I’ve been using the Penzoil so far. Gonna look into this.I did quite a bit of looking both internet and a local run into Autozone, and the two oils that list the new Ford requirement / spec (-961A) out of the manual someone posted on another thread were Mobil 1 Advanced Full Synthetic, and Valvoline Advanced Full Synthetic. Both were of course also listed as API SP and ILSAC GF6A. I did not check the high mileage variants, extended drain variants, or any of the Euro variants, but regular old 5W30 Mobil 1 Advanced Full Synthetic and 5W30 Valvoline Advanced Full Synthetic both listed the new Ford Spec with a meets/or exceeds statement. The Castrol and Penzoil Synthetics both listed the API SP and ILSAC GF6A, but neither listed the most recent Ford spec (they did list the older Ford specs).
Just meant as an FYI, not endorsing these oils or dissing those that haven't changed their formulas and/or packaging yet. Honestly a lot of them may just not have changed the packaging yet.
