When to Change 1984 Dodge Charger Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1984 Dodge Charger? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 1984 Charger’s oil should be changed according to Dodge’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Charger in the above table. Outside of Dodge-recommended oil change intervals, your Charger may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Dodge recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Dodge Charger. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1984 Dodge Charger Oil Change Questions

  • What can low oil do to my Dodge Charger engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Dodge Charger engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Dodge Charger oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Dodge Charger exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Dodge Charger oil changes? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for Dodge Charger oil changes.
