Ford engines have always been really picky about the oil.

Also about the type of oil? Last time I put reasonably cheap one in and not the recommended one. I took the cheaper one that they said you can also fill the car with if needed. But I completely did a refresh with that oil.

Especially some older Zetecs and CVH's had valve lifter trouble with incorrect oil, From my time working at a garage I've noticed that Ford Genuine and Valvoline worked best on those. I haven't had much experience with newer Fords.

I'm pretty sure the newer mondeos, mk4_onwards, use Peugeot engines now, well the diesels are Peugeot.
