Protecting your investment
Maintenance is an investment that will pay dividends in the form of
improved reliability, durability and resale value. To ensure the proper
performance of your vehicle and its emission control systems, it is
imperative that scheduled maintenance be completed at the designated
intervals.
For your convenience, your vehicle is equipped with a message center
which determines the proper oil change service interval. You should
perform the engine oil change as indicated by the message center. The
message center will display ENGINE OIL CHANGE SOON or OIL
CHANGE REQUIRED to indicate when an oil change is needed. The
engine oil change service needs to be completed within two weeks or
500 miles (800 km) after the OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message is
displayed. Your oil change service interval can be up to one year or
10,000 miles (16,000 km). Reset your Intelligent Oil Life Monitor™ after
each engine oil and filter change; refer to the Instrument Cluster
chapter.
From the Boss supplement 2nd printing:
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION
Use Motorcraft SAE 5W-50 full synthetic or an equivalent SAE 5W-50
full synthetic oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C931-B.
Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine
treatments. They are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that
is not covered by Ford warranty.
Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriateschedule
listed in the scheduled maintenance information.
But there is this blurb for you racers:
• Ford recommends you change your oil and filter after your
vehicle is subjected to track and/or competition conditions.
Just before it though it has this :
Ford recommends that you change your axle lubricant and
friction modifier after the initial (first) hour of high-speed
operation or if the vehicle is subjected to track or competition
conditions; thereafter changing the axle lubricant and friction
modifier every 12 hours (under these conditions).
There is no additive on carbon fiber clutches. LOL
As you can see theres no mention of "huury up and get that new oil out"...........no every 3000 miles.........These people have to stand behind a warranty and you have in print what to do........the monitor takes in account how hard the engine is run by keeping track of engines speed, RPM, .........when my car says change the oil.......thats when Ill do it.....if your worried about break in metals ..dont.....thats what the filter is for...........its 2012...not 1912. trust the technology.
