For the 2018 Ford Edge, using synthetic motor oil is recommended for different engine sizes. The 2.0 L 4-cylinder and 2.7 L V6 require 5W-30 synthetic oil, while the 3.5 L V6 needs 5W-20 synthetic oil. The oil capacity varies, with the 2.0 L engine needing 5.7 quarts, the 2.7 L engine requiring 6 quarts, and the 3.5 L engine also needing 6 quarts. Synthetic oil is created artificially using chemical compounds and contains fewer impurities compared to conventional oil. It is crucial for keeping the engine clean and functioning smoothly. It is recommended to change the oil and filter every 7,500 to 10,000 miles to maintain engine health, as oil degrades over time. Typically, an oil change costs between $40 to $60 in labor, plus additional charges for parts.
Actually, Ford recommends using sae 5w-20 oil for your car. You can find this information on the cap located under the hood.

Hey there. Sorry for the mistake, but to cut to the chase, if you use non-synthetic oil in a vehicle, should you get it flushed out?
Hello, I was informed that a person required an oil change. They went to a nearby shop, but they weren't sure which type of oil to use. The shop ended up using conventional oil instead of synthetic oil for the change. Should the conventional oil be drained and replaced with the correct synthetic oil?
