Oil filter AMSOIL or OEM FORD
Every 4500-5000 miles with Amsoil Signature and Amsoil filter. Do it yourself, it\u2019s not hard and you can be assured no corners were cut. Don\u2019t go beyond 5000 miles. The 3.5L is really hard on oil. It\u2019s cheap insurance.
Pros: cheap insurance
Mileage: 8047 km
I only run Amsoil fluids and filters. Never had any issues and I track my 17' mostly. \n\nI dont use amsoil brake fluid though. Castrol SRF React is the best brake fluid for dry and wet boiling points. But its pricey
Pros: no issues, good for tracking
Cons: pricey
I just go to the amsoil website and get the oil that they suggest, I've taken cars well over 200k with that advice. Don't overthink it. If you don't want to use amsoil for the oil, at least see if they have a low micron oil filter.
Pros: cars well over 200k
Mileage: 321869 km
I use Amsoil Signature Series & OEM filter.
Just change it every 6,000km and you’ll be good. Use synthetic, but brand isn’t as important as proper drain intervals.
Pros: Amsoil Signature Series, OEM filter
Mileage: 6000 km
OEM ford filter will be better then you will get at most oil changes spots and the same if you pay the dealership
Pros: better quality
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
I was having the same noise on cold startup with an aftermarket filter and switched back to the fomoco filter and it went away. Something to do with a drain valve in the filter. The ford one is silicone and some of the aftermarket ones arent and it can cause problems.
Pros: noise went away, silicone valve
I personally use the Ford motorcraft OEM filters in the largest size that fits cleanly with a similar bypass pressure.
Every 5000 miles, it's time for 16 quarts of oil and a filter the approximate size of a Nalgene bottle.
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 5000 km
1995 ford crown Vic, you have to turn the wheels to remove the filter.
Pros: turn wheels to remove
Vehicle:
Ford Crown Victoria
Raise you a 3.0 ford taurus, which dumped all of the dirty oil right onto the starter.

Cons: dirty oil on starter
Vehicle:
Ford Taurus
Mileage: 60000 km
