Frequently Asked Questions
- How often should I change the oil on a 2011 Ford F-150?The 2011 F-150 uses the IOLM for all engines. The new 3.5L EcoBoost requires full synthetic SAE 5W-30 oil. The 5.0L Coyote V8 uses full synthetic SAE 5W-20, a change from the conventional oil allowed on the outgoing 5.4L and 4.6L. Typical intervals are 7,500 to 10,000 miles.
- What changed in 2011 F-150 maintenance compared to 2010?The 2011 model year brought an entirely new engine lineup. The 5.4L and 4.6L Triton V8s were retired in favor of the 5.0L Coyote and 3.5L EcoBoost, both requiring synthetic oil. The 3.7L V6 replaced the 4.6L as the base engine. Oil capacities and spark plug specifications changed accordingly.
- Does the 2011 EcoBoost have the same spark plug issues as the 5.4L?No. The 3.5L EcoBoost uses modern spark plug designs that do not suffer from the seizure issues that plagued the 5.4L 3-valve Triton V8. EcoBoost plugs are rated for 100,000 miles and can be removed with standard procedures. This was a major reliability improvement.
- When should the 2011 F-150 transmission fluid be changed?The 2011 F-150 uses a 6-speed automatic with Ford Mercon LV fluid. Ford considers it a sealed unit under normal conditions with inspection at 150,000 miles. Trucks used for regular towing should have fluid inspected at 60,000 miles.
