In America, the recommended oil type and capacity for the 2017 Ram ProMaster with a 3.0 L 4-cylinder engine is 5w-30 and 9.5 quarts, respectively. It is important to replace your oil periodically, ideally every 5,000 to 10,000 miles, to avoid engine issues. Using high-quality oil is essential for the engine to operate smoothly. Neglecting to change the oil can lead to engine failure, indicated by symptoms like a burning smell and reduced gas mileage. If you hear knocking noises from the engine, it should be addressed promptly to prevent potential catastrophic events like engine failure.
The 2017 Ram ProMaster suggests using synthetic oil of SAE 5W-30 for its 4-cylinder engine and 5W-20 for the V6. The 3.0L 4-cylinder engine requires 9.5 quarts of oil, while the 3.6L V6 needs 5.9 quarts, each including a new filter.
