OEM FORD Oil filter

I had a 2007 Taurus. Oil leakage was the main issue. Get it up on a rack at your favorite service shop and get the oil leaks taken care of. Oil filter is above the starter, so if you are having starter issues, look to see if there is an oil leak on the starter.

Pros: engine will last
Cons: oil leakage issue
Vehicle: Ford Taurus

OEM FORD Tires
phillip_esiri
  • Ride comfort:
Rating 4.0

I did it last winter (edit I may have had 245/60/r18, so taller tire but not wider). They fit, but you definitely cant go any bigger. Minimal clearance of shocks on the front wheels plenty of space at the back. Probably threw off the speedometer a bit, did slightly raise the vehicle.

Pros: They fit, raised vehicle
Cons: minimal shock clearance

Toyo Tires

My 2016 Ford Taurus has Toyo Celsius on it and they’re an all-season tire. They have snow treads on the inside half of the tread-face and highway treads on the outside half. Very nice for icy and snowy Montana roads and I don’t have to switch them out between winter and summer

Pros: nice for icy roads
Vehicle: Ford Taurus

Duralast Brake pads

I'm only now replacing the pads & rotors *for the first time* during my ownership. The rotors won't pass inspection, but I'm shocked to find that the pads still have 7/32"-8/32" left. As it turns out, I've been running Duralast Gold rotors & Duralast Elite pads the entire time.

That's a phenomenal track record for the amount of "spirited" road I put past this car.

Pros: long lasting, phenomenal track record
Cons: rotors won't pass inspection
Vehicle: Ford Taurus
Mileage: 130000 km

MICHELIN Tires

I’ve got a 2013 Ford Taurus limited, and I’ve got the crossclimate 2’s on her. Beat tires I’ve ever had. They’re a little expensive, but they’re well worth it. They’re designed to push snow and rain away from your vehicle. Stoping power even in the snow is great.

Pros: stopping power is great
Cons: a little expensive

KYB Strut assembly
drttrus
  • Bounce:
Rating 3.0

Ride height went up by 2” on the new struts, I’m not surprised the KYB equipment looks like it’s sitting taller.

Pros: ride height went up

MICHELIN Tires

The o.e. tires where Continental Conti's but these results are from the present Michelin's. I didn't have the Conti's on long and unfortunately I never closely watched the MPG before going to the Michelins. the Conti's were slippery feeling and I see they are rated LRR, which I knew nothing about at the time. The mpg dropped w/ the Michelins... especially with lower pressure.

Cons: mpg dropped, lower pressure

OEM FORD Brake pads
bleedblue
  • Braking:
Rating 1.0

I can't believe the brakes used here, this is after all the 'Sport' model out of the Taurus lineup so therefor it should have received a better braking setup.

Cons: poor braking setup
