Hey all
Just bought a 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 with the 5.7 Hemi. How many quarts of oil? First gas trucck ive had in a while. Had an 04 Hemi 3500 think it was 7 quarts.....correct me if wrong
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure it is still 7 quarts.

 

Thanks

 

Still seven quarts. No O/M?

 

Im sure there is, but i pick truck up tomorrow. Just figured faster here that way just grab oil/filter on way home. Thanks for reply.

 

Ah, that would make a difference. 5W-20, seven quarts. Filter of your choice. I'm partial to K&N.

 

Cool man thanks! I thought it was 10w 30. or think i use to use that.
Thanks again.

 

Yes, it is 7 qts. The factory oil recommendation for your truck is 5W-20 if under 14,000lbs GVWR or 5W-30 if over 14,000lbs GVWR. You don't have MDS so you can run the 5W-30 either way.

Note - the filters for the 08+ HEMI changed. It is not the same one you would have used on your 04. They now use a metric thread. MOPAR MO899 is the number( cross to whatever brand you like ).

 

Thanks for the reply! very helpful. Cant wait to pick the truck up today.

 

Fumoto oil valves work really well also.
