Compare Ford oil change quotes from specialist garages

Ford was the first carmaker to introduce a vehicle assembly line, speeding up the process of production and bringing cars to more people than ever before. The brand's motorsport credentials are equally impressive. In the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans race, Ford ended Ferrari's six-year winning streak, beating the likes of Porsche and Lamborghini to the title with an ever-popular GT40.

Jim Morrison, the lead singer of rock band The Doors, famously adored his 1967 Ford Shelby GT500, the only car he ever owned. It is a mystery to this day where the vehicle ended up after his death.

You should regularly arrange a car oil change to keep your engine in good condition. With modern lubricants, your car can usually go between 5,000 and 7,000 miles before it needs an engine oil change. Your owner's manual will tell you the recommended distance.

If a warning light tells you your car's oil is low, you should top it up or book an oil change as soon as you can. It's also worth considering booking an oil service that includes a complete oil and filter change. Replacing your filter is vital; your car's performance depends on the oil distribution in the engine.
