      I just picked up a 2018 one with 22k miles on it went from a 2011 ss to this thing and we'll I wouldn't look back but for the burnouts. Other then that it keeps up with the other camaro ss around here actually would have pulled on one with more room on the road.

    Should be noted that the motorcraft FL-400S filter is being used allowing it to be filled to 6qts. The regular filter FL-910S has a capacity to fill the engine up to 5.7qts. Don’t get them mixed up and drown your engine.

    Great video, thanks! Definitely make sure you fill the oil filter with new oil before installing. It's most important for the safety of your engine.

    I used 5w30 and I eptied mine yesterday and did full oil change. I stopped it up by a quart aprox 1 month ago to be safe as I could.get the tools to change oil. Ot wasnt sludge so was alright. Anyway I eptied it yesterday and ran half a liter through to refrain and flush system and all together aprox 5.5l came out. I then proceeded to pour in the recommended amount 5.3l and run idle for 30s and checked oil 5 mins later and was between the correct amount. I will add this was measured on an even surface. I then installed my torque mount and new pads so 3 hours later and drove home... I remeassured again on a slightly un even side to side surface that being the camber of the road and the oil was way high this time... like half an inch above the top dot. At this point I didnt have access to axle stands and a jack so just had to leave it till I have access but now I'm worried. I drive about 50miles a day. And cant get a ramp till nexr week. My oil pressure gauge is completely fine and barely touches 4bar oil pressure when warmed at 70c+ and at full throttle.theough a few gears. So I assume it is alright?

    Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is the best oil for the money. Been putting it in my ST for two years now. There’s a great comparison video on RUclips.

    The next time you do an oil change, fill the oil filter with oil before fitting. The reason behind this is on start up there will be a delay for the oil reaches any part of the engine, because the oil filter has to fill up first.

    • @MichaelJohnson-uo3ef
      @MichaelJohnson-uo3ef 2 года назад +2

      No you dont want to do this because youre adding unfiltered oil as "primer" when the pump actually pulls oil during cranking so when the engine fires off the pump has primed clean filtered oil.

    Don't use Motul it has bad heat resistance you're going to need to keep close track of your oil level and end up using more oil over a 7,500 mile OCI. You can find a lot of good alternatives.

    Which is more fun to drive/easier to mod, a Focus ST or a 370z?

    • @mazdaspeedg2380
      @mazdaspeedg2380 4 года назад +2

      Jt Fox I would say the st would be faster when modded but because it’s turbocharged more things can fail I love the 350/370’s because they are rwd not fwd so you can go sideways also coupes are always more fun to drive even if it’s slow

    Can anyone answer what would make this brand the “highest grade” vs another brand’s top performance oil? I’m just curious what makes this oil so different since he doesn’t go into much detail.

    • @bones0184
      @bones0184 4 года назад +3

      Not sure what makes it the best he could be getting that stuff for free so he’s probably just pushing their product , but royal purple is my go to and filling the the filter before putting the new one on is a good move , always check spark plug gap even if it comes pre gapped.

      @@hirayaman246 Damn, you Euro folks get all the options. All we got here in the states was the hatchback until 2015 when they started adding a few trims, the ST2 and ST3 packages. There aren't even any factory performance upgrades you can get unless you go through Ford Performance, which is still a separate deal after buying the car, and it only adds 90 torque, no hp. But definitely agree, I got mine used with a cobb exhaust, it pulls so quick, sounds fantastic, corners like it's on rails, I love it

    Guys, don't buy into all the hype and marketing. Just change your oil every 5,000 miles (or sooner if you wish) and use an off-the-shelf oil that is API-certified and the correct weight for your engine. I've been running Super Tech full synthetic and an OEM Motorcraft filter for years and have gotten over 300,000 trouble-free miles on my Ford Focus and Explorer. The last Blackstone oil report on my 4.6L Explorer was "flawless" (their words, not mine). The key is to do those oil changes regularly, especially on these turbocharged motors. Don't buy into all the hype and marketing from these "performance" oils.
