Hi everyone,
I was talking with my mother, and it turns out she bought a maintenance plan from the dealer for her 2012 MKX, but it only provides an oil change every 7,500 miles. I am considering doing my own OC at 3,000 or 3,500 or possibly sending a used oil sample to Blackstone to decide whether to continue running this oil for the specified interval. My paranoid thinking believes that the car companies want to extend OCI's in order to drum up business in the future. Since this car is under warranty, I plan on using Motorcraft oil and filters, but no I don't know what type of oil and filter this particular dealership used, hopefully Motorcraft.
