Ford Transit Oil Capacity Chart
| APPLICATION / ITEM | SPECIFICATION | NOTES |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 3.5L Duratec with filter | 6.0 US qt | 5.7 L |
| 2022 3.5L EcoBoost with filter | 6.0 US qt | 5.7 L |
| Specified oil | SAE 5W-30 | Ford WSS-M2C961-A1 |
| Extreme-cold alternative | SAE 0W-30 | WSS-M2C963-A1 at -22°F/-30°C or below |
| Dipstick MIN-to-nominal | About 1.0 US qt | 0.9 L in Ford manual |
Shared capacity does not mean shared oil identity. The 2022 Ford rows call for SAE 5W-30 meeting WSS-M2C961-A1, with SAE 0W-30 meeting WSS-M2C963-A1 identified for extremely cold climates. Ford notes that approximately 1.0 qt moves the dipstick from minimum to nominal and warns against filling above maximum. After replacing the filter, add less than six quarts, run the engine, inspect for leaks, wait for drain-back on level ground and approach the full mark gradually.

2022 Ford Transit Oil Capacity: Duratec vs. EcoBoost FAQs
How much oil does a 2022 Ford Transit take?+
6.0 US qt (5.7 L) including the filter, for both gasoline engines in the 2022 U.S. full-size Transit — the naturally aspirated 3.5L Duratec and the 3.5L EcoBoost.
If both engines take 6 quarts, does the engine matter?+
Yes. Shared capacity does not mean shared oil identity — you still need to confirm which engine and market you have, because the chart is limited to the 2022 U.S./Canada full-size Transit and other variants differ.
Which oil grade does the 2022 Transit require?+
SAE 5W-30 meeting Ford WSS-M2C961-A1. For extremely cold climates, at -22°F (-30°C) or below, Ford identifies SAE 0W-30 meeting WSS-M2C963-A1.
How much oil moves the dipstick from minimum to nominal?+
About 1.0 US qt (0.9 L). That is why you should add less than six quarts after a filter change, run the engine, inspect for leaks, wait for drain-back on level ground and approach the full mark gradually — Ford warns against filling above maximum.
Does this cover a Transit Connect or a diesel Transit?+
No. Transit Connect, E-Series, the European-market 2.0L EcoBlue and the 2.2L/3.2L diesels are all outside this chart, as is any other model year or a replacement oil pan.
