[QUOTE="KentheREALone Z, post: 753444, member: 65390"] Soliciting comments; I own an 07 ST V8 4x4 and an 07 Mustang GT V8. Both require the same oil and filter (I think the oil is 5W-20). This past summer I put Mobil 1 (6 qts. each) and a Motorcraft filter (FL-820S) in each V8. In the last few months I noticed lifter tap in both V8's. I likely did not notice it in the summer due to the windows up and a/c on. I just changed the oil again to Castrol Syntec, with the same Motorcraft filter. No lifter tap. I've been a dedicated Castrol GTX user for 30 years. I only used the Mobil 1 because Syntec was not available at the time. Anyone else had this same experience? [/QUOTE]
