Trevor’s Dodge Charger Hellcat SRT In Pictures

AMSOIL Product Applications, Fun Stuff

When Trevor was searching for the best engine oil for his new Dodge Charger Hellcat SRT, he found that there were not a lot of choices on the market. As the Hellcat’s supercharged 6.2L V-8 engine puts out 707 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque, ordinary motor oil simply would not do. The proper candidate also had to meet the Chrysler/Mopar MS-12633 specification for SRT engines.

Trevor contacted us and ultimately settled on AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-40 Synthetic Oil. This 100% synthetic 0W-40 was designed for the Dodge/Chrysler MS-12633, MS-10725 and MS-10850 specifications. This motor oil was engineered from the ground-up with the mega-horsepower rigors of Dodge SRT engines in mind. If there’s one upgrade SRT Hemi owners should make, this is it.

Trevor also purchased the first-rate AMSOIL EAO-11 oil filter for his Hellcat. AMSOIL EAO filters boast ultra-durable construction and industry-leading particle removal. We are confident that there likely isn’t a better oil/filter combination for Hellcat engines on the planet.

Trevor was kind enough to share pictures of his gorgeous Charger Hellcat. Enjoy!

New Dodge EcoDiesel Motor Oil Coming Soon

New AMSOIL Products, News

Update # 1 August 2016: FCA changes motor oil spec and viscosity requirements for Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee Models with EcoDiesel engine

Update # 2 August 2016: Oildepot offers new oil filter for EcoDiesel engines in Canada and United States

We have great news for Canadian and US Dodge EcoDiesel Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel owners!

We will soon have a synthetic 5W-30 engine oil for the new Dodge Ram and Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel 3.0L V-6 engine. The AMSOIL Low-SAPS European Formula 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil is being reformulated to meet both the ACEA “C-3” and Chrysler “MS-11106” specifications. The EcoDiesel engines require an engine oil with low levels of sulfated ash, phosphorous and sulfur (known as “SAPS”). This product will be a high quality substitute for Mopar MaxPro 5W-30 Synthetic Diesel Oil (part # 68231014GA) Pennzoil Ultra Euro L 5W-30 and Mobil 1 ESP Formula 5W-30.

This product will also be receiving a name change. Effective December 1st, it will be called “European Formula 5W-30 Improved Emissions System Protection Synthetic Motor Oil” (product code: AEL).

When Will This EcoDiesel Oil Be Available?

AMSOIL European Formula 5W-30 Improved ESP Synthetic Motor Oil will be available in US gallon jugs on December 1st. The quart bottles will be available as the old formulation sells out (projected to be sometime in January 2016).

We also hope to have an oil filter to go with this oil in the near future. Please check back with us in early 2016 or contact us and get on our EcoDiesel mailing list.

Where Can I Buy EcoDiesel Engine Oil At A Great Price?

Oildepot will sell AMSOIL European Formula 5W-30 Improved ESP Synthetic Motor Oil for Ram EcoDiesel engines at the best prices in Canada or the US. We ship from two warehouses in Canada and eleven in the USA (with great shipping rates!).

Request a wholesale price list using the form on this page and put “EcoDiesel” in the comments section or call us at 1-800-748-5781.

Why Is A Special Oil Needed For the Ram EcoDiesel Engine?

The “SAPS” additives of improper motor oils can have adverse effects on the precise emission components on these trucks. It is vital that Dodge and Jeep EcoDiesel owners stick with motor oils formulated specifically to meet the aforementioned Chrysler MS-11106 and ACEA C-3 specifications.

How Can AMSOIL European Formula ESP 5W-30 Synthetic Oil Benefit My EcoDiesel Engine?

  • Synthetic wear protection
  • Low friction for maximum efficiency
  • Designed for turbocharger protection
  • Easy Cold temperature starting  (cold-pour-point of -51°C)
  • Stable oil temps when dealing with high heat and heavy loads
  • Maintains its 5W-30 viscosity over the length of the OEM service interval (will not thin out)
  • Compatible with sensitive Dodge EcoDiesel emissions equipment

How Long Can I Go Between Oil Changes With This New Oil?

