Ford Mondeo- development of the European branch of the Ford concern. The model has medium-sized dimensions, and is focused primarily on the European buyer. At the moment, the line has as many as five generations and today we will talk about servicing the latest, fifth model.
The fifth generation Mondeo has been produced since 2013 and has many similarities with the Ford Evos (Fusion). Maintaining a modern car is no more difficult than five and ten years ago. The shape of the car has changed, but the principle remains. We drain the old working out with new oil into the engine - fill it up. At the same time, do not forget to change the cleaning filter. The regulation calls for a complete replacement. oily liquid every 15,000 km or once a year. In this case, the operating conditions of the vehicle must be taken into account. In severe conditions, which include high or low air temperatures, poor pavement and other conditions.
Refueling volumes and oil selection
The owners of the latest fifth generation Mondeo prefer to pour original oil Ford-Castrol 5W-20, dealers also fill in the same oil before giving the “iron friend” to their new owner. When choosing a different viscosity, you should first of all focus on the presence of Ford tolerances. For example Motul 5w30 913D is perfect for a sorbed engine.
The amount of fluid required depends on the specific engine configuration.
A 2.5 Duratec unit will require 5.2 liters of fresh oil.
2.0 EcoBoost (R9CH, R9CB, R9CF) - 5.4L
Advice! If you change the oil not strictly according to the regulations (15 thousand km) but earlier, say at 12-13 thousand km, nothing bad will happen, and the dirty liquid will be replaced by a new oily film.
Instruction
- Engine warming up. If the engine oil is in a cold state, then it takes a very long time to wait for it to drain, and not all dirty mining will merge. We need to clean the engine crankcase from old oil, the more it flows out the better - for this we warm up the engine to normal temperature 50-60 degrees.
- For easy access to the drain plug (and in some models the oil filter is also attached from the bottom) and the bottom of the car as a whole, you need to jack it up or drive into the inspection hole ( the best way). Also, in some models, "protection" of the engine crankcase can be installed.
- For a better stack of old oil, you need to allow air into the engine - unscrew the filler cap (where we will then fill in fresh oil). You can also pull out the dipstick.
- Substitutes a large container (equal to the amount of oil being poured).
- We unscrew the drain plug with a key. Sometimes drain plug made as usual "bolt" under the open-end wrench, and sometimes you can unscrew it with a four or hexagon. Do not forget to wear protective gloves, the oil will most likely wake up warm, but you need to be careful.
- We wait about 10-15 minutes until the mining drains into a basin or a cut plastic canister.
- An optional item but very effective! Flushing the engine with a special fluid is not included in the maintenance schedule and is not mandatory - but. A little confused, you will much better flush the engine from the old, black oil. At the same time, washing is carried out with the old oil filter within 5-10 minutes. You will be surprised what black oil will pour out with this liquid. It is very easy to use this liquid. A detailed description must be included on the flush fluid label.
- We replace the old filter with a new one. In some models, it is not the filter itself and the filter element that changes (usually yellow). Impregnation of the filter with new oil before installation is a mandatory procedure. Lack of oil in a new filter before starting the engine can cause oil starvation, which in turn can cause filter deformation. In general, this is not a good thing. Remember to also lubricate the rubber o-ring before installation.
- Fill in new oil. After making sure that the drain plug is screwed on and a new oil filter is installed, we can start filling in new oil, guided by the dipstick. The level must be between the minimum and maximum marks. Also, you need to remember that after the first start of the engine, a little oil will go away and the level will drop.
- In the future, when the engine is running, the oil level will probably change, be careful the first few days of operation. Recheck the oil level on the dipstick after the first start.
Don't be afraid to take matters into your own hands, because an oil change can be done without assistance within an hour. Do not forget about the need for dry rags for hands and a canister for draining mining. Follow our instructions and you will succeed.
Hello! My car - Ford Mondeo 1998 1.8 petrol. I took it with a mileage of 165,000, they filled in Castrol 10w40. The dealer washed the engine, filled in the Ford formula 5w30. Consumption for 10,000 km - 3 liters. I switched to an elf 900SXR 5W30 A5 - consumption - 2 liters per 10,000 km. Now the mileage is 200,000 km. Want to try Liqui 5W40 Optimal? What is your advice? Many thanks! (Nikolai)
Hello Nikolay. This question is relevant for many Ford owners. We will try to help you with this.
[ Hide ]
What MM is suitable for Ford Mondeo?
We do not want to say anything towards your dealer, but practice shows that employees of such companies often take money for something they do not do. We do not doubt the veracity of your words, but nevertheless, we recommend that you independently flush the motor.
