The 300 (2005 to 2023) is Chrysler's rear-drive full-size sedan on the LX and LD platforms. Engines include 2.7-, 3.5- and 3.6-liter V6s and the 5.7- and 6.4-liter HEMI V8s, with an 8-speed automatic from 2012 and available all-wheel drive.


Model year 2017 is part of the second-generation 300 (LD) (2011–2023). Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but engines, options and wiring changed from year to year, so the manual is made for the 2017 model year.
Check the model year on your VIN: on a 2017 vehicle the 10th character of the 17-digit VIN is “H”. Vehicles built for North America always carry the model year in that position; on some European or Australian vehicles it may be left unused, so in that case go by the registration papers or the build plate.
At about 9 years old, a 2017 vehicle often needs work on the cooling system, timing components, suspension bushings, motor mounts and corroded electrical connectors, all jobs where the exact factory procedure and torque values save time.
