The 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 requires SAE 5w-40 full synthetic oil with a capacity of 6 quarts. This oil is crucial for keeping the internal engine components well-lubricated and clean, ensuring smooth operation of your vehicle. An oil change for your Challenger typically costs between $140 and $160 for both labor and parts, and it is recommended to have this service done every 3,000 miles. Signs to watch for while driving that indicate the need for an oil change include engine noise, ticking sounds, transmission shifting problems, shaking at idle, and decreased fuel efficiency. You should also be on the lookout for external signs such as smoke instead of regular exhaust and oil leaks under your parked vehicle.

    Hmm, a Dodge Challenger with the SRT8 6.1L engine uses 0w-40 Mobil One oil as indicated on the oil fill cap. It requires a capacity of 7 to 8 quarts.

    Rebecca and John are complete fools! QUIG is spot on. It's parked in the driveway at this moment, and the factory oil filler cap clearly shows the marking 0-W40.

    The 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is best suited for 5w40 synthetic oil according to the manufacturer's recommendation.
