Body VANEngine 3.0L V6Transmission Automatic 3-spd

The 1995 Plymouth Voyager is a front-wheel-drive van built on Chrysler’s AS platform, powered by a 3.0-liter V6 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. It delivers an EPA-estimated 18 mpg city and 22 mpg highway, and its engine takes 4.5 quarts of 5W-30 oil with a filter change. Within the 1990–2000 generation, complaint volumes peaked in 1992 and then declined, placing this model year after that high point and reflecting a trend toward improved reliability as the Voyager matured.

Fitment & sizes

Replacement part sizes and factory part numbers — battery, bulbs, filters and belts.

From the factory this vehicle uses a BCI 34 · 500 CCA battery, OE oil filter 05281090AB. Note the factory engine air filter, fuel filter, spark plug, front wiper blades, serpentine belt and thermostat are now discontinued — plan on a superseded or quality aftermarket equivalent, which the part pages below list where known. Each part links to every other vehicle that shares it, so a part you already stock may fit more of your fleet than you'd expect.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the spark plugs every 60,000 mi; coolant every 30,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 30,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.
