Very good information for people. We service a fleet of Transit T350. They all have the 3.5 turbo. Some are now nearing 300,000 miles. Ford oil filter and a good full synthetic oil, every 3,000 miles. All of fluids every 50,000. Other then spark plugs and coils. The engine have been bullet proof. We do see EVAP systems, purge valve issues along with rear brake slider sticking the calipers.

I am an old retired master mechanic that owns a 2014 F-150 with Eco Boost. I change oil and Wix filter every 5000 miles. When I bought the truck it came with "free (ha) service. every 10,000 miles, I told the dealer no thanks and do them myself. I put it up on my lift and check everything and so far no major problems. I have seen trucks that go 15,000 miles between oil changes and they are in for repairs a lot. Every oil service I clean the THREE intake sensors and I also drilled the intercooler. My routine maint.

That is where economy is maximized. My 2018 F-150 has gotten 27 MPG on the highway, granted by setting cruise control at the speed limit for the 70 miles . In the same situation, a 5.0 wouldn't get that good of mileage.

Great informational video- correct it is imperative to change the oil and filter every 5-6K with only full synthetic. My 2012 F-150 ECO now has 253K and aside from a current MAF issue (needs to be properly spray cleaned) the truck runs great. Another tip my mechanic advised especially on the older 1st generation ECOs is when operating for extended trips is to allow the engine to idle 2-3 minutes allowing the fluids to circulate through the turbos before turning off. Anything to extend the life of the ECO is important. Don't forget the transmission flush which along with the radiator which I do at the dealer at least every 40K after I hit 100K. Small price of preventive maintenance to possibly avoiding large repair bills if you plan to drive over well over 100K.

Having had diesels in the past, if driving on the highway, especially towing hills, I'd let the truck run until exhaust temps lowered to 300 degrees, so says the pyrometer. Of course their is no pyrometer on these F150's (of which mine is a 3.5 as well, and running fine at 130k+ miles) and although I don't tow, if I've run it a little harder than normal, I'll wait 30 seconds before shutting down. I am one of the one's that drives for fuel mileage, so every now and again, have to remember to allow the turbo's to incorporate some power...but I don't often, as I want to remain above 18 mpg around town if at all possible, which it can do if I drive it sensibly. I just bought a case of Motorcraft semi-synthetic (as per the manual states for oil changes) but I do change right at 5,000 miles or prior to. I'll switch over to Penzoil Platinum full synthetic once my Motorcraft is gone.

Great video explaining the fact that these engines need to have regularly scheduled oil changes. Just like the Triton 5.4l change the oil ever 3000 to 3500 miles with synthetic oil and the engines are dependable. Another great point is the fuel economy. Bottom line if you need a vehicle like a full size pickup you really can't expect to get the same mileage as per say a Toyota corolla. It's common sense.
@paulwolf84442 жыл бұрын
It really doesn't matter that much in terms of synthetic v conventional. Synthetic just has different flow characteristics. Oil never stops being oil. You don't change oil, You are draining unburned gasoline. The sooner the better. Either oil gets just as contaminated that's the bad part. With synthetic you have some overall better long term wear.

It doesn’t help that the manufacturers have stretched the recommended maintenance intervals in the name of selling “lower cost of maintenance” to the buyer. Case in point...Nearly every automaker that uses the ZF 8HP transmission says it’s “fill for life” while ZF explicitly recommends changing the fluid at 8yr/100000km.

In the last 100 years or so, what car/engine hasn't begun to fail without proper maintenance? Sloppy maintenance (especially of the engine) is like giving bad luck a disproportionate chance to wreck things while giving the owner absolutely nothing to gain from not servicing the vehicle properly. Some engine type with certain usage patterns might last for some time despite lax maintenance but I don't even see the point of comparing the durability of different engines without the assumption that all engines are first and foremost properly maintained.

@@nzmarco trans fluid, the 6F35 likes clean transmission oil. Should be done at 50k (km). Injector/carbon flush at 50k as well, if you have AWD get both diffs done too. Check online for service intervals, that may give a better idea. Direct injection has its own caveats, so the more you understand how DI works the easier it'll be to determine what type of service you need. I use strictly 91 octane, but 87 is fine as well.

Very well spoken and easy to listen to. Everything you say makes sense. I particularly agree with the synthetic oil especially in a highly strung engine. Nothing wrong with changing it before the recommended intervals either. I personally would not have one as they are a lot of tech for a relatively minor gain. The big old low stressed engines will tolerate lax oil changes and non optimals more than one of these and a lot cheaper to fix IMHO. Also less prone to throwing a fault code because a spark plug is not within spec. Having said that, I run a CRDI turbo diesel engine in our Sportage. 115k and no problems yet. Always get it serviced on time or a bit before.

Great video! I have an F150 3.5 EB built Jan. 21, 2011. 154,000 miles. I replaced my timing chain at 121,000 miles, and added a pneumatic pre-oiler with 1.5QT extra capacity. No pistons or other moving parts beyond an electric check valve to scrap metal shavings into my oil galley.. anyway also always synthetic oil and WIX or NAPA GOLD filters with good check valves. Now when I start up after sitting or cold, I KNOW I have full oil pressure with phasers at full PSI. Same setup that Jay Leno uses. My Ford dealership reviewed the entire install and said they would like to see me at 300,000 miles to see how I did. I do get into the turbos hard on occasion and have zero issues.

@Michael A-1 I have a 2013 Explorer Sport with the 3.5 ecoboost. Last Fall we started having issues with what Ford though was the cam phaser. I looked it up and found the timing chain stretch issue. Ford had the vehicle in 3 different times before they replaced the chain. 6 months later, the water pump went out and we caught it in time, but they repaired that also. We've had the electrical power steering go out in the cold as well, but that's just a random thing. Overall, like the engine, but transverse mounted in the explorer makes the chain/water pump more difficult to change out.
