The 2006 Dodge Charger requires fully synthetic motor oil with a 5w-20 viscosity for its 2.7 liter v6 engine, holding 6.0 US quarts. The vehicle's 3.5 liter v6 engine needs 10w-30 oil and also holds up to 6 quarts. You can purchase these oils at various retail locations, automotive stores, or online from reliable sellers. Prices range from $4.16 to $14.32 per bottle. If you opt for professional assistance to change the oil, expect to pay between $52 and $135 for labor. It's recommended to use a funnel costing $1 to $3 to help prevent spills during the oil change process. It is advised to change the oil every 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first.

In the 2006 Dodge Charger, the base 2.7L V6 engine requires 6 quarts of 5W20 synthetic oil. Moving up to the 3.5L V6 engine, you'll also need 6 quarts of oil, but the recommended type is 10W30 synthetic. Opting for the 5.7L V8 engine in the same model year Charger calls for 7 quarts of 5W20 oil. If your 2006 Charger's 5.7L V8 has an MDS system, Dodge specifies the use of 5W20 oil. The high-performance 6.1L V8 engine in the Charger requires 7 quarts of 0W40 synthetic oil.
