The recommended oil for the 2015 Ram 1500 varies based on the engine size. The 3.0 L V6 diesel requires Synthetic Diesel 5W-40 for all temperatures, while the 3.6 L V6 and 5.7 L V8 engines should use 5W-20 Synthetic regardless of temperature. The oil capacity is 10.6 quarts with a filter for the 3.0 L V6 diesel, 5.9 quarts with a filter for the 3.6 L V6, and 7 quarts with a filter for the 5.7 L V8. The torque for the drain plug is 25 ft/lbs for all versions of the truck. It's important to remember that oil needs to be changed periodically. It's recommended to do an oil and filter change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles.
