What kind of oil do you put in a 2003 Ford Taurus?

The recommended oil type for a 2003 Ford Taurus depends on the engine it has. There were several engine options available that year. To know for sure, check your owner's manual. It will specify the exact type and weight of oil recommended by Ford.

However, generally speaking, a 2003 Ford Taurus likely uses:

* 5W-20 This is a common viscosity for newer vehicles, and it's quite possible your Taurus uses this.

* 5W-30 This is another common viscosity, and may be an acceptable alternative depending on the climate and your engine's specific requirements (again, check your manual).

Crucially: The owner's manual will also specify the type of oil (conventional, synthetic blend, or full synthetic). Using the wrong type of oil can damage your engine. Don't rely on online guesses; consult your owner's manual.
