I use Pennzoil Platinum or Ultra Platinum 5W-30 and the FL400S or an equivalent filter.
Ford parts reviews
Mobil 1, Valvoline, or Motorcraft. Ive used them all and have no complaints so far, usually i use Mobil 1 since i can find the 6 qt box for a decent price at Costco.
I use Valvoline Extended Protection Full Synthetic 5W-30.
Very good on engines and your turbo especially (i have a 2014 st3)
I personally use Mobil 1. They all do basically the same thing if you're changing it often enough. I change mine between 3-5k miles typically.
I use Castrol as it’s the OEM product and is cheap if you buy direct from Ford.
I have a 2011 Escape Hybrid 2.5L with about 175,000 kms. I run Valvoline Advanced 0W-20 full synthetic as recommended by my mechanic. I've found it much better on fuel economy in colder weather than the 5W-20 for multi-seasonal use, especially in colder weather regions (I live in BC, Canada).
I got 50k out of a set of OEM LS-2’s on my AWD Ford Fusion. Not a Goodyear guy at all, but these tires were very good.
Rotella T6 5w-40. No difference in fuel mileage or anything.
I’ve got the Falken Wildpeaks on a 2008 F350 Dually and they’re ok on dry roads. I put them on all seven wheels 6 + the spare) in 2019 and do regular rotations. Today while pulling one to get a slow leak fixed I noticed substantial weather checking down between the lugs; it concerns me, even though it’s been 3.5 years I’m nowhere near the 50,000 miles tread wear warranty. I’ll add these tires really suck in any kind of slick mud and snow/ice on or off the road. Terrible on ice and snow.
I have a 2021 BS BB and I’m on my 3rd water pump replacement. 1st one around 20k miles, 2nd at 40k, now at the dealer with 51k miles and replacing it yet again.
