The 2010 Ford Mustang with a 4.6 liter V8 engine requires 6 US quarts of 5W-20 motor oil. The 4.0 liter V6 version needs 5 US quarts of 5W-30 oil, while the Mustang GT 500 with a 5.4 liter V8 engine requires 6.4 US quarts of 5W-50 oil. It is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic oil, and every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months if using conventional oil. Synthetic oil offers advantages such as improved lubrication, longer service intervals, and better performance in extreme weather conditions, especially cold temperatures. Name-brand oils like Penzoil or Castrol are known to provide double the protection and corrosion prevention compared to aftermarket options. The cost for an oil change and filter replacement on a Ford Mustang typically ranges from $115 to $130 for parts and labor.
