Ford parts reviews

Mobil-1 guy myself, at least so far. No issues, good price

Mobil 1, it’s better than 99% and you can get 4 quarts for $27 at Walmart.

Hab auf meinem Ford Fusion Goodyear Vector 4Season (Gen-2, gibt mittlerweile Gen-3) montiert. Grippen meiner Meinung nach gut, auch auf Schnee kein Problem.

I put them on my F150 and I love them. I decided to put them on my CRV too. Looks like my CRV took a hit in terms of fuel economy, but I noticed the tire shop underinflated them. Now that I put the recommended pressure, my range gauge might go down at a slower pace and eventually settle. Funny thing is they perform better than my winter tires in slush.

Just had a Gates one put on, no complaints here. One note to mention is that the water pump pulley seems to sometimes not seat on to the shaft perfectly. When mine got done I noticed that the pump pulley wobbled around excessively. The shop took it back, removed the belt, retorqued and all was good. The technician said that weird lining up with a pump pulley is a Honda thing, never knew that fiestas had that too.

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum in my 2016 Focus ST. It seems to love it. Quieter idle, great gas mileage, drives smoother after a cold start.

Full synthetic Motorcraft for my Shelby, Roush, SHO, and Focus 1.0 ecoboost.

Ford performance oil filter for the Shelby. Motorcraft for the others.

Why? I had a Ford tech tell me any and all problems they'd ever seen with a Shelby engine involved one that used non-Motorcraft brand in engine or filter.

I was having the intermittent no start on my 2018 5.0 F150. I’m at roughly 42K miles. Swapped battery, still had the issue. Swapped starter, now starting and remote start back to normal. I feel like a starter should last more than 40K.

The 3.5 5th generation Explorer has an internal water pump driven by the timing chain. It’s an enormous pain to change requiring significant disassembly (nearly 12 hours of labor) and generally includes replacing the timing chain in the process since you’re already in there, plus when it fails it can easily mix the coolant with the oil and destroy the engine, all that’s keeping them apart is a little seal.

At 70,000miles it started making a water sound right after turning it off. Months later I noticed a white smoke coming from the tail pipe. One day it gave me that code and started sputtering. Turns out the head gasket had cracked and was letting coolant into my engine pistons. It flooded it. I needed a whole engine replaced.
