2015 Ford Escape 2.0 ecoboost Oil Change
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 май 2016
- How to change the oil on Escape with 2.0 ecoboost. Tools needed are t30 torx bit, 15mm ratchet, jack and jack stands (I perform on the ground with no jack), oil catch pan, and funnel. Oil capacity is 5.7 (fill to 5.5 and check from there). Oil filter Part number is FL-910s for Ford OEM, the only Fram I recommend is XG3614, K&N is HP-1002 or lesser quality is PS-1002, Wix is 51348 XP for good filter or 51348 for lesser Wix filter. Thanks for watching and please like for more videos.

Thanks Clayton. Tools needed in comments, walkthrough, details and opinions all helpful.
I really appreciate you posting this. I have a new to me 2015 2.0L escape Platinum. The oil change took me 20 min (mostly due to draining the oil). Followed step by step! Thank you!
I plan on using your tips this upcoming weekend after we get our windshield replaced (finally), also a 2015. Ty for the tips and video here. Huge help for sure. I have a slight lift ramp for both front wheels so I can easy access the rest. But definitely doing that, and going with the K&N you recommended also. (Have done wix successfully in the past for a chevy cruze 2012), but now on a family base. Ty for the support video. Still helping owners. :D
Thanks to you I’ve just changed my Ford Escape oil. Thank you so much.
Excellent. Thanks for making this vid. Very helpful. Doing mine tomorrow.
my 2015 escape 1.6liter engine (5W20 - 4.3 qts) used a T40 star tool and 13mm socket. you are exactly correct, take off the shield in the back 1st. cheers
Man, I’m glad you posted this.....wife let car go 1000 miles over and I GOTTA change the oil(4:00 pm Saturday) i looked at the bottom of her car and about panicked, a little more to that car than my f-250!.. but once again, I appreciate that yiu made this vid
Thank you for taking the time to share this with everyone
Perfect video. Exactly what I was looking for to help me. Thanks.
Thanks for the vid. Excited to get my hands dirty with my Ford Escape for my next oil change.
This actually helped a shit ton. THANK YOU
Great video. Looked under the hood and at the under carriage and got the idea ford said "here's what we want and here's how much space you have, now play Tetris"... apparently it's not as bad as I was expecting (my 06 Tacoma has lots more space). Thanks for tips
Nice video thank you hate those scratch sounds the videos got but exactly what I was looking for
The video i watched is titled: The worst oil filter EVER! , that shud bring u to it the guy tears a bunch of dif brands down and shows the insides. Helped me alot man.
Nice job on the video... thank you. To the comments about 3800 miles being overkill .... I tend to agree with YOU. NOT overkill ... this is a turbocharged engine ... full synthetic oil & high quality filters are a must. No way I'd let my turbocharged vehicle car go over 5,000 miles. Oil is cheap ... engines are not ... I don't care what the oil life monitor says. Thanks again.
Air dam is what was getting me, thanks.
Ford and Lincoln best in business! 🇺🇸
Thanks for this very good video Clayton. We just purchased a 2017 Edge with a little less than 15,000 miles on it. I will be changing the oil on it soon even though it looks very clean but like you I only use Mobil 1 and Motorcraft filters. I have not looked underneath yet but assume I have a lower splash shield cover as well. I might leave that thing off. Also I'll convert to a Fumoto valve and without the splash shield I don't need any tools to do the changes. Thanks again.
This man speaks a lot
Thanks, good demo and tips 👍
Thanks
Thanks for posting!
Thanks for the detailed video! BTW, 3800 miles between changes is overkill. The manual says 7500 with normal use and 5000 with heavy use.
it's one of those things, I know it's over kill but like the piece of mind. thanks for the comment
People here are telling you that 3800 miles for an oil change is overkill have not been paying attention to the Ecoboost engines' issues with crankcase deposits building up in the back side of intake valves. Frequent oil changes with good oil will help mitigate that deposit issue. @@ClaytonYatescarenthusiast
Thank you. Just did mine based on this and not the others.
Pulled 7Qt out and it's 5.7q in...a bit worried about what Ford did. The drain plug even had 125inch lbs to break loose.
You need a 7mm or 9/32 for two of those screw bolts on the sides.
Don't use Fram if you care one bit about your vehicle. Go Wix either way. XP for the Mobile, non-XP for Castrol Magnatec. It's a turbo so please go full syn (Magnatec is a blend in this weight).
Flushing with 1/2 a quart is just a waste. You're not flushing anything. There's still old oil in the turbo feed lines....it's useless and a waste. The filter will work that out. Wix 51348 XP is what you should use and only fully synthentic. Castrol Edge or Mobile 1; your pick.
Screw the manual. It's a good engine and it will go 10K. This isn't a 1966 mustang with loose bearing clearances. Go 5K at least and test your oil.
the top of the line fram is better than any filter on the market and there are several test that prove that. The base fram on the other hand has cardboard and a non silicone drain back seal, won't recommend that filter. I've always ran half a quart through on all my cars and always will. if it's a waste it's my money so shouldn't bother anybody. this is the first oil change so 3800 is about right.
