10 quarts of Mobil1 and a Motorcraft oil filter, FL-500s. A lot of the you ger generation love the new Pennzoil Platinum Ultra full syn, but to each their own. I change mine religiously at 5k on my '20 GT, I'm up to 20k miles, it's has the tick but it's sporadic and hardly noticeable to me.
I can get 5 quarts of Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic at Walmart for $24 and a Fram Ultra Synthetic Oil filter for $11 ($12 for Mobil1 Extended Performance). So, $35 for a change plus Walmart's Tire and Lube will take the used oil (so will all part stores by me).
The extended performance of Mobile 1 or Castrol and I use the extended mobile filter.
Then replace at 10k mi.
DYI. Kirkland synthetic for $18 per 5 quart jug and $12 for a Mobil 1 filter.
Are you opposed to doing it yourself ? Reason I ask is because imo it’s the way to go. You can save $25+ and buy decent oil/filter. I’m at $47 with Mobil 1 oil and filter from Walmart.
If I really care about the car, I use Motul and a factory filter.
I run Mobil 1 5W-30 Extended Performance (high mileage oil, 75k+), and currently Wix XP oil filter. Car runs great at 67k miles and I have 0 codes.
Valvoline Extended Performance full synthetic 0W20 and Mobil 1 M1-108 filter every 5,000 miles.
That kind of looks like it's coming from the oil filter cap. Did you use an oe filter and oring? I had the o-ring leak under boost when I used a mobile one filter with a defective ring. It made a mess sort of like that.
Mobil 1 filters are made by Champion Labs, which they use a louvered center core. The downside is, consistency, as the louvers have a tendency to be not be completely punched open.
