Dodge recommends having your 2006 Dodge Charger’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Charger may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Dodge Charger. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

2006 Dodge Charger Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Dodge Charger? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Charger’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Dodge oil on my own? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Dodge exhaust smoke gray or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Dodge Charger oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Dodge Charger oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Dodge Charger oil light illuminated? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Dodge Charger oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to replace my Charger’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Dodge Charger, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
