What is the 2004 Dodge Caravan’s oil type?

I just picked up a 2004 Dodge Caravan to haul my band’s equipment. I think it’s due for an oil change. What kind of oil does it take?

Changing your van’s oil regularly will keep it rocking for years to come! The 2004
Dodge Caravan
takes 5W-30 fully synthetic motor oil.
Using the wrong oil can cause serious damage to your engine. That’s why you should always check your owner’s manual or oil cap to ensure you’re using the right one.
The recommended oil for the 2004 Dodge Caravan is 5W-30 fully synthetic motor oil:
  • 5W-30 means your engine will stay lubricated even in extreme temperatures
  • Fully synthetic means it contains artificial compounds and few impurities
Doing your own oil changes means more money in your pocket to cover gas and new guitar strings. To save even more money, shop for a new car insurance policy with
