Purchased 2017 Ford Fusion

[tig1]

Bought this yesterday. It does have 27K and has the 2.5 engine. I purposely bought this over the Ecoboost, as I did not want the DI(very expensive fuel pump) and MPG loss with the turbo. Very clean and got a good price. The dealer put Valvoline 5-20 in the sump, with a MC FL910 filter, but I will drain it out soon and replace with Mobil 1 0w20 Advanced Fuel Economy, with the MC FL910.

Does the new 2017 still take a FL-910S filter?

Also, congratulations on the new car!

27,000 miles with conventional oil ? The engine is already worn out.

Put that MB out in the weather so the 2017 is inside

Nice choice, I love the newer styling. Very Aston Martin meets James Bond!

Yes, all except the 2.7 do. The 2.7 takes the FL-2062.

You're gonna run Mobil 1 and a MC filter!? Shocker!

Congrats on the car, I'll be looking forward to reviews and comparisons between it and your older one.

27K on a 2017 model year? Was this an ex-rental?

It is like Deja Vu all over again. Let me see, Mobil 1 with 10k oil interval. Rinse and repeat.

I am Happy for you. Looks like Fusions have been good to you (and Mobil 1).

You can buy a 2017 in the middle of 2016. 27k in 1 year isn't crazy high miles

Congrats on the ride!

I hope your drivers seat ain't as painful as mine.
Ford seems to make seats these days for 110 pound teenage girls.

I have a 2011 fusion with a 2.5. Never been in for repairs in 88,000 miles and 6 1/2 years. Great vehicles!

Don't forget to change your cabin air filter. You should see them after only one year of about 13,500 miles. Much cheaper at rock Auto on line.

Will do. The 2007 Fusion(which I still have) has been a very reliable car.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe it's just you.

A friend has a 2010 Fusion(185K) with the 2.5, and it has performed well for him.
