Keep service records to support warranty coverage and to track interval adherence.

• Refer to the owner's manual for the exact OEM interval
• Shorten intervals for frequent towing or canyon runs

The 2016 Ram 2500’s 5.7L V8 performs differently on different oil types: conventional oils are refined mineral oils, blends mix conventional and synthetic base stocks, and full synthetic oils provide higher thermal stability and cleaner operation under heavy loads.

For towing, frequent short trips, or extreme temperature swings around Sandy and the Wasatch, full synthetic helps with cold starts and sustained high temperatures. Our service advisors will recommend the right oil chemistry and viscosity to match manufacturer guidelines and your typical driving or towing load.

• Conventional: lower cost for light duty
• Synthetic blend: compromise of cost and protection
• Full synthetic: best thermal stability for towing and cold starts

The exact viscosity and OEM oil type are listed in the owner’s manual; our technicians verify and use the factory‑approved grade. Correct capacity, including the filter change, is specified by the factory and followed during each service visit to avoid overfilling or underfilling the sump.

Common engine concerns for heavy‑duty usage include monitoring for oil consumption after extended towing and checking for conditions that accelerate oil breakdown, such as frequent short trips or extended idling. Technicians inspect for leaks and verify PCV and valve cover seal condition during routine changes. Bring your 2016 Ram 2500 to Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy in Sandy for an OEM‑spec oil change — schedule service.
