What can low oil do to my Ford Transit Connect engine?

Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, generate excess heat, and cause your Transit Connect’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

How hard is it to change Ford Transit Connect oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.

Why is my Ford exhaust smoke gray or blue?

Do I need to replace my Transit Connect’s oil filter when changing my oil?

Ford recommends changing your 2022 Transit Connect’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Transit Connect in the above table. Outside of Ford-recommended oil change intervals, your Transit Connect may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, 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, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Ford Transit Connect. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
