Engine Oil Viscosity (SAE Grade) – 5.7L Engine

Chrysler 300 / Chrysler 300 Owners Manual / Maintaining Your Vehicle / Maintenance Procedures / Engine Oil / Engine Oil Viscosity (SAE Grade) – 5.7L Engine

 

SAE 5W-20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil improves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy.

The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your engine. For information on engine oil filler cap location, refer to “Engine Compartment” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.

NOTE:
Vehicles equipped with a 5.7L engine must use SAE 5W-20 oil. Failure to do so may result in improper operation of the Multi-Displacement System (MDS). Refer to “Multi-Displacement System” in “Starting and Operating” for further information.

Lubricants that do not have both, the engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade number should not be used.
