The Dodge Ram 1500 V8 requires SAE 5w-20 oil for optimal performance. Regularly changing your oil can help prolong your engine's life, improve gas mileage, and enhance performance. Routine oil and filter changes are important for removing particles and sludge from the engine, preventing potential issues. Neglecting oil changes can lead to engine problems as the oil becomes thinner and abrasive, causing wear on essential engine parts. Synthetic oil is recommended for superior performance, as it reduces friction and provides better engine protection. It is safe to switch between synthetic and conventional oils without causing harm to the engine. Synthetic blend oils offer a combination of synthetic and conventional properties.
