Ford suggests switching the oil in your 2017 Transit every 3,000 to 5,000 miles when using conventional oil, or every 10,000 miles if using a synthetic blend. The vehicle comes filled with conventional oil, but you have the option to switch to synthetic, which offers longer intervals between oil changes despite being more expensive. When changing the oil, it is advisable to use SAE 5w30 viscosity and ensure you add 5.7 quarts for a complete fill. Depending on your climate, you may consider changing the oil weights accordingly.
The recommended mileage for an oil change in a 2017 Ford Transit is 10,000 miles. However, if your vehicle is inactive for extended periods, it is advisable to change it before hitting the 10,000-mile mark.
It all comes down to what kind of driving is typically done.
