How many liters of engine oil are needed for an Edge oil change?
2 Answers
The amount of engine oil required for an Edge oil change varies depending on the engine. The 2.0T engine requires 5.5 liters of oil, while the 2.7T engine requires 6.5 liters. When adding oil, it is essential to ensure the oil level is between the min and max marks on the dipstick. This vehicle is equipped with two engines: a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged engine. The Edge is a mid-size SUV from Ford, featuring a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The vehicle's dimensions are 4878 mm in length, 1925 mm in width, and 1770 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850 mm.
I've been driving the Edge for three years and always supervise the oil changes myself. This car takes about 5.3 to 5.7 liters of oil, depending on how thoroughly the old oil is drained. Last time at the repair shop, the mechanic drained the old oil for half an hour and added 5.5 liters to reach the midpoint on the dipstick. The new and old models are different, so it's best to check the detailed data in the last chapter of the owner's manual. Nowadays, if you're using full synthetic oil, the 4S shop often recommends buying a 6-liter pack directly, but you'll usually end up with half a bottle left. Don't throw away the leftover; keep it in the trunk as a backup—it can be handy if you find the oil level low during a long trip. Remember to have the mechanic warm up the engine for ten minutes after the change and check the oil level again for accuracy.
