1 st oil change ?

[CON VERT]

What's everyone take on when to get the 1st oil change, I've heard everything from flushing it out after the 1st - 1000 Kms too leaving it in because it's breakin oil ? & should be left in for 5000 Kms ? car currently has 3,000 km's on it ! Appreciate and advice & do Coyote motors like syn oil or regular dino ?? (will be done at the dealer so may not have much choice)

[ZR]

Did mine when the oil started to go dark / level had dropped which was 2300 ish kms.

[CON VERT]

^^^^ U using full synthetic ? & what grade ?

[ZR]

Refilled with 10w30 full syn plus a Ford filter. Approx 4,ooo kms since, virtually zero in the catch can, oil level is full and has only just started to change color. Keep in mind, it's done two full track days on that oil as well.

[CON VERT]

^^^ Thanks , hoping the dealer won't balk at the 10-30 instead of the 5-20 that Ford recommends ~

[CON VERT]

WOW, Covid prices ~ $169 for a oil change with synthetic, would not do 10 -30, so I had to settled for 5-30 which still falls under warranty spec's ! go figure~

$169?
I’ve been told to get with the program( modern pricing)

[CON VERT]

^^^^ I am coming from doing my own, so yea its a little of sticker shock , I did notice that it does take 10 quarts ~ (9.5 liters ) so that would raise the price +full synthetic

I use full synthetic oil in my 2018 and it costs close to $200

[ZR]

Huh, mine was around $65 all in, ya I know a guy.

[xeninworx]

I do my own. Costs me oil and filter. It’s so much easier to do the Mustang than my Honda Civic Si. The oil filter is in the front of the motor on the Mustang and easily accessible. The Civic, was at the back of the motor and I had to turn my wheels to the right and reach into the wheel well to grab the filter. The Accord is just as easy as the Mustang. It’s at the bottom of the motor. Once you remove the metal panel under the car it’s right there.

[CON VERT]

^^^ I used to, but getting a little long in the tooth, also need proof of oil changes etc, I don't think the dealership will accept that I did my own oil changes, if there is any warranty work is involved , they are looking for an excuse these days, I used to be a Service Advisor & S/A's are supposed to up sell, especially on warranty work ~

[ZR]

^ Warranty is not worth the paper it's printed on.

[CON VERT]

I have to agree with you , but there are times that it does pay for some stuff ???

[ZR]

For sure.

That's crazy oil capacity for a 5.0 engine, I had no idea. My 8.0 Viper V10 only takes 8 quarts and its oil pan is huge

[Darkhorse]

5w50 in the yotes full syn

[LX89]

I still change my oil/filter myself and always have,never once had it done at a garage.
I never pay full price for synthetic oil.

It's on sale every week.
