Is 10w30 good for a 2006 charger?
Dodge recommends 5w20 in the HEMI engines, because the higher viscosity of 10w30 can lead to inefficient operation of the MDS, or damage to the engine at hi revs while in MDS mode. It's always best to use the recommended weight of fluids.

Could you use 10w30 oil for a dodge charger?
Answer applies to MDS-equipped engines: Can you? Yes. Should you? Not really. Dodge recommend 5w30 because the heavier oils decrease the efficiencies gained from activating MDS, and can actually cause damage to the inner workings of the engine during MDS operation. The 3.5L does allow the use of 10w30, the 2.7L requires 5w30, while the 5.7L and 6.1L require 5w20.
