What’s the best oil type for a 2013 Ford Ranger 3.2L diesel? I want to make sure I’m using the right stuff to keep my engine running smoothly. I’ve heard different opinions, so I’m hoping for some real-world advice from fellow Ranger owners.

For your 2013 Ford Ranger with the 3.2L diesel, I’d recommend going with a good quality 5W-30 full synthetic oil. That’s what I’ve been using in mine, and it’s been running smoothly without any issues. Ford recommends 5W-30, and sticking with a full synthetic will give you better protection, especially if you’re towing or driving in extreme temperatures. I know some people suggest other types, but 5W-30 full synthetic is the way to go if you want to keep your engine in top shape. It’s worth spending a bit more on the oil to avoid headaches down the road.