AMSOIL European Formula 5W-30 Improved ESP Synthetic Motor Oil should be changed at the interval prescribed by your owners manual or by electronic oil life monitoring systems.

What Does A Dodge EcoDiesel Oil Change Cost?

News
Dodge Ram 1500 EcoDiesel

The high cost of oil changes for Dodge Ram 1500 trucks with the EcoDiesel engine has some owners grumbling. (photo credit briggsdodge.com)

Update #1 August 2016: Chrysler changes EcoDiesel engine oil requirement from 5W-30 to 5W-40

Update #2 August 2016: Oildepot now sells a WIX Oil Filter for the EcoDiesel engine

We have been hearing all sorts of nightmarish accounts of just how expensive the oil change service is for Dodge Ram 1500 trucks and Jeep Grand Cherokees equipped with the Italian-made 3.0L EcoDiesel engine. As the prices we were hearing almost seemed implausible, we decided to do some checking around. We contacted Dodge dealerships in major cites throughout Canada and the United States and asked for the cost of an oil and filter change for a 2015 Dodge Ram 1500 with the EcoDiesel engine. The prices listed below are not averages for each city; they are price quotes from randomly selected Dodge dealerships. Prices may vary at other Dodge dealerships in these regions. These prices include labor, 11 quarts of engine oil and an oil filter.

Dodge EcoDiesel Oil Change Prices In USA and Canada

United States (prices in US funds before taxes and environmental fees)

  • Los Angeles $199.99
  • Phoenix $180.00
  • Denver $199.99
  • Chicago $200.00
  • New York City $169.99
  • Miami $185.00
  • Average $189.16

Canada (prices in Canadian funds before taxes and environmental fees)

  • Vancouver $239.85
  • Edmonton $235.45
  • Regina $259.95
  • Winnipeg $250.00
  • Toronto $230.00
  • Halifax $260.00
  • Average $245.88

Why Is The EcoDiesel Oil Change So Expensive?

Dodge/Mopar EcoDiesel Oil Filter

When one breaks down the retail price of the motor oil and oil filter for this engine, it becomes immediately apparent as to why an EcoDiesel oil change is so costly. The main culprit is the Chrysler/Mopar oil filter. It retails for an outlandish $61.50 in the US and $71.00 in Canada. The Mopar 6822 9402AA oil filter is a cartridge unit with a conventional cellulose media. We have inspected this part and believe us, there is absolutely nothing special about this oil filter. The plastic and paper construction of the EcoDiesel oil filter is similar to the cartridge oil filter for many Dodge V-6 engines, but at 8 to 10 times the price. The EcoDiesel filter is larger and not interchangeable.

The reason that Dodge can charge these ridiculous prices for an ordinary oil filter is that there is virtually no aftermarket competition at this time. There is some speculation that Chrysler has some sort of patent protection on this filter design that is blocking aftermarket oil filter makers from bringing competitive versions to market. We spoke to several oil filter makers and none would verify that claim. Most major oil filter makers have an EcoDiesel oil filter in the advanced design phase and some hope to be in production in early 2016. Aftermarket oil filters will likely retail for a fraction of the cost of the Mopar unit and this will bring down the cost of an EcoDiesel oil change quite dramatically.

The other input cost for a Dodge EcoDiesel oil change is the engine oil itself. Only motor oil meeting the Chrysler MS-11106 specification is suitable for this engine and there are very few alternatives on the market. Most dealerships use Mopar MaxPro 5W-30 Synthetic Diesel Engine Oil which retails for $16.15 per US quart in Canada and $9.00 in the US.

We hope to have a top-quality synthetic oil substitute for Mopar MaxPro Diesel 5W-30 in the very near future. We also hope to have a WIX oil filter to go with it. Check back with us regularly or contact us using the form on this page to get on our EcoDiesel mailing list.

Update: We have a motor oil for Dodge Ram EcoDiesel engines coming soon.
