FAQs

Which motor oil does my Ford need?

Your Owner’s Manual breaks it down, but we’ll handle that for you during your visit and make sure your vehicle gets the correct oil grade.

How much should I expect to pay for an oil change?

The cost typically falls between $35 and $125, with location and oil type affecting the final number. Synthetic oil is more costly, but it lasts longer and gives the engine more protection.

Is it safe to keep driving if my oil is low?

Not at all. Low oil means the engine isn’t being lubricated properly, and the internal parts start making direct contact. That friction causes rapid damage, and the engine can overheat or lock up without much warning. If oil pressure drops far enough, the engine can seize completely.

Should I spend the extra money on full synthetic oil?

In most situations, yes. Full synthetic oil is engineered to perform better under stress, protect the engine longer, and resist breakdown in extreme temperatures. If you drive a newer vehicle or spend a lot of time towing, commuting, or driving in stop-and-go traffic, synthetic oil can help extend engine life and reduce long-term wear.

How often should I change my oil?

Most modern Ford vehicles use the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor System that tracks driving conditions and tells you when service is due. Even with that feature, checking the dipstick now and then is a good idea.

Should I change the oil filter every time?

Yes—running clean oil through a clean filter supports better performance and longer engine life. Follow the intervals in your Owner’s Manual or let the OLS guide your schedule.
