The 2011 Ford Escape comes with a 3.0-liter V6 engine that uses 6 US quarts of 5W-30 oil, while its 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine requires 5 US quarts of 5W-20 oil. It is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months for conventional oil. Synthetic oil offers advantages such as improved lubrication, longer service intervals, and better performance in harsh weather conditions compared to conventional oil. Thinner viscosity oil moves more effectively in cold weather, protecting engine parts from friction and corrosion. A typical oil change for a Subaru Impreza costs between $112-$130 for parts and labor.
