ComponentFluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Engine Coolant We recommend you use Mopar Antifreeze/Coolant 10 Year/150,000 Mile Formula OAT (Organic Additive
Technology) meeting the requirements of FCA Material Standard MS.90032.
Engine Oil We recommend you use API Certified SAE 5W-20 Engine Oil, meeting the requirements of FCA Material
Standard MS-6395 such as Mopar, Pennzoil, and Shell Helix. Refer to your engine oil filler cap for correct SAE
grade.
Engine Oil Filter We recommend you use Mopar Engine Oil Filters.
Spark Plugs We recommend you use Mopar Spark Plugs.
Fuel Selection 87 Octane, 0-15% Ethanol.

• Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze)
other than specified Organic Additive

Chassis
ComponentFluid, Lubricant, Or Genuine Part
Automatic Transmission – 3.6L Gasoline Engine Only Use Only ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid. Failure to use ATF+4 fluid
may affect the function or performance of your transmission. We recom-
mend Mopar ATF+4 Fluid.
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use Mopar DOT 4.
DOT 4 brake fluid must be changed every two years regardless of mileage.
Power Steering Reservoir Use Pentosin CHF 11S power steering fluid meeting FCA Material Stan-
dard MS-11655.

Fluid, 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 FCA 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 Filter 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 requirements can severely impact fuel system life
and reliability.

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 climatized or diesel Number 1 ULSD fuel is
not available, and you are operating below
(20°F/-6°C), in sustained arctic conditions,
Mopar Premium Diesel Fuel Treatment (or
equivalent) is recommended to avoid gelling.
