The Lincoln LS3 from 2006 comes with a 6-cylinder engine that requires 6.9 US quarts of 5W-20 oil along with a filter. For optimal maintenance, it is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if you are using synthetic oil; if using conventional oil, the interval should be every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months. Synthetic oil offers benefits such as improved lubrication, longer time between maintenance checks, and better performance in extreme weather conditions. Thinner synthetic oils flow more easily in cold temperatures, providing superior protection against friction and rust for engine components. The cost of a lube and filter service typically ranges between $100 and $150 for parts and labor.
A 2005 Lincoln LS with a V6 engine requires full synthetic 5W-20 motor oil.
