Well, I’ve decided what I’m going to do. I am going to use Mag1 Ful Synthetic of course since I am such a big fan. I will be filling 4 quarts of 5W30 like the manual says and the remaining 1.7 quarts with the 0W20. I want to get a little bit of that zero startup value in there to help cold...
I apologize as well if I came across hostile. We should all be brothers of sorts on this nice Mustang forum. I have owned and loved Mustangs since 1977 and am 56 years old now. I was searching YouTube some time ago about what’s the best oil to use. Trying to get opinions and this one video the...
I doubt I could do that but, I think everybody already knows clean oil is safer to run than dirty oil.
Wow, such hostility here. No wonder I haven’t frequented Mustang forums for a long time. Ya’ll have a nice day and enjoy your Mustangs!
Just noticed something in my wife’s 2014 Escape owner’s manual. Her engine is the 2.0L Ecoboost and the manual calls for 5W30. The 1.6L and 2.5L both call for 5W20. That is a smaller and larger engine calling for 5W20. So, her 2.0 2014 engine and my new 2018 2.3 engine call for 5W30. Strange...
I’ve spent plent of time at bobs. I’d rather have clean oil in my engine than dirty oil. Hate to break it to you but, clean oil is safer than dirty oil.
Yes, the Mobil 1 wasn’t 0W20. It was 5W20. Either way, Mag1 stayed cleaner longer. Mag1 is really good stuff. Yes, when oil gets darker, it’s doing it’s job. Oil that stays cleaner long is doing an even better job. Oil life monitor was waaay different with Mag1 so, the oil life monitor knows...
Well, Mag1 makes a 5W30 so, I guess I’d be safest with that. They don’t make a 0W30 so, bummer. Maybe in the future with all these turbo engines being produced nowadays.
It didn’t increase my gas mileage as much as Mag1 full synthetic or last as long on the oil life monitor or stay clean as long. When I traded the 2011 V6 I had Mag1 in there with just over 4000 miles with the oil life monitor still saying 100% left. Yes, it could be stuck but, I pulled the...
I was using Mag1 Fully Synthetic 0W20 in the 2011 V6 Mustang convertible I traded in for the new 2018 Ecoboost. It was terrific oil Better than Mobil 1 and any other I’ve tried. I am going to buy some Mag1 full synthetic 5W30 as recommended but, want to blend it about 50/50 with 5W20. Any oil...
I just bought a Ruby Red Ecoboost with the 201A package. I personally think the 12” digital gauge cluster is the best option out there. The 2 main things we look at inside the interior when we are driving are the gauges/speedometer and navigation. Love these. Adaptive cruise control/safe &...
Around 35 mpg for the automatic ecoboost would be attractive to me. The whole point of getting the ecoboost would be the fuel savings. Otherwise, my 2012 V6 Mustang is looking good.