J.C. Agree it makes no difference to pour a 1/2 quart through. I haven't heard a lot of good things about Fram. In my opinion, Amsoil oil and filters would be the top choice. I've been searching around for a while and it's what I plan to use for our Ford's next change.

You can also get an aftermarket belly pan w/oil filter an drain access port so you won't have to remove it every time... Amazon $66
Up omn the upper part of the firewall are two vent looking covers with what appears to look like vents on the side anyone know what these are a possible outside vent for the ventilation on the inside of the cabin?
Great video. Your audio needs some help though. I could barely hear you. Thank you.
Thanks for the detailed video. Interesting info you shared about the Fram filters. Where did you get the info on the materials used in their construction? I'd like to read up on it.
there is a great read on one of the camaro forums. I searched best oil filter on Google and found about 3 good RUclips videos and 2 or 3 written articles. the forum article comes up one the first page. sorry can't link it on my phone.
Or you can take it to the dealer or a dealer owned quick lane and get "the works" for $50 witch is an oil change, tire rotation and fluid top off
Hey bro my escape its trowing oil by the blu thing
Changed oil on a 2018 1.5 L Turbo today. The carbon fiber is a little bit of a pain. The oil plugs aren’t magnetized. Holds 4.3 quarts. The oil filter is really hard to get to. Noticed there is no trans dipstick or fill up top. Not a fan of that. Nice car overall.
Make sure you change your transmission oil at 30,000. You will be surprised at how quickly it gets dirty.
The transmission oil drain and refill is priceless advice. It is SUPER easy to do and the benefits are so many. Expect to get 4 quarts of the 11 swapped out at each refill. I just did ours 3 times in 3 weeks and am gauging we have just over 80% fresh fluid in the tranny now. It is money, preventative maintenenance money, well spent.
Nice informative video. But do your engine a Huge favor & NEVER use another Fram oil filter. If you do some research you'll find they are 1 of the Worst option's. I won't even dyno a car until they are swapped anymore
TheDynotuner shows how much you actually know about fram filters, no offense but there is so much more to it than that. yes the orange fram filters are horrible. They have rubber instead of silicon anti drain back valves, the pleating of the media is bad and weak, and they even have card board backing. never use an orange fram. this filter on the other hand has shown better filtration and performance in several independent studies. metal back, full man made pleating that filters better than any other filter with more surface area, the anti drain back valve is silicone. best filter out there. thanks
Nooo! Not fram!! Watch the oil filter vids man those filters are bad. Jus lookin out.
I was hoping this was the 2014 Escape. The oil filter location was designed by a total idiot! This one looks like it's easier to get to. As far as why I change my own oil. . $24 for a top quality filter and full synth oil as opposed to over $50 by some high school gear head at a oil change shop who never heard of a torque wrench.
Why even bother doing your own oil change when Ford offers the "The Works" for $39.95 it includes: oil & filter change-synthetic, tire rotation, brake inspection, multi point inspection, fluid top off, battery test, filter check, and belt hose check, also free coffee & bagel while you wait.
Jogo g why watch a video on how to change oil when you could be watching Netflix in your mom's basement while eating whatever you eat?
That "works" special is now $59 and has always been a synthetic blend, not full synthetic. Cheaper to do it yourself.
You've obviously never had them strip your drain plug, leave oil dripping from your car, or not reattach the skid plate fully and find it flopping around... 🤦🏻♀️
idk what you're doing with your camera or what camera you're using but holy crap I can't even hear a thing you said with all that plastic scraping noise
grey matter well it the GoPro case and was super annoying, one of my first videos. Live and learned
Clayton Yates don't get me wrong it was very informative :) thank you!!
I do the same # oil is cheap engines are expen$ive .
That car has Sync 3 so it's a 2016, not 15...
Correct, I had a focus ST that I would confuse years with.
I cringed so hard when I seen that crappy fram oil filter.
Firebird 87622 fram filters in general suck, this one does not
ford 2014, not 2015.
basilio100 actually want to hear something funny? it's a 16. I corrected it wrong. they are the same except sync 3 system and minor changes like different rear shocks. but pretty much the same thing
Clayton Yates agree. -)
Dude it's a 13mm not a 15mm 🤦♂️
Dude different year🤦
Lots of noise.
Intro far too long. Skipped aspects of the work to be performed. Wobbly video. Low audio quality.
Cool take a hike
Fram is the worst filter you can use. Stick with motorcraft.
Sound was terrible , could hardly hear you talking.
Thank so much I'll go back and fix this several year old video cause your ears are bothered
Turn music off while speaking, very annoying!
Sorry the free how to video I made in tiny garage on my back didn't help you enough.
Brutal noise when moving camera around. To Irritating to bother watching video!!!
Tom Bellwood yeah here is some life changing advise, don't watch then.
Clayton Yates .. yeah no worries there!!!
Clayton Yates Don't post if you can't handle criticism....
Tom Bellwood you're the one with the issue, I'm fine. Thanks for helping the video rating by commenting repeatedly on a video you can't even watch. any more nonsense to discuss?
Clayton Yates 👍
