That is Semi Synthetic oil by Ford. Go to Walmart and you can buy Castrol Full Syn oil in a 5qt can and it's only around $26.00, which is about $5.25 per qt.

That's the oil my Ford dealer used in my 06' crew cab Lariat every time they changed the oil. I got the maintenance package when I bought the truck as a "gift" from the dealer. It seems like pretty good oil. No issues I know of. It was a different weight though, 5W20 is what they used.

You might be able to get an analysis of the oil from "Bob is the oil guy" web site. I noticed they teamed up with a lab to test oil composition against manufacturers claims.

i dont understand my ls oil capacity is 6 quarts?

 

[djknowledge]

yea but when u use the dipstick...it comes up a quart less...i had to pit a tad bit over 7 just to make it to the line...and no leaks by the way....

 

[gcwimmer]

My 04 takes 7 qts with filter and registers ever so slightly above the full mark. You may not have the oil cooler but I bet it will still be short at 6qts.

 

[Lincoln Jealous]

looks right at the line, im going to add 1 more to be in the middle 7 will do it, and fyi its the 5/8 wrench for the oil plug nut

[lseguy]

as long as the oil meets Fords requirements? ANY oil will work.

I use Amsoil XL full synth. Its a little pricey but compared to other synth's this lasts the longest. And yes you do need 7 qts. I usually put the full 6 in then a couple splashes of the 7th. Add as needed.
