How to change the oil and oil filter on a ford ecoboost. It's a very simple job to do and very important to change at the correct 5000 mile internals to ensure longevity of the wet belt. A wet belt is basically a cambelt but running in oil. Which is actually a terrible idea and the reason so many eco boost engines fail.

last week I changed mine, the filter had been put on by Hulk at the dealer, I had to use the "chain tool" with only one hand since there's no space for both around the filter, really a lot of swearing was involved PS: did you try to prefill the filter? I didn't and a friend of mine told me it could hurt the engine, but the filter is horizontal duh

Yes, easy job, I did it in December on my sons 1 lit eco boost ford focus. What is the main cause of the belt failure ?? Is it a recall or just lack of oil changes ??

Belt failure is the combination of a lack of oil changes and incorrect oil grade. But it's primaliry a bad design of a rotating rubber part constantly in hot oil. The belt breaks down and bits of rubber come off and block the oil pump strainer Engine then starved of oil. Eco boom!
