You want to keep your pickup in great shape on every Monroe drive, and that means using the right RAM 1500 oil for the engine.
Discover all of the details about the recommended RAM 1500 oil type thanks to our detailed guide from the service team at Benoit Motors.
What Is the RAM 1500 Oil Type Recommended by the Manufacturer?
The manufacturer recommends MaxPro SAE 0W-20 full synthetic oil for the 3.6L V6 gasoline engine has the RAM 1500 oil type you need. Install SAE 5W-20 full synthetic oil if your truck has the larger 5.7L V8 HEMI gasoline engine. When you own a pickup with the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine, the right RAM 1500 oil type you'll need is the 5W-40 synthetic blend.
No matter what oil you need, the best RAM 1500 oil type comes from Mopar, the OEM parts supplier for the entire RAM line. The manufacturer also recommends its RAM 1500 oil filter for every oil change for best results.
Synthetic vs. Conventional RAM 1500 Oil Type
You have a choice between conventional (regular) and full synthetic when you change your RAM 1500 oil. Our service team highly recommends full synthetic oil because it lasts longer, lowers your overall costs, and keeps your engine cleaner while preventing expensive repairs later.
Synthetic oil's interval between oil changes is 7,500 to 10,000 miles rather than 3,000 to 5,000 miles for conventional oil. Your RAM 1500 oil life monitor will tell you when it's time for an oil change near Alexandria.
OEM Mopar parts, including MaxPro oil and a RAM 1500 oil filter, are best for your pickup because they meet the manufacturer's standards. Also, having the right RAM 1500 oil filter and oil type can help you maintain your truck for as long as you own your truck.
