In 2006, the Dodge Stratus had a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine as its base model, with an optional upgrade to a 2.7L V6 engine. Both engine options require synthetic 5W-30 motor oil. The main difference in terms of oil capacity between the two engines is that the standard engine holds 5 US quarts including the filter, while the upgraded engine holds 5.5 US quarts with the filter. Getting an oil change for this vehicle at a shop would typically cost between $110 and $140.
The 2006 Dodge Stratus should use 5w-20 synthetic motor oil as per the manufacturer's recommendation.
