The Crossfire was arguably Chrysler’s most misunderstood model vehicle. Produced during the union of Daimler and Chrysler, it shares 80% of its components with the Mercedes-Benz SLK320. Under the hood, it sports a 3.2L M112 E32 V6 engine, producing 215 horsepower and 229 lb-ft of torque. Crossfires were available in Limited and Base trim levels as well as a supercharged SRT6 model. This article covers a 2004 Limited model. Because of their rarity and primarily Mercedes-Benz construction, paying a dealership or service center to change the oil can be hit-or-miss. Luckily, changing the oil yourself is straightforward, easy, and rewarding, even if you’ve never ventured under a car before.
