Look at the level n the dipstick before you drain into a MARKED bucket, that way you know how many litres corresponds to what level on the dipstick. Then fill with the factory specified amount and see how it correlates to the dipstick. Easy

My 2012 Ram 5.7L is 7 quarts with filter, filter size MO-899 / XG2; might be less with a consolidated size filter like QS173 - I never ran a consolidated size filter personally. A 1/2" socket / wrench works on my oil drain plug. Last edited: Jul 28, 2015 S JoinedMay 29, 2013Messages704LocationFlorida
My 2014 Ram 5.7L takes exactly 7 quarts with filter. Filter is MO-339. Can't remember the drain plug size. Will check later. The 2014 RAM 1500 comes in 3 engine configurations: 3.6L Pentastar V6, 5.7L Hemi V8 or a 3.0L EcoDiesel V6. The 2014 Dodge RAM 1500 model has some special considerations when it comes to oil type, oil capacities and the oil filter type. The RAM 1500 engine needs to have the optimum motor oil to work well and to maximize it’s lifespan. Motor oil protects, cleans, lubricates, and cools the engine, but you must use the correct type. However, there is a lot of information out there around the best type of engine oil your 2014 Dodge RAM 1500 needs. In this article, I’ve done the research for you on RAM-suitable genuine engine oil and oil filters for the 2014 RAM 1500. All information in this article was sourced from the owner’s manual for the 2014 RAM 1500. Table of Contents
What Type Of Oil For 2014 RAM 1500?RAM recommends for the 2014 RAM (1500 model) that the 3.6L/5.7L engines use SAE 5W-20 engine oil, and the 3.0L engine use SAE 5W-40 engine oil. This recommended oil type applies to all the 2014 RAM 1500 trims and body styles: Tradesman, HFE, SLT, Sport, Laramie, Longhorn (Quad Cab, Crew Cab or Regular Cab). The engine oil and oil filter needs regular checking and replacing on your RAM to perform in tip-top condition. The frequency of oil changes and the type of motor oil your RAM engine needs also depends on your driving style, the climate where you live, and even how old your RAM engine is. 2014 RAM 1500 Oil Type and CapacityNot all engine oils are created equal since there are many different types of motor oils available, including conventional, high-mileage, and synthetic. You’ll get the best results if you use MOPAR®, Pennzoil®, or Shell Helix® motor oils, according to manufacturer recommendations. 2014 RAM 1500 3.6L Oil Type and CapacityThe 3.6L Pentastar V6 RAM 1500 Engine will require 6 quarts (5.6 liters) of synthetic blend SAE 5W-20 engine oil. See below for the manufacturer’s recommended engine oil which improves low-temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy. There are various varieties of motor oil available, including conventional or petroleum-based, full synthetic, synthetic blend, and high-mileage, but for a RAM 1500, the manufacturer suggests to use a synthetic blend oil type since its ideal for heavy-duty use and it provides improved sludge and engine wear protection. It is also less sensitive to temperature variations. The recommended 5W-20 engine oil has a thicker viscosity and is ideal for regular operating temperatures ranging from -22°F to 68°F. This will allow your car to perform optimally in seasonal temperatures.

However, don’t switch from one oil type to another without first consulting a specialist. Does My 2014 RAM 1500 Need an Oil Change?Your truck will be the first to let you know if there is a problem with your oil. There may be an engine oil change indicator light in your RAM. The instrument cluster display will show the message “Oil Change Required” or “Oil Change”. This is part of the vehicle’s automatic oil change indicator system. When you see this light you should service your engine oil as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km). If your RAM is driven primarily at very low engine RPMs, or if it is driven in a dusty and off-road conditions, the engine oil should be changed after 4,000 miles (6,500 km) or 350 hours of engine operation. According to the manufacturer, you should never let the oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or 12 months, whichever comes first, so make sure to carry out your oil service in time! Check for the following warning lights on your 2014 RAM 1500 instrument cluster, behind your steering wheel: Oil Pressure Warning Light – illuminates to indicate low engine oil pressure. Oil Temperature Warning Light – illuminates to indicate the engine oil temperature is too high. Note that during the first few thousand miles (kilometers) of driving a new RAM, the new engine may use some oil, so your oil level might drop. This shouldn’t be seen as an issue but rather as a typical aspect of the break-in of the truck as it drives. 2014 RAM 1500 Owner’s ManualYou can download the owner’s manual (.pdf) below.
