Very good information for people. We service a fleet of Transit T350. They all have the 3.5 turbo. Some are now nearing 300,000 miles. Ford oil filter and a good full synthetic oil, every 3,000 miles. All of fluids every 50,000. Other then spark plugs and coils. The engine have been bullet proof. We do see EVAP systems, purge valve issues along with rear brake slider sticking the calipers.

On the Mass Pike with our 2015 Expedition at the speed limit another car kept repeatedly inching up alongside then falling back, and I got tired of that, so I looked at my wife and said "if that black chevy pulls on me one more time he's going to find out what twin turbos are all about! My 3 daughters in the back seat yelled "Do it Dad!" Today all 3 are excellent drivers. [ I'll bet Dustin has all the ladies (& gay boys) coming in for service ] What a direct and well-spoken guy.

Also glad you hit on economy. People don't realize that for any amount of work, it takes a certain amount of power. Weather V-8 or turbo V-6. Power takes fuel. But most trucks drive around empty. That is where economy is maximized. My 2018 F-150 has gotten 27 MPG on the highway, granted by setting cruise control at the speed limit for the 70 miles . In the same situation, a 5.0 wouldn't get that good of mileage.

Very well spoken and easy to listen to. Everything you say makes sense. I particularly agree with the synthetic oil especially in a highly strung engine. Nothing wrong with changing it before the recommended intervals either. I personally would not have one as they are a lot of tech for a relatively minor gain. The big old low stressed engines will tolerate lax oil changes and non optimals more than one of these and a lot cheaper to fix IMHO. Also less prone to throwing a fault code because a spark plug is not within spec. Having said that, I run a CRDI turbo diesel engine in our Sportage. 115k and no problems yet. Always get it serviced on time or a bit before.

Been driving a 3.5 since 2014. 135,000 miles on it. Only problem I’ve had with the engine has been O2 sensors. Semi synthetic oil every 5k. Great engine so far.

Glad to see a video not bashing the 3.5l's. I have a 19 Expedition and I love it. The ecoboost sold me on the truck. I drove 6.2 Denalis and there was no comparison when it came to low end torque these big vehicles need to get going.

I don't own such vehicles, but instead several motorcycles in years past. The number one maintenance item on them is the chain. They stretch and wear the sprocket teeth. Excellent presentation.

The trouble is in our job , customers have not been brought up with modern technology, they don't understand that you will wreck your engine if you don't service it , they always want to skimp on repairs , would rather have their hair done or new nails , then cry when it's gonna cost a packet to fix , we as motor vehicle repairers , have not yet joined the magic circle so have no magic wand to fix it , great video , fully agree , same shit over here in the UK , in Jaguar engines

@sheldonhall7309 4 жыл бұрын

It doesn’t help that the manufacturers have stretched the recommended maintenance intervals in the name of selling “lower cost of maintenance” to the buyer. Case in point...Nearly every automaker that uses the ZF 8HP transmission says it’s “fill for life” while ZF explicitly recommends changing the fluid at 8yr/100000km.

In the last 100 years or so, what car/engine hasn't begun to fail without proper maintenance? Sloppy maintenance (especially of the engine) is like giving bad luck a disproportionate chance to wreck things while giving the owner absolutely nothing to gain from not servicing the vehicle properly. Some engine type with certain usage patterns might last for some time despite lax maintenance but I don't even see the point of comparing the durability of different engines without the assumption that all engines are first and foremost properly maintained.

It's a good thing people don't do the recommended maintenance, I mean how much business would be lost if everyone maintained their vehicle to spec.

Great video explaining the fact that these engines need to have regularly scheduled oil changes. Just like the Triton 5.4l change the oil ever 3000 to 3500 miles with synthetic oil and the engines are dependable. Another great point is the fuel economy. Bottom line if you need a vehicle like a full size pickup you really can't expect to get the same mileage as per say a Toyota corolla. It's common sense.

@paulwolf8444 2 жыл бұрын

It really doesn't matter that much in terms of synthetic v conventional. Synthetic just has different flow characteristics. Oil never stops being oil. You don't change oil, You are draining unburned gasoline. The sooner the better. Either oil gets just as contaminated that's the bad part. With synthetic you have some overall better long term wear.

Great video! I am so tired of hearing about timing chain stretch on these engines, it is as you say, timing chain wear from lack of maint. You have a very good explanation of that issue.

Probably the best information I've found on these engines. Well done! I've been torn between the 5.0 and an ecoboost. I feel more comfortable choosing a 3.5 now as long as I run a catch-can and change oil every 3,000 miles.
