The 2008 Dodge Avenger takeS4.2 liters (4.5 quarts) of SAE 5W-30 engine oil. This is a very popular synthetic fluid because it's suitable for a wide variety of engines in a large range of climates. The manual for this vehicle says to change the oil every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever You arrive to first. However, Your maintenance schedule will be based on Your driving habits. It's a good idea to get in the habit of checking Your oil routinely, even when it's not time for it to be replaced. If this fluid is permitted to get low or old, serious engine damage can occur. All moving components in the engine rely on oil to be lubricated. If You're changing this fluid Yourself, a few popular 5W-30 products include Amsoil Signature Series, Mobil 1, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, and Castrol Edge.

Direct from the 2008 manual: Engine Oil Viscosity (SAE Grade) — 2.4L and 2.7L Engines SAE 5W-20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil improves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy. Your engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your vehicle. The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your engine. For information on engine oil filler cap location, refer to the “Engine Compartment” illustration in this section. Lubricants which do not have both the engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade number should not be used. Engine Oil Viscosity (SAE Grade) — 3.5L Engine SAE 10W-30 engine oil is preferred for all operating temperatures. The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your vehicle.
