The 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 is fitted with a 4-speed automatic transmission that necessitates the use of synthetic ATF+4 fluid. With a fluid capacity of 5 US quarts, this transmission requires less fluid than comparable trucks, making it more cost-effective for fluid changes, which should be done every 60,000 miles. If you opt to do the fluid change yourself, expect to spend around $30 to $50 on fluid costs. Alternatively, having a mechanic perform the task will likely cost you between $150 and $190, inclusive of parts and labor.
