FLUIDS, LUBRICANTS AND GENUINE PARTS
Engine
ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Coolant We recommend you use MOPAR® Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile Formula
OAT (Organic Additive Technology).
Engine Oil Only use ACEA C3 5W-30 Synthetic Low Ash engine oil meeting Chrysler material
standard MS-11106 or Pennzoil Ultra Euro L full synthetic 5W-30 motor oil.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use MOPAR® Engine Oil Filters.
Fuel Filters We recommend you use MOPAR® Fuel Filter. Must meet 3 micron rating. Using a fuel
filter that does not meet the manufacturers filtration and water separating require-
ments can severely impact fuel system life and reliability.
94 MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE

ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Fuel Selection Use good quality diesel fuel from a reputable supplier in your vehicle. Federal law
requires that you must fuel this vehicle with Ultra Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
(15 ppm Sulfur maximum) and prohibits the use of Low Sulfur Highway Diesel fuel
(500 ppm Sulfur maximum) to avoid damage to the emissions control system. For
most year-round service, No. 2 diesel fuel meeting ASTM specification D-975 Grade
S15 will provide good performance. We recommend you use a blend of up to 5%
biodiesel, meeting ASTM specification D-975 with your diesel engine. This vehicle is
compatible with biodiesel blends greater than 5% but no greater than 20% biodiesel
meeting ASTM specification D-7467 provided the shortened maintenance intervals
are followed as directed.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid MOPAR® Diesel Exhaust Fluid (API Certified) (DEF) or equivalent that has been API Certified to the ISO 22241 standard. Use of fluids not API Certified to ISO 22241 may
result in system damage.
NOTE: If the vehicle is exposed to extreme cold (below
20°F or -7°C), or is required to operate at colder-than-
normal conditions for prolonged periods, use climatized No. 2 diesel fuel or dilute the No. 2 diesel fuel with 50%
No. 1 diesel fuel. This will provide better protection from
fuel gelling or wax-plugging of the fuel filters.

Axle Differential (Rear) – With Electronic Limited-Slip
Differential (ELSD) We recommend you use MOPAR® GL-5 Synthetic Axle
Lubricant SAE 75W-85 with friction modifier additive.
Axle Differential (Rear) – Without Electronic Limited-
Slip Differential (ELSD) We recommend you use MOPAR® GL-5 Synthetic Axle
Lubricant SAE 75W-85.
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use MOPAR® DOT 3 Brake Fluid,
SAE J1703 should be used. If DOT 3, SAE J1703 brake
fluid is not available, then DOT 4 is acceptable.
Power Steering Reservoir – 3.0L Engine We recommend you use MOPAR® Hydraulic fluid
MS-11655.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change
indicator system. The oil change indicator system will
remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for
scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change
indicator message will illuminate. This means that ser-
vice is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions
such as frequent short-trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or
cold ambient temperatures will influence when the “Oil
Change Required” message is displayed. Severe Operat-
ing Conditions can cause the change oil message to
illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last
reset. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible,
within the next 500 miles (805 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator
message after completing the scheduled oil change. If a
scheduled oil change is performed by someone otherthan your authorized dealer, the message can be reset by
referring to the steps described under “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)/Oil Change Required” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change inter-
vals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or twelve months,
whichever comes first.
Engine Oil Filter Replacement
Residual oil in the housing may spill from the housing
when the new filter is installed if the residual oil is not
either removed from the housing or enough time has not
elapsed to allow the oil to drain back into the engine.
When servicing the oil filter on this engine, carefully
remove the filter and use a suction gun to remove any
residual oil left in the housing or wait about 30 minutes
for the oil to drain back into the engine.
100 MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
•Check engine oil level
• Check windshield washer fluid level
• Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual
wear or damage
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake
master cylinder, power steering and transmission as
needed
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Required Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules on the following
pages for required maintenance.At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil Change Indicator System:
•Change oil and filter.
• Completely fill the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank.
• Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregu-
lar wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator
system turns on.
• Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as
required.
• Inspect automatic transmission fluid if equipped
with dipstick.
• Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses
and park brake.
