I love how you gave an overview and showed pictures to help me understand what I will be looking at in my new truck when it comes in. There are no other videos out that explain what is going on under the hood, except for just “numbers”. Thank you
You will love the truck! Be sure run good *full synthetic engine oil* & Motorcraft filters every 5mis max. Comes from factory w/semi-synthetic engine oil. Adequate but not best for the high tech TGDI.
Okay, I am pretty convinced with this video. The engine looks simple and straight forward compared to most modern cars. The truck engine components seems to be easily accessible and replaceable for an owner to do.
It's a very high tech TGDI engine design ..though thoroughly proven in its 2nd Gen. Run good "full synthetic engine oil" w/ Motorcraft filters.. changed every 5k mis MAX (turbos need clean oil) an you be good!
Just watched this video again. Excellent explanation of the airflow from the air filter to the turbo to the intercooler and eventually into the engine! 😃👍
They are excellent high tech engines. Just run a good brand full synthetic engine oil & Motorcraft filters every 5k mis MAX. You be fine. Owned Gen1 - 2.0L in MKZ & Gen2 - 2.0L in my '22 Edge AWD.
@@Davido50 I ran Mobil 1 and serviced mine well including transmission services and srtill ran into serious engine issues before 80k miles. I drive Toyota now and never looking back!
Auto mechanics have done a phenomenal job scamming people about “carbon buildup” on turbos. Solid 2.0 liter engine with a solid and tested 8 speed auto. Get the FWD version if you want less things to break. And don’t drag strip race this thing
Yep. I finally got my 2022 back in October. It’s now March and I only have 1500 miles on it. I intend to baby this engine as much as possible, no burnouts or stress testing the power plant.
Thanks for the video. Can’t wait for my very first truck!!! Ford is gonna hit a home run with this one. I like the Furball too, tho i’m too smooth for that LOL.
Excellent small trucks. We have a '22 Maverick XLT 2.0L FX4 4wd & '22 Ford Edge AWD 2.0L TGDI. The Gen2 - 2.0L TGDI is proven , powerful & efficient. Very smooth & quiet as well. Run a good full synthetic engine oil @ 1st service & keep it on 5k mi OCI max. I wouldn't try 10k mi oil changes on ANY turbo DI engine. Not worth saving few bucks on oil. Engines are expensive, oil is cheap.
Anyone else have one of these leaking antifreeze? Mine is a week old with 183 miles and has antifreeze pouring out of the middle behind the radiator. Can't see exactly where because it is tightly packed in there and I don't have a lift to get a better view. Waiting for the dealer to get back to me as it was towed in yesterday. I am already strongly regretting this purchase after all the problems with the older ecoboost engines I saw, I thought by now they were all fixed.
Being this is a 2nd generation, does anybody know the reliability or even projected reliability of this engine? I wish ford did dual port injection so I wouldn't have to worry about carbon build up
I think thats just the nature of the beast with the way manufactures are designing these cars , as long as people keep buying engines that have known issues , ( carbon build up) ( exhaust manifold cracking ) (high pressure, low pressure fuel pump failures ) then they will keep building them , I would like to see these problems addressed but according to Ford it’s the owners responsibility to maintain the car properly and not drive the snoot out of it , I believe if you do regular oil changes at 5k on the turbo cars and run a good fuel additive like Lucas injector cleaner and remember it’s not a 1/4 mile race car you will most likely have a good experience with this engine , one other thing you can do is if you have been pushing it hard or towing something when it’s time to park let it run at idle for at least 10 minutes to allow the oil temp to lower before shutting it down ,I did this on my Ford 7.3 and the turbo lasted for ever
@Craig Williams these newer turbo engines don't need to be idled after driven cause they have a system that circulates coolant/oil so the turbo can cool down and not heat soak. I was talking to a ford tech that mentioned it to me awhile ago.
Awesome video! I got a screenshot of the turbo with what looks like a heat shield to protect the intake air side. I was going to look into getting heat wrap but it looks like the shield will protect the waste gate actuator. I've been looking up this 2.0 Ecoboost and that's one of the main failures the valve itself and the actuator probably cuz if heat soak and heat cycles.
2.0 Ecoboost exhaust manifold is integrated into the head. So basically it's all one piece. The exhaust manifold has a known problem it cracks. Ford is getting had a class action lawsuit against them for it. The other problem is that it is only direct injection and not port injection and direct injection. Other manufactures have both. So carbon will build up on the valves and you have misfires. Good luck .
He forgot to mention if the turbo is water cooled, and if it’s not water cooled, should you use 5w40 diesel oil full synthetic to deal with the immense temperatures the bearing suffer with and should you let it cool for at least a full minute before shutting down or two minutes if you have that much time to spare
Wished the air intake doesn't block the 4th (right most) spark plug coil pack, which appears to require multiple components/tube to be remove to replace.
High pressure fuel line and regulator over the top. Logic argues the coil pack should be able to snake out from underneath without having to remove all of that. Luckily, 100k mile service interval on spark plugs.
Beginning around mid-2019, Ford claimed to stop using the open-deck design between the cylinders and now uses a block design where the slits are the size of a pinhole directed through the cooling jacket. Rather than running coolant through an unnecessarily-wide opening, the coolant travels to a much smaller spot on the cylinder head, significantly reducing the risk of coolant penetrating the head gasket and leaking into the combustion chamber. When leaking does occur, it usually is in the middle of the engine between cylinders 2 and 3 but could affect cylinders 1 and 2 as well. There are loads of 2.0 motors with over 150k miles and are the old design, so I guess it's a roll of the dice with them. Just don't abuse them, add full synthetic every 6k miles and cross your fingers it's all good.
Now I see. I bet the turbo fails. Second that's got to be a expensive master cylinder ABS combo when that thing fails. What not led all around for lights. Great a sealed transmission, so if it leaks and level goes low it will just slip till it burns out with no way of telling.
Why would you make braking so complicated with all those electronics? It looks like a possible failure point, same as the electronic steering in the Ranger getting damaged from water (being an all-terrain vehicle smh)
Brake systems are becoming electronically controlled because of automatic safety features like automatic emergency braking which are almost standard equipment across the automotive market. Electric power steering is also standard fare because of pollution and smog issues around belt driven, fluid powered steering. Water damage to electric steering racks really isn't a thing anyway.
Not very pretty engine compartment. Who cares! Just give me an engine compartment that's easy to service where everything is accessible. Appears this one might just fit that requirement.
Oh Ron, just because you drive your lawn tractor back and forth to the corner store to get more alcohol, doesn’t make your (powered by beer gut) lawn mower a “powerful vehicle”.

