ENGINE FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
6.4L GASOLINE ENGINE
6.7L DIESEL ENGINE
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine CoolantWe recommend using Mopar® Antifreeze/Coolant 10–Year/150,000 Mile
(240,000 km) Formula OAT (Organic Additive Technology).
Engine Oil We recommend using Mopar® API Certified SAE 0W-40 Full Synthetic Engine Oil which meets the
requirements of the manufacturer Material Standard MS-A0921. Equivalent full synthetic SAE 0W-40
engine oil can be used but must have the API Donut trademark Ú
page 354.
Fuel Selection 87 Octane (R+M)/2 Method, 0-15% Ethanol (Do not use E-85).
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine CoolantWe recommend using Mopar® Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile
(240,000 km) Formula OAT (Organic Additive Technology).
Engine Oil In ambient temperatures above 0°F (-18°C), we recommend using 10W-30 engine oil such as Mopar®,
Shell Rotella and Shell Rimula that meets the manufacturer Material Standard MS-10902 and the API CK-4
engine oil category is required. Products meeting Cummins® CES 20081 may also be used. The
identification of these engine oils is typically located on the back of the oil container.
In ambient temperatures below 0°F (-18°C), we recommend using 5W-40
synthetic engine oil such as
Mopar®, Shell Rotella and Shell Rimula that meets the manufacturer Material Standard MS-10902 and the
API CK-4 engine oil category is required.
Fuel Filters We recommend using Mopar® Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating (engine mounted filter). Must meet
5 micron rating (chassis mounted filter).
Using a fuel filter that does not meet the manufacturer’s filtration
and water separating requirements can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.
Crankcase Ventilation Filter We recommend using Mopar® CCV Filter.
