Engine oil OEM Toyota or OEM FORD

I changed my 24 Camry hybrid at 1500 miles. The oil was BLACK and there were a fair amount of metal fragments in the oil as well. For me, the cost to rid the engine of th ebreak-in metal wear is totally worth the $30 it cost me to do it.

The car care nut says to do it, so I will trust him. My '24 Corolla SE Hybrid is at 802 miles and there is a 5 quart bottle of Mobil One Advanced Fuel Economy full Synthetic 0W-16 and a Mobil One extended performance high capacity filter waiting for tomorrows early oil change.

First 500-1000 miles is probably a good idea since there are likely metal bits left over from the manufacturing process and, although they get cleaned very well, the oil does a much better job of it and you don't want those bits floating around in yiur oil or in your engine itself.

After that, you can change your oil as often as you want as long as its under ~10k miles. Most people recommend 5k miles bc oil will pick up debris and metal shaving and what not and 10k is a bit long to let it go unless you're using a much higher quality filter like amsoil or Mobil 1. Most full synthetic oils will last longer than 10k miles these days, but I wouldn't push it due to the debris it picks up.

I got my first oil change at 1065 miles following Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician youtube personality The Car Care Nut's advice to do the first one at 1000 miles, and will follow a 5000 mile / 6 month schedule going forwards.

We haven\u2019t done anything but oil changes since buying it.

The 2.3 liter engine on a ford ranger takes 6.2 quarts as opposed to my corolla that took less than a gallon for the 1.8 liter engine.

My Ford Freestyle with a 3.0L takes 6 quarts, while my Pontiac Grand Prix with a supercharged 3.8L takes 4.3 quarts. Go figure. I was shocked when I saw how much oil the Ford takes.

my 2011 ford fusion oil cap has 5w-20 but when i put that oil, engine noise become loud. Only 10w-30 noise is lower and engine smooth.

I have a 19 xlt. Love it except for the oil issue.

I mistakenly put 0w20 in ~1000 miles ago, and though my engine hasn't fallen out while I driving I've seen ~5-10% loss in mpgs and it's a little louder than it was with 0w16.
