  1. 4th Generation Chrysler Minivans: 2001-2007
    Hello, T&C 2004, 3.8L, FWD Recently, the oil light came on. So, I changed the oil* (I've already changed the oil 2500 miles ago, but, as my van was sitting idle for almost 20 days - decided to change it). *Motul SAE 5w30 (MS-6395) + Fram filter After changing the oil - light didn't go off...

    I recently noticed an oil leak that is showing up near the front of the oil pan but seems to be coming from the plastic cover of whatever is above and in front of the oil pan. You can sort of see from the pictures where this doesn’t look flush in relation to the oil pan. Any suggestions as to...

    I'm new to the forum and did a quick search and I've also looked around google for the past hour to find information on the oil filter adapter. Seems as though I stripped the threads on my adapter and can't get my oil filter back on straight. I have five quarts on the garage floor to prove it...

    I have a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan with 193k on it 3.8 liter motor. It has an oil leak that is coming from the rear drivers side of the motor. I replaced the valve cover gaskets as well as oil pan gasket so I have ruled those out as the source of the leak. I have to replace about a quart of...

    So you may have seen me say about the P0522 code that I was getting, I have found out the problem, the wire has been pulled almost all the way out of the plug (I can see bare threads) - When I pushed it (gently) back in, I have yet to get the code/oil light. So, I am going to attempt to fix it...

    Went to a new shop for oil change (2008 Grand Caravan SE). The Change Oil nag had been active. After oil change, the Change Oil nag was gone, but so was the odometer! In the place where the odometer had been, it now displays the current outside temperature. Owner's manual says nothing about...
  8. 2nd Generation Chrysler Minivans: 1991-1995
    I was working on doing a coolant flush this morning. After refilling the radiator, I got into the vehicle to start it up. When I did, the "CHECK GAGES" light came on, and when I looked to the right I saw that the oil pressure gauge had not gone up at all. The other gauges were all working fine...

    Its already cold in OH, and i've noticed that even in the mornings around 20 degree when I let it run for a few minutes, it takes a while to heat up. Even after driving for 10 minutes its still not at normal running temperature. I was wondering if anyone else has attempted to use different...

    Hey guys, I have a 2011 Caravan Crew with about 31,500 miles on it. Since my last oil change I have put on about 4,500 miles and I am almost at the 6 month mark. According to the manual I should never go more than 6 months or 8,000 miles without changing the oil. This will be my first change...

    Hey guys, I bought my 2011 caravan crew (27,000 miles) about a month ago and have put about 750 miles on it. A couple of days ago the "oil change due" light came on already! Why the heck would this light have turned on so soon? I checked the oil and the condition and level both look good. Can...
  14. 5th Generation Chrysler Minivans: 2008-2020
    Need a little expertise here guys. I just purchased a 2011 caravan with the 3.6 and 26,000 miles on it. I was looking over the manual and it calls for an oil change every 8,000 mi or every 6 months. This just seems a little extreme for me. Is this even with conventional oil? I live in Minnesota...

    The oil light is coming on when stopped. About 57K miles. The oil level is fine and the oil and filter have been changed every 5K. I changed the oil pressure sensor and still have the problem. No strange engine noises. Hard to believe it could be an oil pump or screen at this mileage. What...

    Just bought an 02 Dodge GC Sport 3.3 with 148k. I use Mobil 1 in all my newer cars but I am wondering if I might be better served selecting one of the "High Miles" oils blends for my Sport. So I am asking for your opinions and reasons. Based on what records I found from the former owners, it...

  19. 4th Generation Chrysler Minivans: 2001-2007
    I was wondering what brand of oil would be good for my van. Let me start by saying that I can't afford Mobil 1 or Amsoil. I have been using Havoline for years in all of my vehicles. Just wondering what might be better, or maybe cheaper, but still good. Your opinions will be greatly appreciated...:)
