What is the ideal oil for a Ford Mondeo engine?

I recently bought a used Ford Mondeo and I noticed that the engine is making some unusual noises. After consulting with a mechanic, they suggested that I change the oil. As a new Ford owner, I'm not sure what type of oil is best for my Mondeo. What would be the ideal oil for my Ford Mondeo engine?

Hello Samantha, congratulations on your new Ford Mondeo! For the ideal oil for your engine, it is best to stick with the manufacturer's recommendations. Ford recommends using a synthetic blend 5W-20 engine oil for most Mondeo models. This type of oil provides better wear protection and improves fuel economy.

Hey Samantha, I've been a Ford Mondeo owner for years now and I suggest using a full synthetic 5W-30 engine oil. It costs a bit more, but it offers superior protection for your engine and helps with cold weather starts.
