The 2011 Dodge Durango takes 5W-30 oil and requires 6 quarts. It's important to change the oil regularly, typically every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Neglecting this maintenance can lead to engine problems. Using high-quality oil is essential for optimal engine performance. Failure to change the oil can result in issues such as a strong burning odor, which should be addressed promptly to avoid potential engine damage. Inadequate oil can cause the engine to fail and lead to poor gas mileage, as well as unusual knocking sounds.
