What type of engine oil does the Explorer use?
1 Answers
Explorer uses 5W30 fully synthetic engine oil, recommended to be replaced approximately every 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is referred to as the 'blood of the engine.' It serves multiple functions including lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing against leaks, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. The Explorer is a model under the Ford brand, positioned as a mid-to-large SUV with dimensions of 5064mm in length, 2005mm in width, and 1798mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2860mm. This vehicle is equipped with either a 2.3-liter turbocharged engine or a 3.5-liter turbocharged engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
