Can I use 5w30 instead of 5w20 in my Ford?
In 2011, Ford started recommending 5w30 for the turbocharged 3.5 Ecoboost engines, but they haven’t changed the recommendation for the non-turbo duratec. You can run both 5w20 or 5w30 safely on these engines (turbocharged and non-turbo). Both oils will work great.

Can you put 5w30 in a 5.4 Triton?
Yes you can use 5w30 in your 5.4. From my reading that I’ve done the larger sump in the 5.4 and using 5w20 gets the oil to mimic 5w30 properties since it does not get as hot.
