Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2003 Ford F-150? Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.
Ford recommends changing your 2003 F-150’s oil at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your F-150 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Ford if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Ford F-150. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
