Says it all!2018 Mazda 3 @ 107,000 miles. Initially 0W-20 while under warranty but switched to 5W-20 after expiration. Always use Motorcraft filters in all my cars Ford or not except my AMC. What went in is the same as what came out.

The number I have seen most for replacing new vehicle oil is 1,500 miles . Low enough if concerned with internal engine debris removal and high enough to have gotten a bit of mileage out of the factory fill . Your 2nd OCI and on can be at your regular OCI rate (i.e. 5K miles / 6 months).I want that factory oil out asap. I’ve broken in 3 new engines here of late and changed early and glad I did. It took a few oil changes before I was happy with what drained. To each their own though.
Nice to see (another) 2.5L Fusion engine racking up the miles.2014 Ford Fusion

Keep me updated on this. I’m intriguedNice to see (another) 2.5L Fusion engine racking up the miles.
I'm in the process of swapping a 2.5L Fusion junkyard engine with 70k miles into my 2006 Miata. Hopefully it serves me well.
