2008 Ford Focus Oil Capacity

The 2008 Ford Focus with the 2.0L LF-DE engine takes 4.5 qt of 5W-20 engine oil. This capacity and grade apply to the engine listed for this model year; the figures should not be assumed to apply to other Focus engines or years.

Use the capacity as the oil-fill reference, then check the level after filling and follow the owner’s manual for the proper checking procedure. Oil remaining in the engine can affect the amount needed, so do not treat the listed capacity as a substitute for checking the dipstick. If your engine or trim differs from the 2.0L LF-DE listed here, confirm the correct capacity and oil grade on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
