For nearly all Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks from 2007.5 onward, the 6.7 Cummins oil capacity is 12 quarts with a filter change. Some newer models and cab and chassis variants may differ, so always verify with your owner's manual. Use 15W-40 or 5W-40 synthetic oil meeting API CK-4 specs and quality filters like Fleetguard.
A well-maintained 6.7L Powerstroke can last 200,000 to 300,000 miles, or about 15–20 years of driving. While highly reliable, especially in 2015+ models, its lifespan relies heavily on strict fluid and fuel filter changes. Common risks include CP4 pump failures and emissions system issues.
Pulling a 6.7 Powerstroke engine is a massive job. Expect to pay between $2,500 and $5,000 for labor alone, while a full engine replacement can reach $25,000. This guide breaks down shop hourly rates, the cab-off method, one-time-use parts, and when an engine pull is actually necessary.
