Hi everyone!
For some reason my 2018 Mustang GT 2018 PP1 officially imported via Ford Brazil dealerships

Now they are going to contact Ford Engineering for instructions.
I intend to change to 5w30, but I'll wait for their answer prior to it.
Car has now 6.300 km.

PRECISELY!!!

HAS ALWAYS SHOWED FULL MARK (upper mark).
This 2018 Mustang GT is the first car I have that reads "right in the middle" of dipstick.
THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS...
HI.
Thank you for your quick answer.
My concern is also this: the manual says to check the dipstick AFTER 15 MINUTES of normally operating the vehicle.
And some people say that the reading is not the same when cold and i should add more oil.
