★ Top Answer
The 2012 Ford Explorer requires SAE 5w-30 full synthetic oil with a capacity of 5.7 quarts to maintain the engine's internal lubrication and cleanliness, ensuring optimal performance. An oil change for the Explorer typically costs between $40 and $50 for labor and between $80 and $100 for parts. It is recommended to schedule an oil change every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever occurs first. Warning signs that signal the need for an oil change include engine noises, transmission problems, idling vibrations, exhaust smoke, decreased fuel efficiency, and the illumination of the Check Engine or Oil Change warning lights.
