Change your oil.

Another no brainer video from FTML.

Yeah, anyone who actually knows combustion engines will tell you to change at 5k to 7.5k max miles.

I have always done 5k or 50% according to the oil life which ends up about 5k miles my Ecoboost and never had an issue.

Great info. Anyone know how hard it is to swap those filters for the turbos?

One thing that made me feel a little more comfortable buying my 17 used was the first owner changed the oil every 3.5k miles.
Plan on doing the same level interval.

Swapping the filters would be a slight pain. However, in the video he talks about what normally he sees, and shows examples of screens where the oil was changed at correct intervals. They are not plugged, clear and clean.

I change oil in my vehicles when the odometers turn over another 5000 miles. Easy to remember when it's time- 40K, 45K, 50K etc.

I write the number of quarts needed somewhere underhood so I don't have to look it up.

Everything gets Supertech 5W-30 full syn oil so I only have one type of oil on hand.

I try to keep a stock of filters for each vehicle so I'm not having to go get one every time.

@FordTechOne has been beating this drum for a while. Lesson learned

They aren't a service item, meaning they should last the life of the motor. The motor in the vid above had 220k miles?
