I've changed the oil in my SE V6 AWD twice now. Two things: The factory oil filter was on very tightly. I work in a non-Ford dealership. I had to use one of the tech's three-pointed "claw" to dig into the filter to turn it. Also, the engine pipe gets hot very quickly and is located near the oil filter. I burned my arm in trying to turn the filter. Other than that - it's a breeze! Also, the Motorcraft oil filter can be purchased inexpensively at an Auto Zone type of store. John
