Oil life sensor accuracy

Recommended Posts

On the fordpass app it gives access to oil life. Wondering how accurate it is?
My car got serviced today and oil life was at 88%, after service its now 100%
Was a year since oil changed so thought 88 seemed quite high, had done about 10k miles.

There is no oil quality sensor. 

The oil quality is calculated based on mileage, engine hours, percentages of warm/cold engine, engine load, etc. This is not a very accurate method to determine the oil quality.

OK thanks. Would still have thought after a year and 10k it would have calculated towards a lower percentage.
