Googling THAT spec, i get this other Thread @ the same Dart Forum:
Oil for out Engines...
which on page 5 has this posted:
"anyway i have the new manual that has the correct 4qt oil volume and 10,000mi change interval. the book has no reference to a chrysler standard anymore... just says api oil that is 5w-40.. so i checked the digital manual.. now it no longer says 12991, nor 10896.... now it says 10-725 which is very common.... so no worries about oil... just grab something off the shelf and put it in..."
so... yeah...
My Dart 1.4 Turbo is a 2013 the owners manual says this
Engine Oil Selection – 1.4L Turbo Engine
For best performance and maximum protection for all
engines under all types of operating conditions, the
manufacturer recommends engine oils that are API Certified
and meet the requirements of Chrysler Material
Standard MS-12991.
