However since a driver knows their car more intimately, it would probably be better to visit a service center and let them check if the ECU is giving any error codes. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I have to change the engine oil on my Ecoboost and I prefer getting it done at a friend's garage. Issue is that, I'm unable to get 5W30 or 5W20 (as specified in the manual) outside and am told that only Ford can provide this oil but I do not want to go to Ford. Castrol 5W40 is available. Can this be used in the Ecoboost engine? Will it cause any adverse effects? Also can the experts help me out with any distributor for brembo brake discs/pads in Bombay as the brembo website doesn't show any which I find hard to digest. Thank You. Cheers, Raj |

| ![]() Friends, I am in the used car market looking for 2013-2016 EcoSport diesel. (in Tamilnadu) From which year did EcoSport come with 6 airbags, TCS, ESC (I am looking to own one with these). What variants have the above features? Apart from Titanium plus, does Titanium (O) have these features? Was there Titanium plus right from 2013 itself? What are the known issues in EcoSport of 2013-16? |

2013-206 no major issues in Ecosport. There was an airbag wiring recall which they replaced the airbag wiring harness. Apart from that a few issues are audio system BT sometimes doesn't connect, climate control sensor makes a whine and needs replacement, the boot alignment causes the boot to rattle, headlights suck, pickup in 2013-2016 is not as good as post 2016 which got 100BHP vs 90BHP at launch. | |

Then what was the difference between Titanium plus and Titanium (O) variants? I am keen on TCS, ESC too. Is there anyone who replaced the OE unit with buttons to aftermarket touch screen information system (as warranty would have ended now)? P.S: I trust Ford and Volkswagen for their build quality. Ruled out VW as Polo/Vento doesn't come with 6 airbags, TCS, ESC. I don't have the same build quality trust on new Aspire, Freestyle (3 stars with unstable structure) that I have on EcoSport. But I cannot afford a new EcoSport. Hence buying a used EcoSport for the price of a new Freestyle/Aspire. | |

The TCS and ESC is only available on the Automatic not on the diesel. It's difficult to change the infotainment system as the car features are controlled from the system. The climate control display is the same screen, service indicator, check engine light and any other malfunction comes on that screen. It's not just audio. | |

| ![]() Does anyone have any idea how much the tailgate lock cost ? My cars tailgate is not locking and I think the actuator mechanism has gone bad. Just wanted to get an idea of the price and if it’s something an outside garage be able to fix or do I have to go to the official service centre. |

It cost me 7,231/- (incl. GST) for replacement done in Nov'18. The SA saying it's rare for that lock to fail. So it looks like it is not that rare after all. | |
