I just bought one and it purrs like a kitten, the "damage" can be done to anything.I used a Motorcraft 'paper filter' and Motorcraft Full SYN and had a start rattle on my non-phaser, Lincoln INTECH 32V. I switched to Mobil 1 oil and tried Mobil 1, Fram ultra synthetic and Napa platinum filters and had no issues. The owners manual on the 2013 calls for XO-5w20-QFS(syn blend) or XO-5w20 -QFS(full syn), not conventional. Interesting, it shows XO-5w20 -QFS only for Canadian vehicles. Never buy a used 3V. The damage may already be done.
