$69–$129 is the typical oil-change price range at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy, with up-front pricing provided.

How long does a 2013 Dodge Charger oil change take at a dealership?

Most 2013 Dodge Charger oil changes take about 45 minutes at our service center.

That time covers draining old oil, replacing the OEM-spec filter, adding specified oil, and performing a multi-point inspection used to catch common issues. Busy periods or added services (brake check, tire rotation) add time; we recommend scheduling to reduce wait times. Appointments can be made online.

  • Typical service time: ~45 minutes
  • Includes filter change and inspection
  • Schedule online to minimize wait: schedule service
How often should I change the oil in my 2013 Dodge Charger?

The factory recommended interval is to follow the owner's manual schedule; many 2013 Dodge Charger owners follow service intervals around 6,000–8,000 miles for mixed driving.

Severe-duty driving in the Sandy area — frequent short trips, towing, or heavy stop-and-go — typically shortens the useful interval and calls for closer attention. We review your driving patterns during service and note recommendations in your vehicle record to support warranty and resale value.

  • Follow the owner's manual for the official OEM interval
  • Short trips and towing in Utah can require more frequent changes
  • Keep service records to document maintenance for warranty and resale
What type of oil does a 2013 Dodge Charger take?

The 2013 Dodge Charger with the 3.6L V‑6 typically uses a 5W‑20 full‑synthetic oil per OEM guidance.

Using the OEM-recommended viscosity and a full‑synthetic formulation helps maintain cold-start pumpability in Sandy winters and provides better protection under high-temperature canyon driving. Our technicians install oils that meet Chrysler specifications and document the exact product used on your service record.

  • Typical OEM viscosity: 5W‑20
  • Full‑synthetic formulation recommended for temperature extremes
  • OEM-spec oil documented on the invoice for warranty records
How much oil does a 2013 Dodge Charger need?

The 2013 Dodge Charger 3.6L V‑6 requires approximately 6.0 quarts of oil with a filter change.

Technicians always fill to the OEM-specified level and confirm via dipstick after warm-up to avoid overfill or underfill. If your Charger has had engine work or aftermarket modifications, we verify capacity for that specific configuration before completing the service.

  • Oil capacity (with filter): ~6.0 quarts
  • Final level verified by dipstick after warm-up
  • Adjustments made for altered or aftermarket engines as needed
Is it worth getting a 2013 Dodge Charger oil change at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy vs a quick-lube shop?

Dealer service includes OEM‑spec oil and filter plus a documented multi-point inspection, which many quick-lube shops do not provide.

Quick-lube shops can be faster and sometimes less expensive for conventional oil, but dealer service records help preserve warranty claims and resale transparency. We provide full documentation of parts and fluids used, and technicians follow factory procedures for drain and fill to OEM tolerances.

  • OEM-spec oil and filter installed and recorded
  • Multi-point inspection included with full-service options
  • Service records help document warranty and resale history
Will skipping oil changes void my 2013 Dodge Charger warranty?

Skipping required oil changes risks denial of related warranty claims if maintenance records cannot prove compliance with OEM intervals.

Warranty adjudication typically requires proof that scheduled maintenance was performed using proper fluids and methods; service records from certified facilities make that proof straightforward. Keep invoices that list oil type, quantity, and mileage to support any future warranty work.

  • Maintain invoices showing oil type, quantity, and mileage
  • Dealer service records are readily accepted for warranty documentation
  • Missing records can complicate related warranty repairs
What's the difference between conventional, synthetic blend, and full synthetic for a 2013 Dodge Charger?

Full synthetic offers better high‑temperature stability and cold‑start protection; blends are a cost/benefit middle ground, and conventional offers the lowest upfront cost.

For the 3.6L V‑6 in a 2013 Dodge Charger, synthetic oils maintain viscosity under canyon or highway loads and resist breakdown during extended intervals. Blends can be a budget-friendly upgrade over conventional oil, but only the oil listed in your owner’s manual should be used to meet OEM recommendations.

  • Full synthetic: superior thermal and shear stability
  • Synthetic blend: improved protection vs conventional at lower cost than full synthetic
  • Conventional: lowest cost, shorter service interval
