What Oil Does a 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS Take?

The 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS 2.0L turbo requires specific oil types to protect its turbocharged engine in all climates. Lincoln recommends:

• 5W-30: For temperatures above -29°C (-20°F). Best for most climates and daily driving.
• 0W-30: For extremely cold starts or consistently frigid environments. Flows quickly at low temperatures to prevent startup wear.

Both options must be high-quality full synthetic oils meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C961-A1. These viscosity grades maintain optimal lubrication for the turbo, prevent sludge buildup, and help your engine run efficiently under all conditions. Always confirm you’re using the correct grade for your typical driving temperatures.

2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS Oil Capacity

When performing an oil change, the 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS 2.0L engine holds 6.1 quarts (5.8 liters) of engine oil, including the filter change.

After adding new oil, always check the dipstick to ensure the oil level is between the “MIN” and “MAX” lines. Overfilling can cause foaming, loss of lubrication, and potential engine damage—so add oil gradually, then recheck the level.

How Often Should You Change the Oil on a 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS?

The recommended oil change interval for the 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS is every 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first, when using full synthetic oil (as required by the manufacturer). Lincoln does not recommend conventional oil for this engine, but if used in older situations, shorten intervals to every 5,000 miles/6 months.

Change your oil sooner if you experience severe driving conditions such as frequent short trips, heavy idling, towing, or extended high-speed driving. Signs you need an early change include increased engine noise, oil warning lights, or dirty oil on the dipstick.

Oil Filter for the 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS

The oil filter plays a critical role in protecting your engine by trapping harmful contaminants before they circulate back into the engine. Using a high-quality filter ensures your oil stays cleaner for longer and your engine remains protected between changes.

For the 2025 Lincoln NAUTILUS 2.0L, Costa Oil installs the COF1403 oil filter, designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications for fit, filtration efficiency, and durability. Unlike generic filters, OEM-spec and Costa filters ensure optimal oil flow and long service life—even under turbocharged pressures.
