ServiceIntervalCategoryNotes
Engine oil & filter7,500 mi / 12 moEngineFull-synthetic-era interval for a naturally aspirated engine.
Engine air filter20,000 mi / 36 moFiltersTrucks, vans and SUVs spend more of their life on gravel, job sites and unpaved shoulders, so the air filter loads up well before a sedan's would.
Spark plugs100,000 miEngineIridium and platinum plugs typically last 100,000 miles; copper plugs need replacing around 30,000.
Engine coolant100,000 mi / 120 moFluidsLong-life coolant on the first service, then roughly every 50,000 miles or 5 years afterwards.
Fuel filterAs neededFiltersMost modern gasoline vehicles use a lifetime in-tank filter that is only replaced with the fuel pump.
Serpentine / accessory belt90,000 miEngineInspect at every oil change for cracking, glazing, or missing ribs.
Tire rotation6,000 mi / 6 moTires & BrakesAll-wheel and four-wheel-drive systems are intolerant of mismatched tread depths, so this rotation interval is tighter than a front-drive car's — a difference of a few 32nds across an axle loads the centre differential.
Brake pad & rotor inspection15,000 mi / 12 moTires & BrakesPad life varies from 30,000 to 70,000 miles depending on driving style and load.
Brake fluid30,000 mi / 36 moFluidsBrake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point — replace on time even at low mileage.
Cabin air filter15,000 mi / 12 moFiltersA cheap DIY item on most vehicles; replace more often in pollen-heavy or urban areas.
Wiper bladesAs needed / 12 moElectricalReplace annually or as soon as they streak.
12V battery testAs needed / 12 moElectricalMost 12V batteries last three to five years; have it load-tested each year after year three.
Automatic transmission fluid45,000 miDrivetrainHeat is what kills automatic fluid, and a body-on-frame truck or SUV generates plenty of it — 45,000 miles between drain-and-fills is the interval that matches how this vehicle is actually used.

What the Ram C/V schedule costs to follow

Calculated from this vehicle's own interval list above — not a generic average. Following it to 100,000 miles means 54 service events across 13 distinct items, of which 13 are oil and filter changes at the 7,500 mi interval. At independent-shop rates that works out to roughly $2,200–$5,300 over 100,000 miles, or about $220–$530 per 10,000 miles driven. The item that comes around most often is tire rotation every 6,000 mi, so that is the visit to build the rest of the schedule around.

Service history

Schedule generated from this vehicle's powertrain, transmission, and drivetrain (fueleconomy.gov / U.S. Department of Energy) using mainstream manufacturer service practice for its model year. Your owner's manual is the authority — follow its severe-duty schedule if you tow, idle a lot, or drive mostly short trips.

Ram C/V data analysis

What the Ram C/V schedule is built from

Ram C/V oil interval: 7,500 miles. Site-wide average is 7,500, so this model runs exactly on it. Full-synthetic-era interval for a naturally aspirated engine. The figure is derived from 2 recorded configurations across 1 model years (2015-2015), averaging 6.0 cylinders on a 3.6L engine.

Year-to-year changes

The Ram C/V schedule is unchanged across 2015-2015: same powertrain family, same 7,500-mile oil interval, same 6,000-mile rotation every year on file. A 2015 and a 2015 get serviced identically.

Transmission and driveline fluid

Automatic transmission fluid: 60,000-100,000 miles, $200-$450 at an independent shop. "Lifetime fluid" claims mean the fluid lasts the warranty, not the car.

What a year of Ram C/V maintenance costs

Budget about $280 a year at 12,000 miles: 1.6 oil services at roughly $90 each, plus rotation, filters and inspection. Shop labour runs $95-$175 an hour independent, and dealer rates run 30-60% above that.

When to halve these intervals

Severe duty is not off-roading — it is short trips under 10 minutes, sub-freezing starts, stop-and-go traffic and roof-rack loads. That is most commuting. Cut oil, transmission and differential intervals in half if two or more apply. The owner's manual is the authority for warranty purposes; these figures are what the hardware actually wants.

Frequently Asked Questions About C/V Maintenance

How often does a Ram C/V need an oil change?

The Ram C/V needs an oil and filter change every 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. Full-synthetic-era interval for a naturally aspirated engine.

What is the Ram C/V maintenance schedule by mileage?

tire rotation every 6,000 miles, engine oil & filter every 7,500 miles, brake pad & rotor inspection every 15,000 miles, cabin air filter every 15,000 miles, engine air filter every 20,000 miles, brake fluid every 30,000 miles, automatic transmission fluid every 45,000 miles. That is 54 separate service events in the first 100,000 miles for this gasoline automatic transmission configuration. The table above lists every interval with the services that come due at each milestone.

How much does it cost to maintain a Ram C/V?

Costing this model's own interval list at independent-shop rates comes to roughly $2,200–$5,300 over 100,000 miles, or about $220–$530 per 10,000 miles, of which 13 oil and filter changes are the single biggest recurring line. Tires (typically every 40,000–60,000 miles) sit on top of that. Ask your shop to quote against the interval list above rather than an upsold "package".

Is skipping a service on the Ram C/V a problem?

Some intervals are forgiving and some are not. Cabin filters and wiper blades are comfort items, but on this configuration the expensive ones to defer are brake fluid, coolant and automatic transmission fluid. The item that comes due most often here is tire rotation at every 6,000 miles. Keep records — a documented service history also protects resale value and warranty claims.
