However when i bought this to Ford Australias attention it was dismissed stating they cant comment on other vehicles only mine. Yes im getting an RAA inspection report. Getting very long in the tooth now and i cant be without my car for too much longer so i will dump a used engine in but still fight it. The 2.0 ecoboost engine in the LW2 has been redesigned lasting only 4yrs in production. So all new 2.0 ecoboost engines are different to the point very few parts be interchangeable.
Any updates on this???
