I've gotten oil changes at the dealership a couple of times. The oil they use is Mopar part number 50040856AA. When I look this oil up, Mopar says it does not fit my vehicle (2025 Tungsten with 3.0 HO). When I look at the specs there is no indication that it is synthetic. When I search Mopar for oil for my vehicle nothing comes up. Is the dealership using the correct oil? Does Mopar actually make an oil that is appropriate for my vehicle.
 
I looked up the oil and yes it looks wrong to me. I had my oil changed today sstho as well. they used synthetic oil part number 68523970ca ow40. 7 liters for a full change. filter 68466307ab. here's a link to the oil they used in my 2025 1500 sstho I would get your oil swapped out

MOPAR doesn't make oil.......
 
Hello everyone, I’m new to the site and new to Ram. This is the first Dodge product I’ve ever owned. ( Love the SSTS.O.) Reading this post about the proper oil not being used and seemingly the dealerships don’t know the proper oil to use makes me very nervous!! I’ve never had issues with knowing the proper oil to put in any of my former vehicles. The engine oil type has always been listed in the owners manual under capacities.
(Is this not the case?) I haven’t looked yet.
By the way, personally I would never change the oil at the recommended 10,000 mile intervals. (5000 to 6000 max), synthetic or not, I believe every 10,000 mile oil changes is begging for engine issues, especially with twin turbos!
If someone with more Mopar experience could give me more insight, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
it's not clear 0-W40 or 0-W20 full syn.
the oil cap don't have the recommendation on it?
 
read the manual as it states the type for SO or HO engine. warranty issues may occur if you don't use the right one.make sure you get notated invoice from service that indicates what oil is used
