A 2019 Chrysler Pacifica with the 3.6-liter V6 engine typically requires about 5 quarts of engine oil when performing a standard oil change, including the oil filter.
Official oil capacity
The following specification applies to the standard 3.6L V6 engine used in the 2019 Pacifica family (including variants with eTorque). This figure reflects oil capacity with a new filter installed.
- 5.0 quarts (4.7 liters) of engine oil with filter
Note: Some sources may cite slight variations depending on whether the engine is serviced with or without a new filter; always verify by checking the dipstick after refilling and consult the owner's manual for your exact configuration.
Hybrid considerations
The Pacifica Hybrid uses the same basic 3.6-liter V6 architecture, and its oil capacity is generally the same target (about 5 quarts with a filter). Always confirm the precise specification in the hybrid owner's manual, as maintenance notes can differ by drivetrain.
Oil type and maintenance recommendations
To ensure proper lubrication and engine longevity, use the recommended oil grade and specification.
- Viscosity: 5W-20 (full synthetic or synthetic blend is commonly recommended)
- Specification: API SN or newer; synthetic oil is typically advised by Chrysler for this engine
Always verify the exact oil type and specification in the owner's manual or on the under-hood label for your vehicle’s specific year, trim, and drivetrain.
Maintenance intervals and practical tips
Oil-change intervals vary by driving conditions and oil type. The following guidelines reflect typical practice for this vehicle with synthetic oil, but you should follow your manual or service reminders.
- Normal driving: about every 7,500 miles (12,000 kilometers) or 12 months, whichever comes first
- Severe or frequent short trips, heavy towing, or extreme conditions: more frequent changes (often around 3,000–5,000 miles / 5,000–8,000 kilometers)
Regular oil checks between changes—via dipstick level and color—can help you avoid lapsed lubrication. If you notice oil consumption or leaks, have the vehicle inspected promptly.
Summary
The 2019 Chrysler Pacifica’s engine oil capacity is 5 quarts with a filter for the standard 3.6L V6 (and likely the Hybrid as well). Use 5W-20 oil, preferably synthetic or synthetic blend, and follow the maintenance schedule in the owner’s manual for the exact interval. Always confirm capacity and specifications for your exact model/year configuration.
