The Ford Flex uses different types of oil depending on the engine it has. Here are the details:
The Ford Flex has an oil capacity of six quarts, regardless of the engine version. The type of oil you’ll need for an oil change will depend on which engine your Flex has.
According to the Flex Manual, the recommended oil for the regular 3.5-liter V6 engine is Motorcraft SAE 5W-20 or an equivalent SAE 5W-20 oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C930-A. This oil provides optimum fuel economy and durability performance for your vehicle’s engine.
For the 2019 Ford Flex with a 3.5 L V6 engine, the recommended oil type is 5W-20 synthetic blend.
It’s important to note that synthetic oil is recommended by some owners and dealerships for better engine performance and protection. However, it’s always best to consult your vehicle’s manual or contact a Ford dealership for the most accurate and up-to-date information on the recommended oil for your specific Ford Flex model and engine.
