Dodge recommends having your 2004 Dodge Viper’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Viper may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Dodge recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Dodge Viper. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
