Hi Dave,
I have a 3 year old plus 4 with a Duratec engine like yours (you'd better check that, it could be a GDI). I have just purchased all the bits and oils required for a full service. I have only had the car 6 months and this will be the fourth time it has been serviced. It has 7400 miles on it, I am servicing it because I like to know that everything has been done, as a baseline.
I would suggest you service it every year unless you do more than 10000 miles a year, that's oil and filter. The gearbox and axle have a longer service interval but I do those at the same time, its only the cost of the oil.
Here is a list of what I purchased hope it helps.
Engine:
Castrol Magnatec C3 5w/40 fully synthetic
5.8 litres inc filter.
Oil Filter:
Fomoco
1751529
AA6E 6714 AA
P926D
Air Filter:
Fomoco
1216907
1S719601AB
Gearbox:
1.7 litres
Total 75w/90 9FE fully synthetic
Axle:
Castrol Syntrax L.S.D SAE 75W140 Synthetic Gear Oil
1.5 litres
The axle on my car is a LSD.
Prop shaft has 2 grease nipples, rear is easily accessible front difficult.
Front suspension has two grease nipples each side top and bottom.
