Exclamation 2.7 eco 2015 oil change must read!!!!

I LET MY OIL DRAIN FOR 25 MINUTES ON MY 2O15 2.7 ECO. I PUT THE PLUG BACK IN AND RESUMED THE NEXT DAY. JUST FOR KICKS I OPENED THE PLUG AGAIN AND AT LEAST A HALF QUART CAME OUT!!!!!! AT LEAST........

NOW, IF I WOULD HAVE FOLLOWED THE DIRECTIONS AND/OR DID WHAT MY FORD DEALER DID, THERE WOULD BE A LOT OF DIRTY OIL INSIDE MY $49K ENGINE.

WOW, PLEASE BE AWARE

Try the same thing on another vehicle, and you'd get the same results. Your engine cost you $49k???

Nothing unique, any engine would do that.

Sammy agreed with you, if that's the case I would be very shocked. Like I said, with the fact that this engine drains so slow, just something to be aware of.
Maybe its time for some skoolin' for me lol

That is perfectly normal. Most people can't afford to spend 24 hours changing oil.
