★ Top Answer
In 2016, all versions of the Ford Expedition share a 3.5L V6 engine, meaning whether you have the XLT, Limited, King Ranch, or Platinum trim, you will require 6.0 quarts of SAE 5W-30 full synthetic oil. While SAE 5W-40 can be used temporarily if necessary, it is not advisable due to its heavier weight. The first number in the oil's rating represents its viscosity when starting up, and the second number indicates its viscosity at operating temperature. Lower viscosity numbers are preferred to shield your engine from friction and prevent premature wear. It is wise to stick to the manufacturer's recommended oil with the lowest viscosity ratings, even if it means spending a bit more on each oil change.
