Additional Notes
- The Dodge Stratus, JR (USA/CAN) cooling system capacity varies noticeably across engine configurations, ranging from 7.5 liters in the 2.4 16V up to 10 liters in the 2.0 16V.
- The 2.0 16V engine carries the largest coolant capacity among the three, at 10 liters, which reflects the greater total volume of the cooling circuit surrounding that engine block and associated components.
- The 2.4 16V holds 7.5 liters of coolant, the smallest capacity across all three engine variants listed for the 2000-2006 model years.
- The 2.7 V6 24V sits between the two four-cylinder engines at 9 liters, a capacity consistent with the larger displacement and additional cylinder count of a V6 configuration.
- All three engine variants share an identical service interval of 102,000 miles or 60 months under normal use conditions, meaning the change schedule is uniform regardless of engine size or cylinder count.
- The 60-month time limit on the coolant change interval means a calendar-based threshold applies alongside the mileage figure, so whichever of the two is reached first would govern the service point under normal use.
- A 102,000-mile coolant change interval is associated with long-life coolant formulations, which are designed to maintain corrosion inhibitor effectiveness over extended periods compared to conventional coolant types.
