Quick answer: the Ford 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel takes 13.0 qt (12.3 L) of oil with a filter change in 2017–2022 Super Duty trucks and 15.0 qt (14.2 L) in 2023–2025 trucks. Ford recommends Motorcraft SAE 10W-30 Super Duty Diesel Motor Oil meeting WSS-M2C171-F1.
| Super Duty model years | Oil capacity (with filter) | Recommended oil | Ford specification |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017–2022 | 13.0 qt (12.3 L) | SAE 10W-30 diesel (15W-40, 5W-40, 0W-40 approved) | WSS-M2C171-F1 |
| 2023–2025 (standard and High Output) | 15.0 qt (14.2 L) | SAE 10W-30 diesel | WSS-M2C171-F1 |
Check your model year. The 2023 redesign raised the oil capacity by 2 quarts. Buying 13 quarts for a 2023+ truck leaves it 2 quarts low.
