Will need 3/4 & 22mm wrench to install the fumoto valve.

For the filter removal slip a 1 qt zip lock bag over it. That’ll catch the spillage as you take it off. Plus you can then seal the bag making disposal spill proof as well.
Genius. I will give it a try next time. Thanks! 👊🏻
I was thinking "that drain valve is awesome" for about 5 minutes until I saw you remove the oil filter and realized there's nothing you can do to make that a cleaner, easier job.
Still have to remove oil filter unfortunately and the shield plate. I’m gonna start filling up my 5qt jug instead of using the oil pan. Idk pros and cons to everything I guess
I heard of using a soda cup from a "fast food" place to catch the filter oil, but I haven't, tried it yet.
I used a solo cup
Thanks for the video. Get yourself a creeper to make those oil changes easier.
Would definitely help. Man if the oil filter was up top in the engine, that would make things so much easier. Just would only have to take off that plastic piece on the shield plate and drain the oil through the tube using the fumoto valve.
You should start charging it at 5k , I have the same truck and that oil also is used to cool the turbo . Just my opinion if you want a cleaner running maverick
Yes after this oil change I’ll be changing it around that time and really thinking about switching to full synthetic oil.
Just go to a oil center and have it sucked out
5k is the way to go. I just got my 24 Mav and I will be changing at 5k. I did the same on my 2012 Focus I bought new it's got 200k miles and is still going strong.
The recommendation for this engine for over a decade. 5k. Maverick owners, realize this 2.0L has been around a long time. Same power train with 8F35 has been used since 2020 Escape.
So does Ford wants you to change the oil every 20,000 miles??? 3:57 But you are doing it every 10k miles? If so, I would suggest that you change the oil every 5k miles if you want to get the longest life out of your engine.
Yea ford says every 10k miles and I was going by what they stated. After this oil change I will be changing a little sooner. I believe this second oil change was around the 8.5k mark.
Try using a hammer and a punch to make a hole in the filter ...it supposedly drains out the hole making less of a mess. I have yet to try it, but it's obviously only for vertical oil filters. The only caution is to make sure you have the correct replacement filter on hand or another vehicle to go get a filter.
9:17 Also, my theory for why there's a little extra oil that drains out is because of the TiVCT camshaft phasers. They use oil to change the timing. When i had a 17' Focus, it slowed to a drip then after about 5 minutes went back to a stream
I was going to use a punch for this video but I could not find my dang punches anywhere haha. Never done it before but have seen videos on it and it looks promising!
God to know about the residual oil. I left it draining while I went to homedepot and it still had some left once I undid the bolt.
Nice job on the oil change. I liked how you suggested cracking the filler cap and that you used clean oil on the filter gasket. What are you thoughts on putting some fresh oil in the new filter before spinning it on? Nice work!
Thank you! There is a big debate on putting oil in the filter lol. personally, I’ve never done it but this last oil change I did. I believe some model vehicles have the oil filter installed upside down in the engine bay and you can’t pre-fill those! I’d just do what you want to do.
Go with a good synthetic oil like Mobil One with a 5K change regimen. Your 2.0 will thank you.
Definately switching to full synthetic next oil change!
I noticed that you did not fill the oil filter with oil before installing, some people say it’s necessary.
Probably just preference. I’ve never had a problem with it. Some oil filters are mounted upside down in some vehicles and you cant pre fill those.
Could you drill a hole into the shield then use some kind of right angle extendeder and put the fumoto drain valve on the outside of the shield?
The shield on mine has a black plastic piece that can come off which would allow you to run a hose from the valve to your drain pan. Only thing is, is that you still need to get to the oil filter and the shield plate still needs to come off
If this isn't engineering gross incompetence, what is it, is this the best that they can come up with under the car, it could be put up top under the hood easily accessible and made not to have oil pouring out in volume after undoing the filter.
100% agree that an oil filter up top would be a lot easier with oil changes. Not sure what the logic is behind it though 🤔
Mercedes to Corolla? Say more. Is the Corolla working as you expected? Why the swap?
Honestly we decided to trade it in for a used Corolla. The Benz was stupid expensive to maintain. So far it’s holding up well!
@@JOSHIC I’ve had German cars as well, crazy stupid expensive to maintain
@@BradimusMaximus78 yes I had a vw before I traded that it for the mav. I could still do basic services and fix some things on the Jetta at least. Mercedes I couldn’t
@@JOSHIC, I had a GLK where the check engine light was on more than it was off, they could never fix it so when I traded it in for an Explorer Mercedes called and gave me 5k as a consolation prize, they made it right but no more German cars.
It’s no small feat to work “Nipple” into an oil change video.
😂😂😂
How much for this valve?
It’s 35 for the valve and 8 for the adapter
Your going to long on your oil changes. Ford Ecoboost engines like clean oil and lots of flow. That oil needs to be changed every 5000 miles. Do not pay attention to what the computer in the dash says. Look up any of the Ford master techs on youtube and they will all tell you the same thing. This is my 6th vehicle with an ecoboost and I always go off 5000 miles and cheers on using the OEM filter. Ford like to deny warranties for engines if you use any other brand. Oh and only buy synthetic. The synthetic blend is not worth it.
Hey thank you for the input. I have decided to start doing the changes sooner and will be using full synthetic next time for sure! I seen a video of the ford tech saying that the synthetic blend was the minimal spec to use and he recommended using full. For sure will be more on top of things moving forward!
30k on transmission and PTU. 30k on first rear diff change, then 60k after (rear diff is not used >50% of the time)
Whats so hard about using a socket and ratchet to take the drain bolt out every 5000 miles? This is the most useless modification ever.
Nothin is hard about it. I like it.
It's not hard although it's one less step that eliminates the need to unscrew the plug as hot oil is draining out (ever drop the plug into your oil while changing it?). Also eliminates the need to replace the crush washer.
