When to Change 1984 Dodge Ramcharger Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Dodge recommends having your 1984 Dodge Ramcharger’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Ramcharger in the above table. Outside of Dodge-recommended oil change intervals, your Ramcharger may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Dodge recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Dodge Ramcharger. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1984 Dodge Ramcharger Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Dodge Ramcharger? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, generate too much heat, and cause your Dodge Ramcharger engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • 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 changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Dodge Ramcharger exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Dodge Ramcharger? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Dodge Ramcharger 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.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Dodge Ramcharger to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Dodge Ramcharger 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.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Dodge Ramcharger? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Dodge Ramcharger every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
