how often should i change the oil in my 2023 ram 3500?
Follow the maintenance interval specified in your 2023 Ram 3500 owner’s manual for the manufacturer‑recommended oil change interval.
Severe‑duty conditions common around Sandy—frequent towing (the 2023 Ram 3500 has 32,570 lb towing capacity in its spec set), cold canyon starts, or dusty roads—can shorten service intervals. If you regularly tow heavy loads or do many short trips, err on the side of more frequent oil and filter service and have our technicians verify your schedule.
- Refer to the owner’s manual for the Ram‑specified interval
- Heavy towing and canyon driving increase maintenance needs
- Service records help preserve warranty and resale value
what type of oil does a 2023 ram 3500 take?
The exact oil viscosity and type for a 2023 Ram 3500 are specified in the owner’s manual and by the OEM parts database used by our service technicians.
Different engines and options for the 2023 Ram 3500 may call for different oil grades or full‑synthetic formulations; our service team will confirm the correct OEM‑recommended oil when you book. Using the correct oil protects the turbochargers, valvetrain, and high‑load components under heavy towing.
- We verify OEM oil spec at inspection before service
- Full synthetic is commonly recommended for heavy‑duty use

is it worth getting a 2023 ram 3500 oil change at the dealer vs a quick-lube shop?
Dealer service provides OEM‑spec oil and filter, multi‑point inspection, and documentation that supports warranty and service history; quick‑lube shops often offer faster, lower‑cost conventional oil changes.
For a heavy vehicle like the 2023 Ram 3500—often used for towing or commercial work—dealer service ensures the correct OEM parts and fluids are used and that any related issues (leaks, mount wear, turbo concerns) are flagged by trained technicians. Quick‑lube shops can be convenient for routine, conventional oil changes when OEM requirements aren’t in play.
- Dealer: OEM oil/filter, VIN‑specific parts, multi‑point inspection
- Quick‑lube: faster turnaround, may use non‑OEM parts
- Documented service at the dealer helps preserve warranty claims
what's the difference between conventional, synthetic blend, and full synthetic for a 2023 ram 3500?
Conventional oil is refined mineral oil, synthetic blend mixes synthetic and mineral stocks, and full synthetic uses engineered base stocks for higher stability and protection under heat and heavy load.
For a heavy‑duty pickup like the 2023 Ram 3500 that may tow extensively, full synthetic typically offers better high‑temperature protection and film strength during heavy loads and repeated towing cycles. Our advisors can recommend the best oil type based on your driving and towing habits around Sandy and the Wasatch Front.
- Full synthetic: better heat resistance and longevity
- Synthetic blend: balance of cost and improved protection
- Conventional: adequate for light use, lower cost

Failure to follow the OEM maintenance schedule and keep service records can jeopardize warranty coverage for components affected by poor maintenance.
Manufacturers require that routine maintenance be performed per the owner’s manual and that proper fluids and parts are used—records and receipts support warranty claims. If you’re unsure which intervals apply to your 2023 Ram 3500, bring the VIN to our service desk and we’ll help verify requirements and record service in your history.
