When to Change 2013 Ford Edge Engine Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Ford Edge’s oil changed? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Ford recommends having your 2013 Ford Edge’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Edge in the above table. Outside of Ford-recommended oil change intervals, your Edge may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Ford if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Ford Edge. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
