Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this oil suitable for diesel engines?

This oil is primarily formulated for gasoline engines, particularly specific Ford models. Always check your vehicle's manual for diesel engine oil specifications; this specific product may not be suitable.

Can I use this oil if my Ford is older than 1998?

While it might be compatible, this oil is specifically designed for Ford vehicles from 1998 onwards. For older vehicles, it is essential to consult your owner's manual or a qualified mechanic to determine the appropriate oil specification.

What is the recommended oil change interval for this oil?

This oil is designed to support extended oil change intervals. However, the exact interval should always be determined by your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations, typically found in the owner's manual, considering your driving conditions.

How does 'low-friction' affect my car?

A low-friction formula reduces the internal resistance within the engine. This leads to less energy loss, potentially improving fuel efficiency and reducing engine wear over time.

What does 'high shear stability' mean?

High shear stability means the oil maintains its viscosity (thickness) and protective properties even when subjected to high mechanical stress, such as during rapid acceleration or high engine RPMs. This ensures consistent lubrication under demanding conditions.

Where can I find the oil specification for my car?

The recommended oil specification (viscosity grade, API service category, ACEA performance level) can be found in your vehicle's owner's manual. It is often also listed on a sticker under the hood.

Is this a full synthetic oil?

Yes, the Liqui Moly Special Tec F 5W-30 Engine Oil features an advanced synthetic formulation.

Troubleshooting

Engine oil light remains illuminated after starting.

Check the oil level immediately. If low, add the correct type and amount of oil. If the level is correct, the oil pressure sensor or pump may be malfunctioning; consult a mechanic.

Oil appears milky or foamy.

This can indicate coolant contamination. Check coolant levels and inspect for leaks. This situation requires immediate attention from a qualified mechanic.

Engine making unusual noises after oil change.

Verify the correct oil viscosity and specification were used. Ensure the oil filter was installed correctly and is not leaking. Check the oil level. If problems persist, consult a professional.

Oil consumption seems high.

Monitor the oil level regularly. High oil consumption can be due to engine wear, worn piston rings, or valve stem seals. Consult a mechanic to diagnose the cause.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This oil is specifically designed for Ford vehicles manufactured from 1998 onwards and engines requiring the ACEA A5/B5 or API SL specifications. Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual to confirm the correct oil specification before use. Using the wrong oil can lead to engine damage.

**Setup (Oil Change Process):

  1. Ensure the engine is warm but not hot.
  2. Safely lift and support the vehicle.
  3. Locate and remove the oil drain plug.
  4. Allow the old oil to drain completely.
  5. Replace the oil drain plug and tighten appropriately.
  6. Remove the old oil filter.
  7. Lubricate the rubber gasket on the new oil filter with fresh oil.
  8. Install the new oil filter hand-tight.
  9. Refill the engine with the correct amount of Liqui Moly Special Tec F 5W-30 oil.
  10. Run the engine for a few minutes and check for leaks.
  11. Turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, and check the oil level using the dipstick. Top up if necessary.

Care:

Store the oil container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is securely sealed after each use. Dispose of used oil responsibly according to local regulations.
