Oil

[bonez86]

I have an 04 3.3 grand caravan. I was just changing the oil, switching to synthetic.. I was wondering how much oil it should take...

Thanks

If I remember correctly the 3.3 takes approximately 5 quarts with filter!

i usually put 4 then check it with the dip stick to see the level and add untill it gets to full

I have a 2005 DGC with a 3.8. I see Dodge is now using a 5W20 oil in it, which I hear is almost like a synthetic. The wife's 2004 Honda Civic is also using it.

My 2005 T&C with 3.3 engine uses 10W-30 in any temperatures above Zero F (-18C). Below that, it uses 5W-30. 5W-20 is not even mentioned in the Owners Manual.

That is funny. On my oil filler cap it says 5W20. In the owner's manual, under fluids and capacities, it says for 2.4 engines, 5W30 For 3.3 and 3.8 engines, 5W20. Both Chrysler products, both the same year,but gives different grades for the same engine.

My 2000 3.3L Grand C. takes 4.5 qts. with filter per the owners manual.

I would look at your manual.

Here is a link to a Chrysler site to purchase a book if you need one.

Only put in 4.5 Quarts! My 2003 3.3 G.C. takes 4.5 with filter but the manual says 5. Being overfilled by 1/2 quart can cause poor fuel mileage. Might be a good idea to just add 4 and see where you are at.
