Parts for your 2016 Ford Everest-Oil seals

2016 Ford Everest oil seals – what they do and when to sort them

Oil seals are absolutely used on the 2016 Ford Everest. Ford’s Workshop Manual (WSM) for the PX-based Everest/Ranger platform and the Ford Electronic Parts Catalogue list multiple seals across the vehicle: front and rear crankshaft seals (WSM 303-01), camshaft seals (303-01), automatic transmission and transfer case input/output seals (307-01/307-07), front and rear differential pinion and axle shaft seals (308-03/308-07). That’s the lot that keeps engine oil, ATF and gear oil where they’re meant to be.

On this Everest (2.2L or 3.2L Duratorq TDCi with six-speed auto), oil seals do the unglamorous but vital job of holding lubricant in while keeping dust, water and grit out. Typically, they’re radial-lip seals made from NBR or PTFE, spring-loaded to hug the rotating shaft. Good seals mean quiet bearings, happy gears and no mess on the driveway.

There’s no fixed service interval for oil seals
