So not to start an oil argument, if it reads full synthetic, it’s synthesized conventional oil with a changed molecule. If you wanna run a true synthetic oil, the bottle needs to read synthetic oil like Royal Purple or Amsoil. . Both about the same and give outstanding lubricant properties.
You may be right. All I’m saying I I use Motorcraft Full synthetic on my last 3 Coyotes.
20+ oil changes and they all ran tip top

DH, Sti
I have 155 miles on my 25 DH and decided to pull the dipstick. The level was barely and I mean barely touching the lower dot. I put a 1/2 qt of oil in it and it now registered right in the center of the cross hatch area.
I had heard Ford is shipping these things ‘low’ on oil and it appears how you look at it the levels are 1/2-1 qt low from the factory.
How do you guys check the oil? When the car is cold or wait 5 minutes after normal driving?

On my wife’s old 2022 GT convertible 10qts put it right in the middle of the hash marks. I put 10.5 in it to keep it at the top.
Our S550 had a plastic oil pan and as I understand the S650 has a metal pan. Don’t know yet if there is a capacity change between pans.
