Default Mobil 1

Hey guys,

Before i traded in my old 00 gt for my new 06 gt, i had got some mobil 1 and motorcraft filter for my car. My car now has 4k miles on it and i was thinking since i had time today to change out the oil, i was wnodering if it was good timing to put in the mobil 1. Its 5w-30 and also, does the new mustang still use the old FL-820S fitler?

That's the filter.
I changed to Mobil 1 at 650 miles. I figure if it's good enough for Porsche and Vipers, Vetts etc. new out of the factory it was fine for me..

Did you use the 5w-20 or 30? I wnt and found my manual but it says use 20 and not 30. 30 is for the V-6

Not to get off the subject but has anyone heard of the AMS oil that you can get that doesn't have to be changed for 15,000 miles. Will this void our warranty? I know they have to prove it bit but is it worth a try?
