Been running Castrol edge 5w30 in my 2.0 EcoBoost Fusion for last 3 to 4 oil changes now but my oil change is coming due and noticed QS ultimate durability is on sale for a great price at Canadian Tire and Castrol is not... Was wondering what everyone thinks of Quaker State Ultimate Durability these days....
Quaker state ultimate durability in a 2.0 EcoBoost?

I wouldn't do an extended drain with it but otherwise no reason to not use it.

I think it has a pretty high moly count and if I’m nit mistaken, it’s Dexos approved. I’ve never really heard anything bad about it on here...name brand...good price. I’d go for it.
I bought a bunch of the stuff recently when Walmart priced them down to $14/5qt. I've used it a handful of times, I consider it top tier oil, should perform on par with the Castrol Edge you were using previously. Your engine probably won't know the difference, both are great oils.
I've been using it in my 3.5 EcoBoost for 3 years, I'm a fan. It's one of the quieter oils I've used in my EcoBoost. Menards used to have it on sale for $3 per quart after rebate a few times a year and i stocked up.

If wanting to run spec'd oil and it meets your specs, run for as long as your OLM indicates.
One vehicle gets an annual OC on St. Patrick's day with the green bottle. Great Stuff!

I have ran it in our 16 Fusion 2.0 in the past, I switched all cars over to supertech synthetic based on price. Our ecoboost oil always smells like gas and I do 4,000-5,000 mile oil changes on it.
Depending on how urgently you want/need to do the change, you might be better off waiting for Pennzoil Platinum/Ultra Platinum to inevitably go on sale at Canadian Tire (it isn't this week, at least in my market). I say this not because there is necessarily a significant performance difference, but because Pennzoil has a rebate promo on while Quaker State doesn't.

I've been runningQuaker State Ultimate Durability 5w30 since about 2017 in my Golf with 6 Months OCI which usually amounts to 4-5K miles.
It's a good motor oil. But I'll be migrating to Mobil 1 ESP 5w30. Hoping to catch it on sale at Napa or some other place.
It's quite a bit more money thanQuaker State Ultimate Durability but more appropriate for my 1.8 TSI GDI/Turbo engine which Gokhan confirmed.
Here are numbers and add pack for Quaker State Ultimate Durability.

Good question. I don't remember now. Should of bookmark that info. QS doesn't have it in their PDS.
Quaker State Ultimate Durability 5W30(and Quaker State Ultimate Durability in general) is one of my go-to oils. It used to me the GO-TO oil for my vehicles but W*M Supertech Full Synthetic is in 1st place for me now. Not that I think that ST is better, it's just always available at a $lightly better price.
Quaker State Ultimate Durability 5W30 has this Ford WSS-M2C946-A, WSS-M2C946-B1.
5W20 has Ford WSS-M2C945-A, WSS-M2C945-B1
0W20 has Ford WSS-M2C947-A, WSS-M2C947-B1
5W20 has Ford WSS-M2C945-A, WSS-M2C945-B1

I've had it in my truck for the past 14k miles. (I'm at the end of the 2nd OCI with it) Seems fine. I would keep running it, but I got a boatload of Shell RGT on clearance, that's on deck for the next 9 OCIs.
