[QUOTE="Alex Gonzalez, post: 681462, member: 59455"] I think you'll be getting a lot of varying opinions here--most of which will all be good. I change my oil and oil filter every 5k (give or take a few hundred miles). I'm just under 36k on my '03 and just changed my oil/filter yesterday. Since my first oil/filter change I've been using Valvoline 5w30 (5 qts) and the Motorcraft FL-820S filter. You'll get a lot of recommendations for Mobil 1 synthetic as well as Royal Purple. As I start to get into the higher mileage range (60k/75k), I will be switching to a synthetic oil. I guess I should point out that I decided to use Valvoline as I noticed many dealer service shops were using it--though I think most, if not all, Ford service shops will use Motorcraft oil. And btw... the Motorcraft filter can be found at Wal*Mart for pretty cheap. [/QUOTE]
