2005 V6 Tribute Oil
Is it possible to use a 10-40 oil Castrol Magnatec in this engine ?
There seems to be a lower limit of 10-30 in the manual supplied with the car.
I know it is a Ford Engine - has Cleveland on the side.
Thanks

It depends on,
A- where are you in the world?
B- How many Km's has the engine done?
C- Does the engine rattle or smoke?

NO - Usual Start Up Clatter Then runs OK
My concern is that I read somewhere that too thick an oil can cause issues in a modern Ford Engine

At the Mazda dealership where I work we use 5w40.
Either 10w30 or 10w40 will be ok for a Tribute.
