Mine says 5w20. However, I personally use Penzioil Platnum 5W30. I think the fram # is 3600. However, I would recomend using the Bosch Premeum filter or the OEM Mopar filter. NAPA GOLD is also a really good filter. Im not knocking Frams, just do not personally like them. rodneyw71 06-26-2007, 12:47 AM How many Quarts does it take, I use Valvoline, is NAPA's oil any good, I don't want to go to two stores to get the stuff I need eltupac 06-26-2007, 11:00 AM I used 4.5 qts. It says 5 in the manual, but my needle stays put in the middle at 4.5. vaughn35 05-10-2008, 05:50 AM yea im on my seocnd oil change and i have been puting 5 quarts....i decided to check the stick and it is reading almost a quarter passed the full mark...something for everyone to check..... im going to drain some out today marv02 05-10-2008, 10:21 AM 2Nd that Fram you paying for the name there lot better filter for the money Napa Gold is what I Use and Mobil One oil.
