Stay on top of oil replacements by visiting your Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealer regularly and talking to the mechanics in depth about your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM vehicle’s needs. That’s a sure way to keep your car’s engine nice and healthy.
Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and RAM vehicles are manufactured using MOPAR parts. Because of this, they have similar oil replacement requirements. To keep your CDJR car in the best health, you should replace the oil in it after every 5,000 miles. Some vehicles need their oil changed a little less frequently than that, and the owner’s manual that came with your car has information on that.
You can also talk to your mechanic, as they have expertise on your car’s make and model. They can also gauge the condition of your engine and talk to you about your driving habits. They can use that information to make an oil replacement frequency recommendation based on your specific needs.
Why Changing Your Oil Is So Important
Old oil’s texture will change, it can start to smell bad, and it can damage your engine. Old oil can become too thin to lubricate your engine effectively, or it can become gritty and clog up your engine’s parts. That shortens your engine’s lifespan.
Having poor-quality oil cycling through your engine can also reduce your car’s gas mileage, which is both annoying and expensive. So, to keep your engine in good health and reduce fuel costs, changing your oil when necessary is essential.
Signs You Need to Get To Your Chrysler Dealer for an Oil Replacement ASAP
Low Oil Level
Check your oil level often. Many newer cars let you do this through a smartphone app or your car’s center console, but you’ll need to check the level using the dipstick in older models. If the level is low when you check on it, then you should head to the dealer for either a top-off or a change.
Dirty Oil
Inspect your oil to check its quality regularly. If it feels gritty between your fingers, then it’s time for a change. If it’s black, unusually thick, too runny, or smells burned, then you’ll also need to get it changed.
Loud Engine
If your engine gets louder, then it’s probably time to change the oil. The engine might also start making funny noises, such as knocking.
