Maintenance
Engine oil
The oil consumption of your engine
is influenced by many factors. New
engines reach the normal value only after
approximately 10,000 km.
High performance engines consume
slightly more. Under high loads, your
engine will also consume more oil.
Check the engine oil periodically, e.g.
when refuelling or prior to long journeys.
Check the engine oil level with the
engine at operating temperature and
make sure the vehicle is standing on
level ground.
Switch the ignition off and wait a few
minutes for the engine oil to flow back to
the sump.
Pull the dipstick out, wipe it with a clean,
lint-free cloth, re-insert it completely and
pull it out once more.
I6 engine oil dipstick
The oil level is shown by the oil film
adhering to the dipstick. If the level
lies between the ’ADD’ and ’FULL’
marks there is no need to refill. Hot oil
may exceed the FULL mark for some
millimetres due to thermal expansion.
If the oil lies in the ADD region refill
using only engine oil meeting the Ford
specification.
Refer to the Fluid Specification section in
the Customer Assistance, Warranty and
Service Guide.
Never top up above the MAX mark.
Engine oil filler cap
To open, unscrew in an anti-clockwise
direction. Do not open the cap while the
engine is running. Oil additives are neither
necessary nor recommended and could,
under certain conditions, lead to engine
damage.
Note: Empty and used oil containers
must not be disposed of in household
waste. Use your local authorised waste
disposal facilities or recycling station.
