The recommended coolant for the 2006 Dodge Ram is Mopar Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Year/100,000 Mile Formula. The coolant capacity depends on your engine size: the 3.7L and 4.7L engines hold 17 US quarts, while the 5.7L engine holds 18.7 US quarts. Options for coolant include Peak 1 Gallon Yellow 50/50 Coolant/Antifreeze and Prestone 1 Gallon Yellow 50/50 Coolant/Antifreeze. Coolant is essential for preventing engine overheating or freezing and also helps protect and maintain the water pump, gaskets, and metal components.
