Default Re: Buying: MC Mondeo Ecoboost Auto, any known problems?

From memory Ford revised the gearbox oil change interval to 60,000km or thereabouts. In which case make sure that has been done or use it as a bargaining tool.

We had an EcoBoost Titanium and had no problems with it. The main thing, as I'm sure you are aware having had a Focus, is that they need to be driven slightly different to regular auto's and CVT's. They don't respond well to heavy, sudden throttle applications from stand still and generally resent on-off-on type throttle usually associated with stop start city driving.
