The recommended oil for the 2012 Ford Mustang is SAE 5w-20 full synthetic for and You should replace the engine oil and filter every 5000 - 7500 to ensure Your engine is at its peak performance. The oil capacity will vary depending on which engine You have in the car the 3.7L v6 has a capacity of 6 us quarts and the 5.0 liter v8 useS8 quarts and 7.6 liters. Not changing the oil causes the oil to lose its viscosity and will not properly lubricate the internal parts of the engine such as the pistons and cylinders. The price for oil will range from $5 - $10 per quart depending on if its conventional or synthetic and the brand/quality of the oil.
