How often should I change the engine oil in my Ford Kuga?

I recently purchased a Ford Kuga and I'm not sure how often I should be changing the engine oil. What is the recommended maintenance schedule for this specific model and how can I ensure the longevity of my car's engine?

It is recommended to change the engine oil in your Ford Kuga every 5,000 miles or every six months, whichever comes first. However, if you frequently drive in dusty or extreme weather conditions, it is best to change it more frequently.

As a Ford mechanic, I would recommend following the recommended maintenance schedule to ensure the best performance and longevity of your car's engine. If you notice any unusual noises or changes in the way your car runs, then it's best to get it checked by a professional.

In my experience with Ford cars, changing the engine oil every 5,000 miles has worked best for me. It's also important to use the recommended engine oil for your specific model to ensure optimal performance.
