In the 2014 Dodge Charger range, there are three different engines utilized. If your Charger has the smallest engine, the 3.6L V6, you should fill up with regular unleaded gasoline of at least 89 octane. However, if your Charger is equipped with either the 5.7L V8 or the 6.4L V8, things get a bit more complex. If your car has an automatic transmission, it still requires 89 octane unleaded gasoline. But if you opt for a manual transmission, it is recommended to use Premium 91 octane or higher fuel. While it's not mandatory, choosing lower octane fuel could result in knocking, potentially harming the engine over time. So, if you have a bigger engine with a manual transmission, it's best practice to fill up with premium gasoline for added safety.

The 2014 Dodge Charger with the 3.6L engine runs fine on regular 87 octane gas, so you don't need to splurge on premium fuel. However, the bigger 5.7L engine is advised to use the 89 octane gas for the best performance, although you can still use 87 octane without any major issues.

I drive a 2014 Dodge Charger SXT 4-door sedan. When I first got the car, I was using 87 regular unleaded gas. The dealership recommended switching to 89 unleaded to prevent damage to my fuel pump. Can I switch gas without causing harm to my fuel pump?
