Dodge Oil Change FAQs

How do I know when my Dodge needs its oil changed?

If you hear knocking or grinding noises from your engine while it's running, it may not be properly lubricated and an oil change is necessary. Neglecting these noises can result in permanent engine damage. If you also notice a burning smell inside your car or your "check engine" light comes on, it's probably time your Dodge gets an oil change.

Should I have my oil filter replaced when I change my oil?

Yes, after an oil change, an old filter will be saturated with undesirable contaminants. At Dodge, our expert technicians understand the importance of changing your oil filter every time you get your oil changed to ensure your engine's always running at its best.

How often should my vehicle get an oil change?

An oil change every 7,500 miles is generally recommended for modern vehicles. Still, it's essential to consider other factors, such as driving habits, oil quality, and age of the car, that may influence this.

What does clean motor oil look like?

The color of motor oil shifts based on how long it's been inside your car's engine and any ongoing mechanical issues. New oil will typically have an amber hue, while older oil will appear darker.
