There are several engine options for the 2014 Ram 1500, and the amount and type of oil needed will depend on the engine you have. The 3.0 L V6 Ecodiesel engine requires 10.5 quarts of 5W-40 full synthetic diesel oil with a filter change. If you have the 3.6 L V6, you'll need 6 quarts of SAE 5W-20, and for the 5.7 L V8, you'll need 7 quarts of SAE 5W-20. If your vehicle is used for heavy-duty work, you may consider using a product like Valvoline High Mileage Max Life to maintain engine performance as the mileage increases.
