Aftermarket Oil Changes Causing 6.0L Owners to Lose their Lids
Some aftermarket competitors have released 6.0L oil filters for both E and F-Series applications with an integrated oil cap. The complete filter/cap combination is thrown away after each oil change. While not being environmentally friendly, this action is also causing customer dissatisfaction.
It appears that owners are not always aware that this special style of filter/cap is being used – and that their original oil cap has been discarded. The next time they want to use an original style oil filter means they will have to buy another oil cap.
Ford has reduced the pricing of the oil caps to make it easier for dealers to get 6.0L owners back to original parts. Dealers that purchased any caps 60 days prior to the price change will automatically be reimbursed for the price difference.
Remember, the 6.0 and 6.4L oil and fuel filters are patented for a reason and designed specifically for these engines. Help your customers by keeping their truck maintained with genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts.