This is easy to do:
- After draining the spent motor fluid the drain plug is screwed in and a certain amount of flushing agent is poured into the motor through the filler neck (see instructions on the label).
- The car starts, it is desirable to carry out a control trip so that the flushing is guaranteed to get into all the components and assemblies of the internal combustion engine.
- After that, the "flush" is drained and new oil is poured.
I explain why this is necessary. In practice, we have encountered the dishonesty of dealers many times, so these recommendations should not be ignored. Only when you are 100% sure that your motor is clean can you fill in a new MM. As for the consumables directly, we cannot say anything for sure about Liquid Moli 5W40 Optimal. But we can say with confidence that if you decide to go with the Likvi line, we recommend that you use Special Tec SAE 5W-30. This lubricant has been approved for use in Ford engines. Moreover, in practice, such MM practically does not go into the engine.
In addition, especially for vehicle Ford Mondeo was developed by another high-quality foreign analogue - Eco-nergy from a French manufacturer. Consider using this consumable, it was not in vain that it was created specifically for a car like yours? Another point - the consumption of MM by the motor is not always the result of low-quality fluid. As far as we know, both Castrol and Elf are fairly high-quality oils. Perhaps you have certain problems with the internal combustion engine - we recommend that you undergo a diagnosis.
Video "What happens if you do not change the oil for a long time"
What are the consequences for motorists untimely replacement motor fluid, you can learn from the video.
Many owners service Ford vehicles at official dealers. This is extremely important especially when changing the oil. But not all motorists know which oil is optimal for a Ford engine of a particular model. Let's try to figure it out.
Ford Motors analyzes lubricants on a regular basis. Experts conduct tests and apply the most safe oils for use in Ford power units. However, even without that, motor fluids can be selected according to the developed tolerances and standards from an American company.
Manufacturer's recommendation for oil use
According to technical instructions Ford vehicle manual for all modified ICE systems recommended to use motor lubricant based on synthesized substances. In older versions of tolerances, the American manufacturer advised using oils with a viscosity of 5w30 according to the SAE classification.
The development of modified engines with turbocharged Eco Boost systems impressed not only with powerful performance, but also with low fuel consumption. Therefore, Ford engineers decided to create new motor oils for these internal combustion engines.
As a result, an alternative synthetic energy-saving lubricant with a viscosity of 5w20 was created. This factory product has a low temperature viscosity and provides:
- easy start of the motor;
- reduction of fuel consumption;
- wear resistance of mechanisms and motor parts in the winter.
Approvals and specifications
Engine oils with a viscosity index of 5w30 or 5w20 are not recommended for any Ford engine model. Note that the 5w30 oil canister should contain information about outdated tolerance specifications from Ford:
- WSS-M2C913-C;
- WSS-M2C913-A;
- WSS-M2C913-B.
At least one of the indicated tolerances must be present on the container. New requirements for 5w20 synthetics were specified in the WSS-M2C948-B approval. These standards apply only to gasoline units.
Concerning diesel systems ICE, then oils with a viscosity of 5w30 are recommended for them, corresponding to factory tolerances WSS-M2C913-D.
- an extended replacement interval is required;
- engines are boosted and run on diesel and high-octane fuel;
- it is necessary to protect metal parts from thermal oxidation;
- friction and fuel consumption must be reduced.
Owners who studied the Ford operating instructions probably noticed the original signs from Castrol, as well as recommendations for the use of oils from this manufacturer.
Castrol and Ford have been fruitfully cooperating for many years in the development of automotive engine oils.
The Castrol range of motor oils includes two types recommended for ford cars:
- Castrol 5w20 - for internal combustion engines operating on high-octane fuel;
- Castrol 5w30 - for power plants on solid fuel.
According to laboratory studies, the advantage of using Castrol Magnatec 5w20 over 5w30, corresponding to the older version of the WSS-M2C913-C approval, was revealed. The new Castrol Ford engine fluid has reduced fuel consumption:
- 1.5% on an intercity highway;
- 1.2% on the expressway;
- 1.1% on urban road.
Lubrication was the first joint development between Ford and Castrol. Such oils are sold only in official dealer stores.

Ford, one of the largest and oldest automakers, was the first in the world to introduce assembly line assembly, making it possible to mass-produce automobiles. Currently, the brand is represented in all major world markets, in 2014 almost 2.5 million cars were sold worldwide.
