Engine oil and filter recommendations

Look for this certification mark.

Ford oil specification is WSS-M2C153-G.

Use SAE 5W-30 motor oil certified for gasoline engines by the American

Petroleum Institute.

Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, oil treatments or engine

treatments. They are unnecessary and could, under certain conditions,

lead to engine damage which is not covered by your warranty.

Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriate schedule

listed in the Scheduled Maintenance Guide.

Ford production and aftermarket (Motorcraft) oil filters are designed for

added engine protection and long life. If a replacement oil filter is used

that does not meet Ford material and design specifications, startup

engine noises or knock may be experienced.

It is recommended you use the appropriate Motorcraft oil filter (or

another brand meeting Ford specifications) for your engine application.

BRAKE FLUID

Checking and adding brake fluid

Brake fluid should be checked and

refilled as needed. Refer to the

Scheduled Maintenance Guide for

the service interval schedules:

1. Clean the reservoir cap before

removal to prevent dirt or water

from entering the reservoir.
