The Journey comes with two types of engine, the 4 cylinder or the 6 cylinder. To change the oil in your vehicle, you need to know which engine you have. This will determine whether you need 10W-30 for the 6 cylinder or, 5W-20 for the 4 cylinder. They each require different amounts of oil as well. The 6 cylinder needs 5.5 quarts and the 4 cylinder only needs 4.5 quarts.
