★ Top Answer
The 2014 Dodge Charger requires synthetic SAE 5W-20 oil for its 3.6-liter engine, needing 5.6 liters (6 US quarts), while the 5.7-liter V8 engine requires 6.6 liters (7 US quarts). Dodge recommends changing the oil every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever occurs first, to prevent potential damage from old or low oil levels. It is important to regularly check the oil level when the vehicle is parked on a level surface, the engine is off for at least 5 minutes, and the dipstick is cleaned before inserting and removing it for an accurate reading. The typical cost of an oil change for the Charger ranges from $200 to $220, labor included.

Getting an oil change for over $200 is not necessary. The total cost for full synthetic oil, a quality filter, and labor should be under $100.

Dodge suggests using MOPAR® SAE 5W-20 motor oil options like Pennzoil®, Shell Helix®, or similar for the 2014 Charger. It is advised for both the 3.6L and the 5.7L engines to opt for this specific viscosity grade.

I drive a 2014 Dodge Charger SXT, and the manual specifies using only synthetic engine oils that meet the API SN category. It suggests using Pennzoil Ultra 0W-40 or a similar full synthetic oil that meets the Chrysler material standard MS-12633.
