What are the recommended oil options for a Ford S-Max?

I recently bought a used Ford S-Max and I'm not sure what type of oil to use. Can I use synthetic or conventional? Also, how often should I change the oil?

For your Ford S-Max, it is recommended to use synthetic oil for optimal performance and engine protection. As for oil changes, it is best to follow the recommended schedule in your owner's manual, typically every 5,000 to 7,500 miles.

I personally use conventional oil in my Ford S-Max, and haven't had any issues. However, if you want to go with synthetic for peace of mind, it can't hurt. And as for oil changes, it's always a good idea to follow the manufacturer's recommendations.

I've been using synthetic oil in my Ford S-Max for years and highly recommend it. It provides better protection and lasts longer than conventional oil. As for oil changes, I stick to the manufacturer's recommended schedule.
