This summer, Dodge changed the oil specifications for the Ram 1500 Ecodiesel. While we’re not sure of the exact reason for the change–it could have to do with more frequent DPF regeneration–all oils must fit the following specs:
- FCA Material Standard MS-10902 and the API CJ-4 or ACEA E9/E7
- or ACEA A3/B4
The service bulletin is available here.
Approved Oils:
Shell Rotella T6 Full Synthetic 5w40 1 Gallon
Shell Rotella T6 Full Synthetic 5w40 1 Quart
Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme Synthetic 5w40 1 Gallon
