* Engine size matters: Different engine sizes require different oil capacities. You need to know which engine is in your Expedition (4.6L V8, 5.4L V8, etc.).
* Oil type matters: The type of oil you use (conventional, synthetic blend, full synthetic) can affect the amount slightly.
* Oil filter change: When changing the oil filter, you'll need to add a bit extra oil to fill the new filter.
How to Find the Right Amount:
1. Check Your Owner's Manual: This is the most accurate source for the recommended oil capacity.
2. Look Under the Hood: There might be a sticker on the engine or near the dipstick that lists the oil capacity.
3. Consult a Mechanic: A trusted mechanic can provide the correct information for your specific Expedition model.
Important Note: Always double-check the oil capacity before adding any oil. Overfilling your engine with oil can cause serious damage.
