Oil filter Motorcraft or Mobil
Every 5k for my fusion. I buy Mobil 1 full synthetic and Mobil or Fram filter from Walmart and do it myself.
My 315k mile powerstroke goes 7500 with no noticeable wear with motorcraft filters
Anyway I always ran Mobil 1 5W-20 full synthetic with their filters and change every 5k, but have since just switched the Costcos brand of oil. Can get it for a pretty good price when it goes on sale so I just stock up. Reviews have said it’s a good quality oil so that’s just what I use.
Do the oil change and use a high-quality filter such as mobil 1 . Then change every 1000 miles.
I use Mobil 1 High Mileage Synthetic along with the Mobil 1 filter.
Motorcraft filter enjoyer here as well. Oil wise i treat mine with mobile 1 5w20 full synthetic high milage. (142k, mgm 2004 atm).
When I still had my Vic, Walmart used to have awesome deals on Mobil 1 oil, so I would get the High Mileage Extended Mileage 5W-20 and then usually just a regular Motorcraft FL-820S filter
This is probably going to get buried, but my quarter of a million mile 2.7 has an issue with oil pressure on initial startup.
Only when it's below 20° Fahrenheit, and only with fram ultra synthetic filters.
I've changed oils a number of of times and it's never made a lick of difference.
However, running a mobil one oil filter has dramatically improved cold start oil pressure.
My two cents, spend money on the filter, get a good deal on the oil that is within spec
I changed my oil filter at the 350 mile mark and upgraded to the Mobil 1 M1-104A oil filter. Just passed 1300 miles and it's doing just fine.
That M1 filter looks like the same media as every other filter I've ever seen on an FSI. The funny looking seal on the ends is useless since it's bathed in oil anyway. The only seal that matters is the one that sits in the housing and since I've never seen it leak I'd say that one is a waste of money
