Hi rta1027 On our vehicle we were recommended 5w/30 fully synthetic but best to just give your registration to your motor parts supplier and go by their recommendation. Thanks for watching
а сколько остается отработанного масла в поддоне картера при такой замене ,через нижнюю пробку ,не лучше менять масло через щуп проверки уровня ,в поддоне картера очень большое углубление в месте пробки слива масла
Hi Richard Thanks very much for watching the video. Yes, there will be a small amount of old oil left after draining, not only in the bottom of the sump but in other inaccessible recesses in the engine as well. However, the fact that the car manufacturer has designed the oil to be changed via the sump plug indicates to me that they are happy enough with this method. By the time the new oil goes in and mixes with the old it will be good enough for what the engine requires. It’s more important to make sure you change the oil at the recommended frequency and make use of the dipstick to ensure the correct level.
Hi @emvlogzz5307 Thanks very much for watching. This is common with diesel engines. When performing an oil change not all the old oil is drained - a small amount of residual oil is left in the nooks and crannies of the engine galleries, which then mixes with the new oil and turns it black. No neeed to worry though - the ratio of new oil to old will be very high, so it will perform just fine.
wow, I have the same car. I would like to know the size of the oil drain nut. This is Length [mm]:17 Key opening:21 Bolt Head / Nut Profile: Protruding hexagon External thread size: M10 x 1.25 Underhead screw length [mm]: 13. Correct? Tanks 😊
Hi @antoninoiz0run681 I do not recall the size of the sump plug from when I made the video and unfortunately did not mention the size during recording, which I usually do. To get the correct size, I'd recommend: - checking your vehicle's manual, which should list the correct sump plug size - contacting a Ford dealership or authorized service center with your vehicle's exact model, engine, and year. They can provide the precise specifications - using an online parts catalog that allows you to input your specific vehicle details to find the correct part Thanks for watching
Hi Peter Thanks very much for watching our video. With reference to your question, if you mean how to reset the service message 'oil change required' then please look at one of our other videos detailed below.

Hi tims2676 Thanks for watching the video. The oil will certainly drain out faster if it is hot. It will also drain if warm or cold, but will just take a little longer.
*Warning* DO NOT put the filter insert into the cap then screw the cap in to the housing. You my be lucky and it finds the locator hole, but you likely will NOT be lucky. The filter must go into the housing in the right place and THEN the cap is screwed in. I know of one person who did it your way and ended up next oil change with a mangled filter as it hadn't found the locator hole. Other vids show the correct way. Haynes Manuals are not wrong.
Hi @HappyBagger Yep, we changed the way we do this in our videos a while back, as an example see the video for [Citroen C3 1.4 Diesel (2009) - Oil and Oil Filter Change] from May 2023. However, we did not realise we had an older video still showing our older way of doing this so thanks for pointing it out. We have updated the video description of this video to provide the viewer with information on the best practice way and changed the thumbnail to alert them to the fact. Thanks for watching.
Hi Richard Thanks for watching 3.9 litres might be the recommended quantity of oil but I wouldn't put in the whole amount in one go just in case you accidentally overfill. You can always top up in small incremental amounts to hit the maximum line.

Great and helpful video. Got a number of filters changed using your videos allowing me to service my car myself 👍
That’s great Adam. This is exactly why we post these videos

Hi Nigel
Glad the video helped you out - thanks for watching
Watching this makes me appreciate how easy my e39 530i was to work on. Ford doesn’t make it easy for a technician do they!
If you don’t like Fords then you really won’t like Citroens / Peugots / Renaults 😄
What size socket did you use for removing and tightening the drain plug?
Hi JamOwnzU
Thanks for watching the video. It's a 21mm socket you will need.
@@carjunkieschannel Thank you for replying and making the video!
Hallo, oil motor 0w30 or 5w30???

How come the oil was still black after you had changed it?

Ciao meso olio 0w30 o 5w30? Grazie
Hi Zeljko - 5W30 fully synthetic would be the best oil to use
In the newer 1.5 TDCI (2015-), Ford recommends 0W30 fully synthetic C2 oil
where is the action when the kilometre counter is restarted?

It takes 3.9 litre of oil.
