The 1.6-liter engine in the 2013 Ford Focus uses 5.4 liters (5.7 quarts) of SAE 5W-20 synthetic motor oil, which is slightly thinner than 5W-30. This oil is known for its ability to improve fuel efficiency. Ford suggests changing the oil either every 7,500 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. If you have a long commute at low speeds or live on a dirt road, you may need to change the oil more frequently. Your car has an oil life indicator that will signal when it's time for an oil change. You must reset the indicator to 100% after the oil change. Dealerships typically charge around $110 to $130 to replace the oil, with labor costing around $50 of the total.
The oil volume for the 1.6 Tdci engine in a 2013 Ford Focus is detailed as 3.8 liters or 4 U.S. quarts.
