The 2009 Dodge Journey requires 4.26 liters (or 4.5 quarts) of SAE 5W-20 engine oil, a very popular synthetic fluid that boosts performance, protects the engine, and optimizes fuel economy regardless of weather conditions. Dodge suggests changing this fluid every 6,000 miles or 6 months, but you may need to do it more frequently based on your driving habits and local conditions. Engine oil lubricates, cools, and guards your engine against corrosion, so it's crucial to monitor it regularly to avoid costly repairs. While the average cost for this service in a Journey ranges from $140 to $160, labor accounts for $40 to $60 of that amount. Taking on the oil change yourself can help you save some money in the process.
