FordParts.com to look up the most-recent Ford (and some MotorCraft) part numbers, but pay close attention to the notes because that site does NOT sort for engine or other options; it shows parts for all available engines. Then search those PNs on Amazon, eBay, RockAuto, etc. for the best price before calling the dealership to get their price. Finally, check your local junkyards for good used original parts. They're often better than new parts (aftermarket OR MotorCraft).

Subject: Ford Motor Company Position on Scheduled Maintenance Business
A world-class customer service experience is fundamental to the success of Ford and Lincoln
Dealerships and Ford Motor Company. As we jointly pursue a leadership position in customer
retention, a primary goal at FCSD is to provide your team with the products and services
necessary to continuously enhance the customer service experience that you deliver.
Dealerships that consistently deliver prompt, competitive, high-value service will be one step
closer to enjoying the benefits of lifetime customers.
Top performing dealerships attain a profitable fixed operations business by offering a quality
customer service experience using Ford scheduled maintenance procedures. Ford Motor
Company does not support the sale of unnecessary services, including dealership repair services that significantly deviate from our recommended maintenance guide, service intervals or shop manual procedures.
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
Promoting maintenance intervals that significantly deviate from those published in the Scheduled Maintenance Guide are unnecessary and may damage credibility and result in lost customers.
%uF0B7 Ford Motor Company recommends specific maintenance intervals for various parts and
component systems based on extensive engineering and testing.
%uF0B7 Ford relies on this testing to determine the most appropriate mileage for replacement of oils
and fluids needed to protect the vehicle at the lowest overall cost of ownership to the
customer.
%uF0B7 Reducing maintenance intervals does not improve vehicle durability.
AFTERMARKET OIL & FILTERS
Improvements in engine and lubricant technology have led to increased recommended oil change intervals. Dealerships should use Motorcraft® Oil & Oil Filters, which are approved by Ford Engineering to ensure optimal performance:
%uF0B7 Motorcraft Premium Synthetic Blend Motor Oil is manufactured with high viscosity synthetic
base oils and specifically designed performance additives to ensure optimal performance
over the entire oil change interval.
%uF0B7 Motorcraft Oil Filters use superior seals, pressure relief valves, anti-drain back valves,
polyester and cellulose media with the capacity to handle today%u2019s extended drain intervals.
%uF0B7 Aftermarket oil and oil filters are not recommended by Ford Motor Company.
Ford & Lincoln customers purchasing %u201CThe WORKS%u201D package expect to receive Motorcraft Oil & Oil Filters. Those dealerships not using Motorcraft Oil & Oil Filters are not eligible to participate in %u201CThe WORKS%u201D nationally advertised offers and consumer rebates.
CHEMICALS AND ADDITITVES
Ford Motor Company recommends against the use of all chemicals, treatments or additive
products not identified in the owner guide or unless specifically recommended in publications
such as Technical Service Bulletins. Only approved chemicals, when used as instructed, are
compatible with a vehicle's components and systems.
SYSTEM FLUSHES
The following should be understood related to the topic of engine, transmission, steering, brakes and fuel system fluid flushing services:
%uF0B7 Demonstrating to a customer that specific fluids should be changed because of a change in
their color is a misleading practice. Darkening of many fluids is normal in most cases.
%uF0B7 If flushing is required in conjunction with a transmission component repair, the dealership
should flush the transmission with only the recommended transmission fluid. Use of chemical
transmission flushes can damage the vehicle's transmission.
%uF0B7 Utilizing fluid exchange equipment is acceptable as long as Ford approved fluids are used.
%uF0B7 Fuel injection system flushing is not considered scheduled maintenance by Ford Motor
Company. Should the fuel injection system require cleaning to resolve a specific condition,
chemicals meeting Ford requirements are recommended, such as Motorcraft Premium Fuel
Injector Cleaner, Motorcraft Pressurized Injector Cleaner or Motorcraft Power Flush Injector
Fluid.
%uF0B7 Engine oil system flushing is not a Ford Motor Company approved maintenance procedure
and is considered an unnecessary expense to your customers. Use of chemical/crankcase
flushes can damage the vehicle's engine.
To assist you in growing your needed customer-paid sales, Ford has established very competitive pricing on key maintenance and wear parts; including brakes, batteries, tires, filters, as well as many other products. Additionally, we have worked collaboratively with Dealer Council, PSMAC and the Dealer Advertising Associations to deploy and continually enhance significant Tier I, II and III service marketing initiatives.
Customer satisfaction, loyalty and retention are more important than ever in today's business
environment. Selling high-quality Ford and Motorcraft products builds customer loyalty to your
dealership and reinforces the brand promise implied by your Ford or Lincoln franchise. The entire Ford Team stands ready to help you achieve your consumer experience and dealership profit goals!
