So 5w-30 is what the 2015 uses. Just got mine so havent changed the oil yet as it was done just before I bought it.

What filter model #s or preference does everyone have? I am assuming these are like mustangs and everyone has their favorite one.

TIA

I think the vast majority of members use the Motorcraft Fl -500s oil filter but ultimately it's a personal preference. Z

I re read your original post. I know amsoil can be a premium sometimes, but if you find a greatocsl dealer, they sometimes don't charge for shipping. Also, I've been running over 22 lbs of boost all summer on 94 octane and not a hiccup. Oil is clean, temps are good. I should clarify, peak boost is over 22. About 17 lbs steady wot. Starts are smooth. Idle is smooth. I'm sure you know most of this already. High quality oils are very similar when compared on a molecular level, but for me, it's amsoil every time.

Motorcraft OEM Oil Filter.

I bought her at 27,500 miles and changed the oil right away. Dont care that it was just changed since she was certified used. I have 3 oil changes since then. I am at 33,500ish.

Oil changes are so inexpensive. Less than $30 with filter. I like to do them well before the Ford recommended OCI.  I guess you could say I do them around every 4 months regardless of the miles.

The trans was changed and the PTU has been flushed twice. Just in case.......
