Dodge ChargerThe Dodge Charger. The car that made its competitors shiver in the 60's is reborn in 2006 into a sleek sedan that can still send the competition home wimpering, the Dodge Charger.
Had the oil change done today, noticed the guys putting in 6 qts of synthetic mobil1 0w20. Asked about the difference between the specified 5w20 and 0w20 and was told there really wasnt too much and it wouldn't hurt. Went ahead and topped off the last quart with 5w20. Now, did I just get screwed?
It shouldn't affect anything. The only thing I have read about being an issue is that with the wrong weight oil your MDS may not work correctly (I think this more a case if you put in a higher weight ie. 10w30). Other than that you should be fine. 5w20 is for the 5.7L and 0w20 is for the 6.1L
I have always hear that the heavyer weight oil would render the MDS useless. I know they use 0w20 oil in the 6.1 cars.All should be ok but keep us posted.
