How to Change Engine Oil 2017 Ford Explorer/Things You Need To Know

[@w.p.958]

Love the focus on safety first - chocks are a lifesaver, and explaining how to jack and support with jack stands. Absolutely agree - NEVER TRUST A JACK! My dad pounded that into my head on the farm.

Thank you for putting oil in the filter. I thought I was the only one lol. I have always did this and wondered if anyone else did. Great video 😊

[@lisarohlf1573]

Thank you for this!!! First timer trying my own change!

[@davidacosta6510]

I’m gonna do mine tomorrow bro, thanks for that explanation.

[@rogerjrusa]

If you’ve changed oil 1,000 times, watch this anyway. The Explorer does have a few little secrets and they’re revealed here. Good work, man.

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

Thanks for the video man!

[@FREDSTATE]

Great video thanks! What size motor is that? Reason I ask is I have the 2.3 4cyl and I wanted to know if the oil filter and drain plug are in the same place as your video. Thanks!

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

It's a 3.5L

[@Beyourselfmybaby]

[@RawFitChris]

Nice job and a great demo! Definitely subbed.

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

Thank you!

[@DannyFetter-ge2jg]

Make sure you check your vehicle manual and oil cap. This video says to use 5w20 oil, my vehicle recommends 5w30. Not sure how much that matters but I have always heard it isn’t good to change mid vehicle life

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

You have a Point there. The difference is weight. Some people prefer to use 5w-20 in winter month and 5w-30 in summer months. Depending on your location. Thanks

[@Alex090beast]

Thank you🙏🏽

[@19Dennis53]

Nice video! Thanks!

[@PaulMcLove]

Super 👍😉😀

[@Akiriwayo]

My manual asks for a 5w30 not 5w20.

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

My oil cap say 5w-20. Either way you can't go wrong. I mainly use 5w-30 especially in the summer months. Some owners perfer to use 5w-20 depending on where you live in the winter months. Thanks

[@habib.ghalamkarian]

If your milage is over 40k use 5w40 especially in warm States or summer time.

[@32srt32]

what about the change oil code on the dash?

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

@32srt32 Thete is a video on that also on my Channel. Thanks

[@Vesper778]

Perk of me being small guy was I change this and my dad’s Tiguan without even lifting the car up as I can slide right under haha

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

That is great🙂

[@ThatGUYILL]

I was gonna say the same thing lol

[@luismoto6502]

How many quarters of oil i need for 2017 Ford Explorer thanks

[@michaelbieber3994]

The 3.5 V6 takes 6 quarts of 5W-20.

[@EmilGhiurau]

Synthetic blend or full synthetic? V6 Explorer sport 2017

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

I used Synthetic Blend. And change the oil every4000 -5000 miles. If you use Full Synthetic which is fine. You can go a couple thousand miles more.

[@EmilGhiurau]

@@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892 thanks. Also my Explorer Sport oil cap says 5w30 Do you say 5w20 is better?

[@dairleautoclassicrestorati6892]

@@EmilGhiurau I always believe in using what the cap calls for. But I will say this. If the cap calls for 5w-30. That is important especially in the Summer months. In the Winter months you can drop down to 5w-20. Again that is only in the Winter months.
