The 2017 Lincoln MKZ requires SAE 5W-30 motor oil. Lincoln suggests using fully synthetic oil for optimal performance and longevity. Synthetic oil is specially formulated to provide superior lubrication compared to conventional oil, which is extracted from the ground. Generally, synthetic oil should be changed every 7,500 miles, while conventional oil may need to be changed every 3,500 to 5,000 miles. It's important to regularly check the oil level and cleanliness to ensure proper maintenance and prevent engine damage. If there is debris in the oil, it should be replaced promptly.
The 2017 Lincoln MKZ should use Motorcraft engine oil XO-5W30-5Q3SP, which is a synthetic blend.
I prefer using synthetic oil for my vehicle.
