The 2016 Dodge Ram ProMaster's 2.4 liter 4Cylinder engine useS5.5 US quarts of 0W-20 with a filter. Oil and filter changes should be scheduled every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months, if filling with conventional oil. The advantages of using synthetic vs conventional products include better lubrication among moving parts, a longer interval between service appointments and enhanced effectiveness under adverse weather conditions. A motor oil with a thinner viscosity like 0W-20 moves more easily in colder temperatures, coating engine components efficiently and providing better protection against friction and corrosion. Branded lubricants have also been shown to work up to 2xBetter than aftermarket products. The cost for a lube and filter change service for the Promaster averages $100-$115 in materials and labor.
