| ![]() I wonder why my Ford guys short-changed me?? ![]() Thanks - I'll look at 43ah when I change this one. Just saw on Battery Bhai an offer for a 55ah Amaron for the Ecosport - I wonder if there is any particular advantage buying this one over a 43ah. |

| ![]() I own a 2015 Ford ecosport automatic. You can peacefully go for it. There has not been any issues in my car till now. The only niggle is couple of times in the past 3 years, after starting the car, the accelerator does not work, some strange issue in DCT gearbox, but after restarting, it is perfectly fine. I am yet to complain this to the Ford ASS. Given an option, I would still go for this DCT gearbox since it is fun to drive and it comes with lot of active safety features like ESP, HLA, Traction control, and comes with 6 airbags.

| ![]() Our Ecosport Titanium + diesel turned 2 years old today, she was bought on 12.09.16. The current odometer reading is 41k km & so far she has turned out to be very reliable. Hopefully in the long run, she will turn out to be more reliable than our erstwhile Punto, Punto had constant niggling problems. Having said that, 2 years has passed since we sold the Punto, I still can't stop thinking about her, she was a brilliant little car. 40k km service I got the 40k km service done last month with the odometer reading 39762km. This was a normal oil change service along with a brake oil change, my SA told me that brake oil needs to be changed every 40k km or 2 years. I dropped the car early in the morning & whole service (including washing) was completed by 3:00 pm. I had a complain of squeaky brakes, it occurs when I feather the brake pedal. The problem seems to have strangely disappeared after the brake oil change, maybe they also cleaned the brake pads. The final bill was Rs. 5203, very reasonable if you ask me. Even after 40k km, the car feels tight to drive. The interior is still rattle free, even the suspension seems to be holding well. The Goodyear Assurance tires still have good amount of thread left, I think they will last around the 60k km mark. The engine performance is also good as ever, though I think the amount of black smoke under hard acceleration has increased. I am thinking of getting the EGR cleaned at the 50k km service, what would you guys suggest? Tax Invoice of the 40k km service: ![]() This is how she looked before the service (almost got stuck ![]() ![]() Shining like new after washing: ![]() ![]() Last edited by chiranjitp : 12th September 2018 at 23:21. |

| ![]() Hi Guys, How good is the stock Good Year Assurance tyres in the long run? Is it required to swap them with other brands like Yokohama or Michelin on a new car? Considering that the car will be used primarily within the city with occasional highway trips, will it really need a swap? I wouldn't have asked this question if it was MRF or JK tyres as I believe they are not as good as the GY tyres. Also, anyone has any idea if Ford is going to update the EcoSport's engine to match the 215nm (from current 205nm) torque figures of the Figo/Aspire twins any sooner? |

| ![]() My 2014 Ecosport Titanium option diesel came with Goodyear, the odo now stands at 61100 Km with these tyres and I expect 10000 Km more out of them. City:Highway use ratio was 55:45 respectively and they did the job quite well for me as I do not drive aggressively. I was lucky to have only 3 punctures till date. Hope this helps.

I guess it depends on the stock available, 36AH might have been from the Figo. Last edited by sansvk : 19th September 2018 at 22:54. | |
