I did a search and it's a question that has probably been asked many times before, but what should we be running our cars with? Manual states Mobil 5w 30 iirc?

The oil filler cap says 5w20 so that is what should go in it. Ford are renowned for going to great lengths to save a cent in vehicle production so if they went to the expense of having that printed the must have thought it important.
The oil filters must fit something else as my local motor factor had them on the shelf.

Filter same as Ford Mondeo 3.0 V6
I use Petronas Sytium 7000
I find the Opie Oils site really helpful. Just tap in your registration no. and the site will bring up a range of oils suitable for each model. You can combine the oil with the correct filter in what they describe as a service pack which should automatically include the correct volume of oil for the engine. They will often pop up on the site offering discounts if you are lucky. From the selection of oils they recommended I choose Millers Nano-Drive 5w-40 for No146's guzzle this year and ordered the filter at the same time. Easy!
