🚨 What to check before buying
Overall risk score: 7/10

- Coolant intrusion (2013-2014): Very early 2.0 EcoBoost had coolant intrusion into cylinders issue. Ford issued TSB. Later production fixed. Check VIN date.
- Carbon buildup on intake valves: Direct injection causes carbon buildup. Walnut blasting every 80-100k km recommended for optimal performance.
- Car is 14 years old — expect age-related wear: rubber seals, bushings, water pump, AC compressor
- Higher mileage (192,946 km) — check for timing system condition, turbo health, and suspension wear
Additional notes
- Diesel car from before 2018 with very low mileage suggests city-only use — DPF is likely clogged or has been removed (illegal). Check DPF status and EGR condition.
