Change the oil about every 8,000 miles or 6 months, and shorten to roughly 4,000 miles for severe-duty driving in New England.

The 2013 Ram 2500’s 5.7-liter V8 benefits from timely service, especially with towing (up to 11,120 lbs), frequent short trips, or winter cold starts on the North Shore. If you see an oil-life monitor alert earlier, follow it. Severe-duty includes heavy payloads, stop-and-go traffic on Route 114, and temperature extremes.

• Normal: ~8,000 miles/6 months (whichever comes first)
• Severe duty: ~4,000 miles intervals
• Log each service on your repair order for warranty recordkeeping

Use SAE 5W-20 engine oil that meets Chrysler MS-6395, with full synthetic recommended for cold-weather protection in Danvers, MA.

This viscosity supports proper lubrication and cold-start pumpability for the 5.7-liter V8. While conventional or synthetic blend may meet spec, full synthetic offers better stability during towing and temperature swings around Greater Boston. We install OEM-spec oil and a Mopar-quality filter to match Ram requirements.

• Viscosity: SAE 5W-20 (per OEM spec)
• Specification: Chrysler MS-6395 (API licensed)
• Includes OEM-quality oil filter at our Danvers service center

The 2013 Ram 2500 5.7-liter V8 takes approximately 7.0 quarts of oil with a filter change.

This capacity supports the V8’s lubrication demands under load and during cold starts common in New England. We confirm fill level after the engine circulates oil and top off to the proper mark. Always verify capacity by VIN and owner’s manual, as some configurations can vary slightly.

• Engine: 5.7L V8 (gasoline, regular unleaded)
• Fill amount: ~7.0 quarts with filter
• Proper level confirmed after warm-up and recheck

Yes—dealer service uses OEM-spec Mopar oil/filters and includes a multi-point inspection tailored to the 2013 Ram 2500.

Quick-lube shops can be convenient, but they may not stock the exact Chrysler MS-6395 oil or Ram-specific filters. Our Danvers team documents maintenance for warranty protection and inspects components that matter on a 4x4 work truck. You get OEM fitment, Ram-trained eyes, and service records tied to your VIN.

• OEM-spec fluids and Mopar/OEM filter
• VIN-linked records to support warranty claims
• Inspection covers tires, brakes, fluids, and 4x4 components

Skipping or exceeding the 8,000-mile/6-month guideline can lead to denied coverage for oil-related failures if maintenance isn’t documented.

Automakers require proof that you followed the maintenance schedule in the owner’s manual. Keep receipts and repair orders from certified facilities; warranty work generally requires a qualified, certified shop. In North Shore conditions (towing, cold starts), severe-duty intervals help protect coverage and engine health.

• Maintain records with dates, mileage, and parts used
• Follow oil-life monitor prompts and severe-duty guidance
• Certified service supports fast, cleaner warranty processing

Full synthetic offers superior cold-flow and thermal stability over conventional, with synthetic blend sitting between the two for the 5W-20 requirement.

For the 5.7-liter V8, 5W-20 meeting Chrysler MS-6395 is the baseline. Full synthetic maintains viscosity under towing and helps during Danvers winters; conventional meets spec but may shear sooner. A blend balances cost and performance if you don’t tow near the 11,120-lb limit.

• All oils must meet Chrysler MS-6395 and 5W-20
• Full synthetic best for temperature swings and towing
• Blend = budget-friendly upgrade over conventional

Expect roughly $89–$139 depending on oil type (conventional, blend, or full synthetic) and filter for a 2013 Ram 2500.
