What type of oil does a 1993 Plymouth Grand Voyager use?

Question

I recently bought a 1993 Plymouth Grand Voyager but I can't find anywhere that says what kind of oil it takes. I don't have an owner's manual and it doesn't say on the engine.

Answer 1

Most modern engines are designed to take 5W30 oil. The only reason to go with 10W30 is if you live in Arizona, Southern Florida or anywhere else where it stays hot year-round.

As far as brands, it doesn't matter, go with whatever brand you like. Many people have their own preference on brand, but they all meet certain specifications. Any oil you buy today is going to exceed the standards that were in place in '93, so no worries there.

If you change the oil regularly, no need to spend the extra money for high mileage engine oil, it's just a gimmick to remove more money from your wallet. It will not fix any damage from past negligence, and will not prevent wear any more than any other oil on the market.

Answer 3

Check your oil. It could be low, and you never want to use your car with a low amount of oil. You see, on cars older like these, the lights will come on and off. When your car's engine accelerates, it builds up enough oil pressure in your engine to circulate the oil to provide enough circulation. When you stop accelerating, the oil pressure goes back down and your oil stops circulating as much, so your car's computer indicates you are low on oil. You are probably only low a little bit, probably about a quart, so add o 5w-30. If your oil level is normal, then take your car to a mechanic.

Answer 4

10w-30 most likely and since its an older vehicle try Syntec High Mileage or any other High Mileage motor oil....prevents engine wear.

Answer 5

5w-20 oil that meets Chrysler Material Standard MS-6395 on the oil container.

Answer 6

the eingine was designed for 10w30 or 5w30, depending on your climate. 5w30 if colder. everyone else will now give their opinion, but i personally reccommend valvoline.
