What is the 2014 RAM 1500 oil type?

I just bought a used 2014 RAM 1500 at a great price from a friend of mine. Money is a bit tight right now, so I want to save some extra cash by changing the oil on my own. What is the oil type for the 2014 RAM 1500?

RAM 1500’s
oil type depends on what engine is underneath the hood. Since the 2014 model has three engine types, pop the hood or use the owner’s manual to find out which engine you have.
Once you’ve identified the engine, here are the oil types to use in the 2014 RAM 1500:
  • 3.6-liter V6: SAE 5W-20
  • 5.7-liter HEMI V8: SAE 5W-20
  • 3.0-liter diesel V6: SAE 5W-40
However, the trim should make no difference as to what oil you should use; it’s still entirely based on the engine. So whether you have a Tradesman, an SLT, or a Laramie, the engine oil remains the same.
