# 2019-2025 Ram 1500 Oil Type and Capacity

The 2019-2025 Ram 1500 takes 0W-20 engine oil, 5 quarts with a filter change by engine. OEM filter Mopar 68191349AA (MO-349, cartridge). Verified against factory documentation, with change intervals and aftermarket filter equivalents.

**Quick answer**: The 2019-2025 Ram 1500 (3.6L Pentastar V6 eTorque (48V mild hybrid)) takes 0W-20 full synthetic engine oil, 5 quarts with a filter change (OEM filter Mopar 68191349AA (MO-349, cartridge)). Other engines differ; see the tables below.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 3.6L Pentastar V6 eTorque (48V mild hybrid) oil (Verified)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 0W-20 |
| Oil standard | API SN Plus/SP / FCA MS-6395 |
| Capacity (with filter) | 5 qt / 4.7 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 68191349AA (MO-349, cartridge) |
| Aftermarket filters | Wix 57526, Fram XG11665 (Ultra) |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max; 4,000-5,000 mi severe |

Note: The DT-generation Pentastar drops to 5.0 quarts (the DS/Classic 3.6 takes 5.9) and moves to 0W-20. Don't reuse old DS numbers. Cartridge filter on top of the engine.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 5.7L HEMI V8 (2019-2024, with or without eTorque) oil (Verified)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 5W-20 |
| Oil standard | API SN Plus/SP / FCA MS-6395 |
| Capacity (with filter) | 7 qt / 6.6 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 04884899AC (MO-339, spin-on) |
| Aftermarket filters | Wix 57060, Fram XG10575 (Ultra), Mobil 1 M1-212A |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max; 4,000-5,000 mi severe |

Note: Same 7-quart fill and filter as the DS HEMI; eTorque changes nothing about the oil service. Dropped for the 2025 model year (returns for 2026).

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 gen 3 (2020-2023) oil (Verified)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 5W-40 |
| Oil standard | Full synthetic meeting FCA MS-10902 / API CK-4 |
| Capacity (with filter) | 8.5 qt / 8 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 68507598AA (cartridge) |
| Aftermarket filters | Wix WL10255 (verify fitment), Mann (gen-3 specific) |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max; sooner with heavy towing |

Note: Gen-3 capacity is 8.5 qt, two quarts LESS than the 10.5-qt 2014-2019 engine, and the filter part number changed. 480 lb-ft; discontinued after January 2023.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 6.2L Supercharged HEMI V8 (TRX, 2021-2024) oil (High confidence)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 0W-40 |
| Oil standard | Full synthetic meeting FCA MS-12633 (e.g. Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0W-40) |
| Capacity (with filter) | 7.5 qt / 7.1 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 04884899AC (MO-339, spin-on) |
| Aftermarket filters | Wix 57060XP, Mobil 1 M1-212A |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max, most owners run 5,000 mi given the duty cycle |

Note: Some guides quote 7.0 qt; 7.5 qt with filter is the widely listed figure, set final level on the dipstick. MS-12633 is specific to the supercharged engine; don't substitute ordinary 0W-40.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 3.0L Hurricane SST I6 twin-turbo, Standard Output (2025-) oil (High confidence)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 0W-20 |
| Oil standard | Full synthetic meeting API SP / FCA MS-6395 |
| Capacity (with filter) | 7.5 qt / 7.1 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 68466307AB (spin-on) |
| Aftermarket filters | Wix WL10255XP (shared with GM LS pattern, verify), Fram FE10575 |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max |

Note: SO and HO Hurricanes take different oil: SO = 0W-20 (MS-6395), HO = 0W-40 (MS-A0921). The viscosity is printed on the oil fill cap. Check it before buying oil.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 3.0L Hurricane SST I6 twin-turbo, High Output (2025-) oil (High confidence)

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Viscosity | 0W-40 |
| Oil standard | Full synthetic meeting FCA MS-A0921 / API SP |
| Capacity (with filter) | 7.5 qt / 7.1 L |
| Synthetic required | Yes |
| OEM filter | Mopar 68466307AB (spin-on; HO listings supersede to 68683357AA) |
| Change interval | Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max |

Note: Do not put the SO's 0W-20 in a High Output engine, the HO spec (MS-A0921, 0W-40) is different. Check the fill cap.

## Which Ram 1500 model years does this cover?

These oil specifications apply to every Ram 1500 built from 2019 through 2025, the DT (5th generation), full-size half-ton pickup (quad, crew cab). Nothing in this specification changes between those model years.

## 2019-2025 Ram 1500 oil: common questions

### How many quarts of oil does a 2019-2025 Ram 1500 take?

It depends on the engine. The 3.6L Pentastar V6 eTorque (48V mild hybrid) takes 5 quarts; The 5.7L HEMI V8 (2019-2024, with or without eTorque) takes 7 quarts; The 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 gen 3 (2020-2023) takes 8.5 quarts; The 6.2L Supercharged HEMI V8 (TRX, 2021-2024) takes 7.5 quarts; The 3.0L Hurricane SST I6 twin-turbo, Standard Output (2025-) takes 7.5 quarts; The 3.0L Hurricane SST I6 twin-turbo, High Output (2025-) takes 7.5 quarts, all figures include a new filter.

### What kind of oil does a 2019-2025 Ram 1500 take?

0W-20 meeting API SN Plus/SP / FCA MS-6395, full synthetic (required, not merely recommended). Other engines in this vehicle may differ; see the table above.

### Can you use a different viscosity in a 2019-2025 Ram 1500?

The factory specification is 0W-20 and no alternate grade is listed for this engine. Modern variable-valve-timing hardware is sized around the specified viscosity, so substituting a thicker oil is not a free choice.

### How often does a 2019-2025 Ram 1500 need an oil change?

Follow oil-change indicator; 10,000 mi / 12 months max; 4,000-5,000 mi severe. Short trips, towing, extended idling, and dusty or very cold conditions all put the vehicle on the severe-service side of that interval.

### What oil filter does a 2019-2025 Ram 1500 take?

The OEM filter is Mopar 68191349AA (MO-349, cartridge). Common equivalents: Wix 57526, Fram XG11665 (Ultra).
