In America, for a 2010 Ford F-150, the recommended oil type and capacity is 5w-20 and 6 quarts. It's important to change your oil when needed – typically every 5,000 to 10,000 miles is a good guideline. Neglecting to change the oil can lead to engine issues. Using high-quality oil is crucial for a smooth engine operation. Eventually, oil-related problems may arise, such as a foul burning odor, which should be addressed promptly to prevent potential engine damage. Poor quality oil can result in engine failure and decreased fuel efficiency, as well as the onset of knocking noises from the engine.
I've got 170,000 in my truck. Which oil should I use?
To ensure the longevity of your 2010 Ford F-150's engine and preserve its warranty, utilize Motorcraft SAE 5W-20 oil or a comparable SAE 5W-20 oil that complies with Ford's WSS-M2C930-A specification. For a 4.6L engine, fill with 6.0 quarts, while a 5.4L engine requires 7.0 quarts.
