What type of oil does an 2015 Ford Taurus take?

• Ford recommends using a Ford-approved 5W-20 motor oil for the 3.5L V6; many owners opt for full synthetic 5W-20 for better high- and low-temperature performance.
• We use OEM-grade or Ford-approved oils and genuine filters to maintain performance, emissions compliance, and warranty protections.
• Our technicians will confirm the correct oil specification during service and advise if a different grade is appropriate for specific driving patterns or environmental conditions.
• Any warranty-covered maintenance or repairs should be performed at a certified dealership to ensure parts and service meet manufacturer requirements.

How much oil does an 2015 Ford Taurus need?

• The 3.5L V6 typically requires approximately 6.0 quarts of oil with an oil filter change; exact capacity can vary slightly by engine variant and should be confirmed in the owner’s manual.
• Our technicians measure and top off oil to the precise factory level to avoid overfill or underfill, both of which can harm engine performance.
• We recommend checking levels between services, especially after long trips or heavy loads, and we verify levels as part of every service visit at the dealership.
