right hand lane at that junction follows through into the 2 lanes into bentley for going straight up north road you should be in the 2 middle lanes signposted wakefield :)

notice the big arrow under your car showing right not straight on and the straight on arrow in the middle :)

i'm assuming you're heading to ford because ford is infront halfords is behind you :) so you've already driven past halfords :) also buy oil and shit from either parkers near footy ground or eurocarparts on wheatly hall road considerably cheaper than halfords and/or ford

is there a UK to US translator available, it took me some time to know what a bonnet and a boot were when I worked at a MG/Jaguar dealer in the late 70's First time today I heard a "fitter" is a mechanic.

Sorry to hear about your dog Bob we were regular visitors to Pride with our old boy Leroy. Wonderful team of vets and we were under the care of the lovely Caroline. You can’t get better care.

Can’t help with the oil never had to top up but I sympathise dealing with the Stoneacre service team my first service was a farce. Even though it was booked in advance they couldn’t find the oil filter.

i put 5-30 ecoboost labeled oil in mine it really doesn't matter what you put in as long as it meats the ford "rating" which alot of oils do.
Actually the 5W-30 oil you should be using on your 5.0 is the lower viscosity one that meets WSS-M2C913D. Otherwise you can use oil that meets WSS-M2C945A (5W-20). Engine oil that meets WSS-M2C946A (for ecoboost) is slightly higher viscosity.

i prefer 30 over 20 always have because i beat on the engines a bit more that little extra works better when beating it at higher temps

Just lost my little Bertie, died in my arms from heart failure, only 7 years old and as fit as a fiddle...
