ENGINE OIL

Engine oil change
Ford Motor Company recommends
the use of Ford/Motorcraft
Formula E SAE 5W-30 engine oil.
The engine in your vehicle was
designed to use this oil. For
optimum performance, this oil
should be used.
Alternative engine oils with the
viscosity SAE 5W-30 meeting the
requirements of Ford Specification
WSS-M2C913-B may also be used.
Engine oil top-up
If you are unable to find an oil that
meets this specification, you must
use an oil of the viscosity
SAE 5W-30, SAE 5W-40 or
SAE 10W-40, according to ambient
temperatures, meeting the
requirements of either
ACEA A1/B1 or ACEA A3/B3
specifications. Use of these oils may
result in longer cranking periods,
reduced engine performance,
reduced fuel economy, and
increased emission levels.
Ford Dealers are kept up to date
regarding changes and
improvements to the recommended
oils.
Your Ford Dealer will be pleased to
help you if you need further advice
or information.
