But we can predict problems and also gather opinions from car mechanics that have already dealt with some of these engines. By the way, they all say that the engine is surprisingly good and has the potential to last longer than other 3-cylinder turbocharged engines like the Ford's 1.0 EcoBoost, for example.
Is this engine reliable? As long as it never suffers any coolant leaks. But failure of the degas pipe that carries steam from the water cooled turbo to the expansion tank can cause a disaster. Be very careful indeed buying a used Ford with this engine from a dubious source. Avoid buying at auction.

Answered by Honest John. The 1.25 is an old, basic, non turbo 4-cylinder engine, so is less efficient and less powerful then the three-cylinder 1.0 EcoBoost and less fun to drive. The EcoBoost had some turbo problems but they all seem to be resolved now. Small Fords also had a lot of clutch problems due to a bad batch of clutch slave cylinders

Ford have used the Ecoboost moniker on a variety of engines that aren't related to each other. The 1.6 is the old Yamaha designed Sigma engine. It was from the 13/14 years of the ecoboosts. A couple of dodgy coolant pipes buggered the reputation. OPjL0. 189 184 278 294 259 122 211 13 300
