How often should I change the oil on a 2021–2025 Ford F-150?

Ford's Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor (IOLM) typically triggers a change every 7,500–10,000 miles. However, for EcoBoost engines or owners who tow, haul, or drive in severe conditions, most experts recommend 5,000–7,500 miles. The 5.0L V8 under normal highway use can comfortably go 7,500–10,000 miles with full synthetic.

What Motorcraft oil filter fits the 2021–2025 Ford F-150?

The 2.7L EcoBoost uses Motorcraft FL-2062A. The 3.5L EcoBoost, 3.5L PowerBoost Hybrid, and 5.0L V8 all use Motorcraft FL-500S. The 3.3L V6 (base trim, discontinued after 2023) also uses FL-500S.

What spark plugs does the 2021–2025 Ford F-150 use?

The 3.5L EcoBoost (2022 and newer) uses Motorcraft SP-596. The 2021 3.5L uses Motorcraft SP-594. The 5.0L V8 uses Motorcraft SP-515. The 2.7L EcoBoost uses Motorcraft SP-594. Spark plug replacement interval is 60,000 miles for EcoBoost engines and 90,000–100,000 miles for the 5.0L V8.

What are the Motorcraft air filter and cabin filter part numbers for the 2021–2025 F-150?

Engine air filter: Motorcraft FA-1883 (fits all 2021–2025 F-150 gas engines). Cabin air filter: Motorcraft FP-92 (fits all 2015–2025 F-150 models). Replace the engine air filter every 30,000 miles and the cabin filter every 20,000–25,000 miles or annually.

Does towing affect the F-150 maintenance schedule?

Yes significantly. Ford classifies frequent towing as a severe operating condition. Under severe conditions: change oil every 5,000–7,500 miles, change transmission fluid at 60,000 miles (instead of never for 'lifetime' fluid), inspect front and rear axle fluid every 30,000 miles, and replace spark plugs at the lower end of the range. Transmission fluid is especially critical for towing — 'lifetime' fluid is not truly lifetime under tow load.

What is the Ford F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid maintenance schedule?

The PowerBoost Hybrid (3.5L EcoBoost + electric motor) follows the same core oil and filter schedule as the standard 3.5L EcoBoost. Additional items include: hybrid battery system inspection at each oil change, 12V auxiliary battery inspection annually, and brake fluid replacement every 2–3 years. Use only Motorcraft FL-500S and 5W-30 full synthetic.

Is there an app to track Ford F-150 maintenance?

Yes — CarMaintenance.App is a free iOS app that tracks service intervals for your F-150 by engine type, sends push reminders before each interval hits, and supports custom intervals for towing and heavy-use schedules. It supports all 2021–2025 F-150 variants including PowerBoost.
