THE Air and Oil Filter Thread
The 2008 FEH oil filter is same as previous. I did my 1st oil/filter change @ 800 miles. Used Castrol 5W-20 semi-synthetic (same as original) on 1st change (with FRAM filter from Autozone). Will do second change at 3000 miles, then probably every 5K, and will switch to full synthetic. I keep cars a LONG time, and oil is really cheap when you do the labor yourself.
The AC Delco CF108 part listed for the '07-'08 cabin filter is not correct!!!
The CF108 is a 11"x7" rectangle and not the triangle-ish one shown.
Can someone confirm that the image for the '07-'08 filter is the FP-66?

The FP-66 has been confirmed both in this thread and other threads as the trapezoidal cabin filter for the 07 and 08's.
The little rear battery filter is sometimes hard to find.
NAPA on-line has the best price for their own version of the Motorcraft OEM FP51, aka FIL 4477. About 16 bucks apiece. Some places quote $25 and up for the OEM part. All that for something a little bit bigger than a Canadian cigarette pack.

Is there a pdf or the like with pictures and instructions for changing all these filters and the oil for dummies like me. I'm just a little scared of poping the hood and poking around with a sharp stick not really knowing what I'm doing.
I second a PDF. The dealer wants almost $80 to replace the engine air filter and since the part is only $30 I figure I may try it myself since they also suggested flushing the brake fluid for $140.
Just stopped at Walmart today for unrelated items. Took a glance through automotive to price Mobil 7500 oil (they didn't have it) Turned around to spot the Motorcraft filters at $3.48 each.
Anyone familiar with Motorcraft filters at Walmart? Are these decent quality or cheap copies?
They do include O-rings. I picked up 3.
