only differences would probably be intake manifold  orientation.

 

Again sorry for my poor eyes, good luck on your big job.

All data is a paid log in is what mechanic shops use, covers all vehicles, could get for a few months.

 

The tiger shark engines didn’t come out until 2013, discountinued in 2021.  They have a separate hydraulic operated valve system and we’re bad for oil consumption. Journey is world engine design, less power but more reliable, variable valve timing (cam phasing) and an egr valve.

Thanks for setting me right, I should have know better on the "multi air" motor. My future daughter in law has a 2018 Compass with this motor, granted I've only looked briefly under the hood 2X.

 

Also when folks add on to a thread, I guess I need to look closer to their personal info to see what year they have. The OP had a 2015 and Dsbennett315 has a 2018. I initially responded correctly to the original poster.

So what is exactly the difference between the multi air tiger shark vs the regular? If I can still use the manual for a 2018 compass, that would be great

A FEW of the membership here are former auto techs or avid DIYers, the forum is not designed or run as factory database.

For engine and most transmission work the manual for a Compass should work for you. Electrical and brakes/ body areas need Journey manuals.

WHAT are you looking to do?
