Why Ford Maverick Ecoboost Owners NEED to Change Oil More Frequently!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Christian explains why changing the oil sooner than Ford's recommended 7,500-mile interval and using a high-quality, 100% synthetic oil is critical for the long-term life of the Maverick's 2.0-liter, turbocharged Ecoboost engine. He also demonstrates how to complete an oil change by walking you through the process on his 2022 Maverick FX4.

    Thanks for the video! Nice job! If I can add a suggestion. Remove the fill cap and dip stick first. Then when you pull the drain plug and filter, you will get a smoother and more complete drain.

    I work at a Ford engine plant, I work in the area where the oil filters are installed. We use an electric tool that tightens the oil filter to a preset spec. I’ve told our engineer countless times that the oil filter doesn’t need to be that tight but they don’t listen. Ford wants to insure that they are not the reason the oil filter leaks once the car leaves the factory.

    I picked up a 2022 XLT 4K, FX4, LUX with 12.6K a little under 2 months ago. According to the app, it had it's first oil change at 5.5K, another at around 11K and Carmax showed me records that they changed it right before I bought it at 12.6K. Knowing this, I still had it changed at 15K miles and just had it changed last weekend at 20K miles (I drive a ton for work and us it to pull our 21 foot camper). Also, off topic, I plan on doing a walnut blasting every 60K miles, along with changing out the spark plugs at 50K miles.

    Informative video. One point I'd like to make is if you're doing it yourself, ALWAYS run the engine to circulate the oil through the engine and filter AND ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS BEFORE INSTALLING SKID PLATES. (Note: No mention if there is a gasket or O-ring on the drain plug, and if there is a rubber or cork O-ring, then it should be replaced. Side note question: What make and size tires are on your truck and does it have a lift kit installed?

    Good video! My 23 hybrid XLT, should be here this week. Talk to my salesman today, he said the truck is in the Twin Cities now, I live about 145 miles away. On the first oil change, I may change it around 1,500 miles. In case of any metal clippings etc. Probably change oil around 4000 miles or so after that. When I bought my 1976 Mercury Cougar brand new, I always changed oil myself, every 3000 miles. I used Mobil 10-30 oil. I still have the car, 47 years later, and it still runs like new, 351 Windsor v8. 86,000 miles on the car now. Anyway changing oil on time or even before, will prolong the engine life. I use Napa or Wick oil filters when I can. Cheers!

    You said you had "a" set of wheel ramps that you were using to make removing the skid plate easier. I get that, it makes sense. My question is about draining the oil while the front end is higher than the rear. Wouldn't it be better to drain the oil when the vehicle was level and the front end "not" on the ramps? I don't know is why I'm asking. I hope you do get 10+ yrs out of this Maverick. I would buy one if they offered a small cab with a 6' bed option. The ability to put a camper shell on a 6' bed for camping is a must for me. Thanks for sharing and best of luck with your sweet looking Maverick.

    I think you should also disable the start stop feature on the engine. After hard driving turbos are hot and the engine will shut off when you stop. So no oil flow to bearings in turbo. Same is true on diesel engines dont turn them off right after hard driving. Example highway trip stopping for gas at an exit give the engine time to "cool" off before shutting it off.

    @@themaverickhntr Those "professional" oil change places mostly don't give a s**t. If you don't specify, you won't get synthetic; they will likely use the cheapest oil they have that matches the weight on the filler cap. They will also push the cheap Fram oil filters, which are about the same as NO filter. The oil filter bypass? That is in the filter for the circumstance of a PLUGGED filter, which you would get from NOT changing the oil. It has nothing to do with an empty filter. As a retired professional mechanic, I can tell you that pre-filling the filter with new oil is always a good idea. Since your engine has a vertical mount with the opening up, it will get oil into the engine sooner.

    @@Flockingtheherd Ford also leads the world in recalls. So, they don't always get it right. Here is a DIRECT QUOTE from the owner's manual of my 2022 Ford Maverick XLT Ecoboost: "Your vehicle operates on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. Some fuel stations, particularly those in high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating below 87. The use of these fuels could result in engine damage that will not be covered by the vehicle Warranty. For best overall vehicle and engine performance, premium fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The performance gained by using premium fuel is most noticeable in hot weather as well as other conditions, for example when towing a trailer. See Towing a Trailer (page 263)."

    You just log the work and save your receipts for the oil and filter. If you use the Ford Pass app, you can even take photos of the receipts and upload them to your vehicle's official service history. Bottom line, you are allowed by law to work on your own vehicle. Ford can't void your warranty as long as you can prove you performed routine maintenance at or before factory-recommended intervals.

    Yes, I thought of that after the fact. However, isn't there a "bypass" for oil supply to the engine too? In other words, not all the oil that lubricates the engine comes directly through the filter. It all circulates through the filter repeatedly, but there is still a way to ensure the engine gets the oil it needs. Perhaps someone with real mechanical knowledge of the 2.0EB can comment on this.

    You Maverick guys do know this engine has been used since 2015 in a wide range of vehicles. The fact it is in a “truck” makes no difference in how it should be treated. Yeah, 5k miles is good. Bearing failure in the turbo is rare. Frequent oil changes do nothing to reduce intake valve buildup. Need 2 catch cans. Is that really a skid plate? Looks like it would rip right out if you hat anything with it.

    This is why mfrs should NOT put turbos on consumer/appliance grade vehicles. Its A Turbo Engine!!!! You need to follow TURBO oil change intervals! That means Full Synthetic. That means 3k - 4k intervals (unless you have it analyzed to be sure the oil isn't coking up). AND does the engine run for an additional 30-60 seconds after you "turn it off" after you've ran it hard and immediately park it? If not, I'd ask about that. Turbos NEED turbo timers to keep the engine running (and the oil flowing) for a bit to cool down the turbo or you will cook the oil in the turbo. This was a HIGH failure issue back in the 80s when mfrs first tried using turbos on non-enthusiast cars.

    I never said Ford doesn't care about customers -- though if you are a Maverick customer it's certainly debatable. I said that Ford -- and ALL auto makers, for that matter -- don't much care about product failures outside the warranty period. If you don't think parts and service are the lifeblood of the auto industry and how the auto makers are able to sustain dealer networks then you don't understand the economics of the automobile industry. If they made vehicles that lasted forever they'd all be out of business.
