Hi there, first time poster long time reader. I hated my last car so I didn't care but that has changed. Picked up a 2012 Charger SXT.
1. What kind of vehicle you have - Charger SXT 3.6L Pentastar
2. What your owner's manual says -- not just viscosity, but certifications (look for acronyms like API SM, ILSAC GF-
4, etc.) and change intervals as well - 5W-30 API certified oil meeting the requirements of Chrysler Standard MS-6395. Manual claims every 8,000 miles. I will have to double check this as I'm looking at the Mobile Dodge App on my phone and not the printed manual which is in the car.
3. Where you live - Central NJ
4. How you drive (easy? hard? fast? slow?) I baby the car for the most part. I have my little spurts of fun from time to time but on the highway it's cruise control @65 in the right lane.
5. What your daily drive is like (short trips? long trips? city? highway?) I commute into work about 3 days a week.
8 miles each way, short trips, highway with stoplights. Sometimes I hit red, sometimes I don't.
6. Whether your car has any known problems- Being awesome.
I was thinking about a WIX filter and PU but obviously wanted opinions! Thanks in advance.
