What type of oil does a Dodge Caliber use?

Dodge Caliber Engine Oil Type
The Dodge Caliber is recommended to use 5W-30 engine oil for optimal performance and engine protection. This type of oil is designed to provide outstanding engine protection and is suitable for use in a wide range of temperatures. It is important to ensure that the engine oil meets the manufacturer’s specifications to maintain the vehicle’s performance and longevity.
It’s worth noting that the Dodge Caliber with different engine types may have specific oil capacity and viscosity requirements. For example, the 2012 Dodge Caliber with the 2.4L 4-cylinder turbo engine takes 5 quarts (with filter) of 0W-40 synthetic oil, while the Dodge Caliber with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine takes 4.5 quarts (with filter) of 5W-20 synthetic oil.
When selecting engine oil for the Dodge Caliber, it’s advisable to consult a qualified professional, such as a mechanic or dealership, to ensure the correct oil type and capacity are used for the specific vehicle model and engine type.
