Practical maintenance tips
- Use the correct oil grade as recommended for your engine (for example, 5W-20 or 5W-30, depending on the engine and climate).
- Replace the oil filter at each drain to ensure proper filtration and capacity accuracy.
- Record the exact capacity for your VIN if you service the car yourself to avoid under- or over-filling.
To ensure accuracy when servicing, consult Ford's official documentation or a dealership for the precise oil capacity for your vehicle's VIN and market.
How to check and top up oil
Use the dipstick to check oil level when the engine is cool, then top up in small increments until the level sits between the “Add” and “Full” marks. Avoid overfilling, which can cause engine sludging or oil aeration.

Capacities can vary by engine variant and market, so always verify with the owner's manual or under-hood label for your specific vehicle.
