    I have a 2023 1.5 which is the 3cyl engine. At 800 miles the coolant passages got blocked with metal shavings coming from engine break in... I did notice a difference in power switching the engine to a 93 octane over the 87. Hopefully with a new cylinder head I will be good for many miles to come.

    I have a 2018 ford escape 1.5L with oil mixing in cooling system. What's your take on that?

    Were these issues addressed on new models? Do 2020 models still have those issues?
