Second post for me. (First was a reply ) 2020 2.0 Eco. I finally understand the block/coolant issue that has plagued the ecoboost for some time. Huge thanx to Fordtechmakuloco! As he points out so well, the block was improved by dropping the coolant "slit" between cylinders and going to a port/tube. That was "during" the 2020 model year. Sooooo...I have just updated from my 2012 3.7 workhorse (really miss it )to a 2020 2.0 Eco. How do I find out if I have the flawed or fixed block? VIN tells me it is an Oakville build production sequence A51877 Thanx Much for any good news, or at least to be prepared for bad news... Dave Wilson

Did you have AC or defroster on? (The default startup climate settings used to put the defroster on at start. And the defroster is meant to act as a dehumidifier to "dry" condensation on the inside of the windshield as well as melt ice on the outside.) The defroster controls won't show you the AC is on. And the compressor cycles on and off quite often. At idle, that's usually enough of a load to make the engine labour a bit until the throttle catches up to the load.

First time posting here. User name due to having a 2012 and 2020 Miss my 6 banger.😟 Putting a trailer light converter in. Got the wiring from the taillights down to below. Trick: After taking out the one screw, pull the taillight assy. off by a piece of duct tape placed horizontally on the lens with a piece hanging out the back to grip. Simple! Looking to power it from the rear lighter instead of running a line all the way to the engine. Only LED lights so no big draw. I assume I won't have power there if the car starts shutting down non-essential loads due to failing battery. That's OK. Easy to get the rubber hatch seal off. How to get the rear inside panel off is the question. Thanx in advance. Dave
