    Great responses from the guys on here.

    Its been mentioned in previous posts, but be aware the oil you are recommended to use is the one Red leader put the photo up of.

    It is filtered to a higher specification for the RS and most importantly has fluorescent indicator in it. The watch out is if you do not use this oil and you have a engine warrenty claim, ford may reject your claim. All they do to check is shine a black light in to look for the indicator.


    May the Ford be with you

    Spot on Yorkirs. ?I know on someone who had a warranty claim rejected due to the wrong oil being used. Cost him a large bag of cash for an engine rebuild.

    Hi all, had my 2016 RS now for 3 months and love it but I do like to have some engine oil handy in the car so 4ltr is too big and don’t need the professional with the indicator as it’s obviously out of warranty plus they seem to be £85 for 1 ltr! 😳

    Price here seems ok but does anyone know any bette deals, plus just triple checking this is the right one! CheeRS, Al
