Any idea what the factory fill will be in the 2.7l? What is the OCI as recommended by Ford?

The owners manual recommends 5W-30 Synthetic Blend (6 quarts). Interval is 3,000 - 10,000 miles, depending on driving conditions.

A blend huh? I guess the OCI depends on "severe use" etc. like most owners manuals suggest. I'd probably split the difference and go 5k. I go 3750 on the Kia with Pennzoil YB. Thanks for the reply!

OCI is calculated by the car's computer based on a number of factors such as number of cold starts, RPMs, idling, etc.

The manual also lists full synthetic as optional. I'll be running Mobile 1 and motorcraft/purolator filter with 5-6k intervals.

I'll be on Mobil 1 and Motorcraft filter at 7500 miles (+/-) obviously.
