Don’t forget your Ford Everest oil change

Car dashboard

The Ford Everest is big, bold and ready for anything. It’s an SUV with 5-7 seats to fit your whole family — whether it’s a daily commute or a weekend off road adventure.

As a vehicle named after the mountain with the highest peak in the world, you’re right to expect big things from this beast. But, even though your Everest is built tough, you still need to maintain it.

It’s important to change your engine oil regularly to keep your SUV on the road. Low or dirty oil can lead to performance issues and may even cause the engine to overheat. If the Ford Everest oil change warning light is on or your car is running rough, call your local mycar to book a service.

There are benefits when you change oil in a Ford Everest

At mycar, we offer a range of service options for your Ford Everest. No matter which package you choose, you’ll get fresh, premium engine oil and a new high-quality oil filter.

How customers feel about our Car Servicing

When to get an oil change on your Ford Everest

Ford recommends changing the motor oil every 7,000 to 15,000 kms. Newer models come with an Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor which will flag when it’s time for an oil change, making it even easier to keep on top of it.

While an oil change at your 6-12 month service is usually enough for your Everest, there are several warning signs to look out for. If you notice any of the following, book your car in for a check:

  • The oil looks dark or grimy
  • Your car has an unusual smell
  • There’s dark exhaust smoke coming from the exhaust pipe
  • The engine is making rattling sounds
  • The engine oil warning light is on

Remember, oil is essential for your Ford Everest’s performance, so don’t ignore the signs.

When should I change the oil in my Ford Everest?

The Ford Everest change oil schedule usually ties in with your regular services, needing a change between 7,000 and 15,000 kms.

The way you drive your car and its age can impact how often you need to change the oil. For example, older Ford Everests often need more frequent engine oil changes. Things like towing heavy loads or doing lots of driving can also make a difference, so make sure to keep an eye out for symptoms of needing an oil change, like dirty oil, unusual smells, or smoke from the exhaust.

What kind of oil does a Ford Everest take?

The right oil will depend on the year and transmission type of your Ford Everest, but, you’ll need to use high-quality, synthetic engine oil.

You’ll also need to use an oil that’s the right viscosity, as this has an effect on how the engine oil will flow through your vehicle, with higher viscosity oils being thicker.

You can check the owner’s manual to find your Ford Everest’s recommended viscosity rating, and of course, your mycar technician will only use the best match for the Everest.
