The rear differential fluid specified for the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 is SAE 75W-140 GL-5. It is recommended to change the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles to prevent issues. Neglecting fluid changes can result in strange noises emanating from the transmission, as well as poor performance. A malfunctioning torque converter can also lead to difficulties. The transmission is a vital component of the vehicle, and problems are bound to occur eventually. Delayed shifts can cause acceleration problems, potentially resulting in slipping or shuddering. Rough gear changes may occur, along with jerking or difficulty shifting gears. If there is a transmission fluid leak, prompt repair is necessary.
The Valvoline 5-quart 5w-20 synthetic motor oil is the specified fluid for the differential in a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500.