I wouldn't think that way, because it is turbocharged. I'd recommend you check fordtechmakuloco youtube channel
Except for the throttle body

Much more serviceable than my 2017 Escape. Thanks for the shots!

Thanks for this video! I do my own maintenance whenever possible so it's nice to get an idea where things are and how serviceable the car might be.

Thanks for the concise lQQk at my new trucklett . . . great vid !
Don't care if it is "pretty". Chrome won't get you home! Its well laid out and serviceable. That is what matters. Thanks for a great presentation!
Thank you very Much! Great look at the EcoBoost Engine. Good to know
I wonder if they updated the transfer case design. The escape exhaust system would boil the gear oil in the awd.
Well done. Thanks again! Can't wait for my Lariat with all the fixin's!
Have any changes been made to help with eliminating the intake carbon build up that these 2.0’s are notorious for?
There are plenty of chemicals you can use to de carbon your turbos also using higher octane fuel with less ethanol helps a metric sh*t ton
This truck now has the second generation 2.0 engine and has been improved by Ford.
this is the BEST REVIEW over there! THANK YOU
Will this 2.0 engine last a long time?
Thanks for this review. I was wondering if this engine required premium fuel and you answered my question.
Thank you, your video was exceptional, succinct and to the point. The engine layout seems reasonable. Thanks again:))

I hope a company makes a tuner for it, I'd love to see this with 300hp or more.
Seriously! Mountune should make a kit for it.
Theres a lot of aftermarket parts for this engine
This video is fantastic thank you
Is the water pump inside the engine like most ecoboost engines?
Thanks Great info you did a Great job
Great video.
May need to add a catch can to keep valve from carboning from the DI
I like seeing engine when I open my hood... so to me that is pretty.
Where is the servicing for the transmission fluid.

You should be a spokes person for a car manufacturer. Well done
Is this a dual injection like the v6 turbos ?
Only direct injection on this engine.
Amazing video !!!!!
Should you use a higher octane gas if you are towing?
It's not against the law. The owner's manual does not ask for it.
Beautiful!
Thinking of buying a badlands bronco sport but weary of this engine????
Why? They have been in production for well over a decade and are well proven.
@Kaffe Stein I didn't I bought a new Honda CR-V 2022 model..Love it so far already 3k miles on it.
No transmission dipstick or fill cap?
It is a sealed unit without dipstick
I thought it comes with a 10 speed trans?

My 2017 ford edge with the 2.0 eco boost engine died with only 67K miles And #Ford would not do any thing to help me
Composite intake manifold is when I shut this off.
Find a new vehicle without one.
I wanna get Ford Edge 2.0 L ecoboost but I watched a video for Scotty said it’s gonna get problems bc the engine is smaller than the body 🤷🏻♂️
Most engines are smaller than the body, it's how they fit inside.
@@TDTVGarage but if it was 3L with turbo maybe better?
I wouldn't have the hybrid if you give it to me I keep one until the wheels fall off and them batteries are going to be trouble down the road
Hmm...no Port Injection?
Just direct injection? Does it not have port injection as well? Won’t this have the typical carbon buildup problems. ?
These have only direct injection
A lot of these engines are experiencing head gasket problems. Open deck design is not good with turbocharging,
Beginning around mid-2019, Ford claimed to stop using the open-deck design between the cylinders and now uses a block design where the slits are the size of a pinhole directed through the cooling jacket.

"designed for purpose. isn't designed for looks. obviously."
So... It's perfect.

Cleveland engine builds the 2.3 L. I think it's Lima engine that builds the 2.0 L.
Lima only builds V6 engines: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lima_Engine
I work at at Cleveland engine. We build the 2.3 for the big bronco. No 2.0. I'm not sure where the 2.0 is built.
This looks a lot like the focus ST engine.
Because it is ;)
2L is a lawn mower engine ,ruins a beautiful new truck.
Don't know of any mowers with 250 horsepower!

Why is Ford making this mess?! So they can charge more for it? Linear motors take up next to no space, and are more efficient! Get with it Ford!
Maybe they should be making flying cars too.
Jesus what a mess
