2016 Dodge Challenger maintenance schedule
The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.
A dot means the service is due at that mileage or after that many years, whichever comes first. Engines: 3.6L, 5.7L.

Oil change limit
- Oil change intervals never exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), twelve months or 350 hours of engine run time, whichever comes first.
- Change oil when the oil change indicator message appears; severe conditions can trigger it as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km).
Severe duty, all models
- Change engine oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off-road environment, or predominately at idle or very low engine RPM.
Once a month or before a long trip
- Check engine oil level.
- Check windshield washer fluid level.
- Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage. Rotate tires at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before your next scheduled service.
- Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, and power steering and fill as needed.
- Check function of all interior and exterior lights.
At every oil change interval as indicated by oil change indicator system
- Change oil and filter.
- Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before your next scheduled service.
- Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as required.
- Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses and park brake.

Where can I find the 2016 Dodge Challenger owner's manual?
The manufacturer publishes it free on Mopar.com as a PDF (linked in the manuals section above), along with quick guides, radio manuals and the warranty booklet.
Specifications come from the manufacturer's spec comparison and its media-site specification sheets; maintenance schedules, fluids and publications come from Mopar's owner site and owner's manuals. Equipment and ratings vary by configuration; check the owner's manual or a dealer for a specific vehicle. This model is no longer sold new.