IN Russian Ford gained popularity due to the opening of local production in 2002. To date, factories in Vsevolozhsk, Naberezhnye Chelny and Yelabuga have launched the assembly of Focus, Mondeo, Fiesta, Kuga, Ecosport, Explorer and Transit models.
The automaker uses its own lubricant approval system - WSS. What oil to fill in a Ford engine depends on its type and modification. Since 2011, gasoline engines most often require oil with a viscosity of SAE 5W20 with WSS-MC2-948-B approval. Diesel engines and earlier gasoline units predominantly require 5W30 oils of WSS-MC2-913-A,B,C,D specifications. Oil for cars up to the 2000s of production should be selected in accordance with the instructions for use, most are suitable for TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 5W40 and TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 ENERGY 0W30.
TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE NFC 5W30
For most modern cars Ford requires WSS-MC2-913 5W30 viscosity engine oil. Made with synthetic technology motor oil for Ford TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE NFC 5W30 complies with WSS-MC2-913-C and, through backward compatibility, WSS-MC2-913-A/B. This oil is designed for Ford with gasoline engines until 2011 and for almost all cars of the brand with diesel engines.
TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE NFC 5W30 has been tested by the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (ACEA) for compliance with the ACEA A5 / B5 international standard and showed excellent results by key indicators. In particular, its high protective properties, resistance to oxidation and deposits, and a beneficial effect on fuel consumption have been demonstrated.
An oil film between moving parts reduces friction during the movement of the pistons in the cylinder.
TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE NFC 5W-30 engine oil protects the engine, especially against abrasive wear associated with carbon deposits.
TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE EcoB 5W20
IN gasoline engines Ford of the last years of development, the manufacturer recommends using SAE 5W20 viscosity oil, which has greater fluidity than 5W30, and due to the reduced resistance to movement of the engine working surfaces, fuel consumption can be reduced. Engine oil for Ford TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE EcoB 5W20 complies with the Ford WSS-MC2-948-B standard, which is required by EcoBoost 1.0, 1.6, 2.0 engines and naturally aspirated gasoline engines latest generation installed on Focus models, Fiesta, B-max, C-max, Kuga. Backward compatible with the WSS-MC2-913-B/C specification allows this oil to be used in other Ford gasoline engines except Ka and Focus modifications ST and Focus RS.
The characteristics of TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 FUTURE EcoB 5W20 engine oil guarantee confident cold starts and provide protection against wear and deposits in the engine and exhaust aftertreatment systems. In addition, according to the ACEA M111 FE test, this oil reduces fuel consumption by 3.55% compared to the reference value.
Transmission oils for Ford vehicles
For Ford manual transmissions, TOTAL TRANSMISSION SYN FE 75W90 is recommended. This oil provides long transmission life by protecting it from wear and preventing corrosion. It is suitable for most cars of the brand sold in Russia with manual transmission.
The production of the Ford Mondeo middle class car began in 1993. For almost 25 years, the model has gone through 4 full-fledged generations and has been produced in the Mk V version since 2013. If the first Mondeo, offered before 1996, was a kind of experiment of the concern, then its appearance in the second generation became more expressive and laid the foundation for a new design model range Mondeo. The engine range was represented by a wide selection of petrol and diesel units with a working volume of 1.6 to 2.5 liters. Next, it will be considered which oil can be poured and how much for their proper maintenance.
The third generation Mondeo with the Mk III index was produced until 2007. The model became longer than its predecessor, received minor cosmetic changes and was completed diesel engines for 2.0 and 2.2 liters, as well as gasoline modifications with a displacement of 1.8, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0. The engines were paired with a 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic. From 2000 to 2007, the Mondeo was restyled twice, after which it gave way to the Mk IV generation. The four lasted on the assembly line until 2013. The novelty was developed on a new platform, which gave the concern the opportunity to install a 5-cylinder Volvo engine on it and abandon the V-shaped “sixes”. Diesel displacement: 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, and gasoline units– 1.6, 2.0, 2.3 and 2.5. In 2010, Mondeo underwent an update that added a 2.2-liter diesel engine under the hood.
Mondeo V (aka Ford Fusion) debuted in 2012 at the US International Auto Show. A distinctive feature of the model is now breathtakingly sporty design. A more powerful range of engines also matches the external dynamic style: gasoline eco-boosters with 125 and 160 hp. (1.0 and 1.5 liters). However, the basic version for Russian buyers is equipped with a 149-horsepower 2.5-liter aspirated engine that works with an automatic transmission. Turbo modifications are available on the domestic market with 2-liter engines with a capacity of 199 and 240 hp.
