LOTS of changes going on in the 2025 Ecoboost. Even some room under the hood with the relocation of the airbox.

The Mustang got the update 2 years ago and now it has come to most Eco Boost 4 cylinders. Ranger, Bronco, and Maverick.
I don't know if the Maverick gets it but the Bronco went from a plastic valve cover to an aluminum one on the 2025.
Edit: The Maverick gets the aluminum valve cover too!
The oil filter maybe different too.

Tim was saying the HP numbers stay the same and the EPA numbers are already out so apparently no stated changes to those numbers either. I would question that if there is a GPF. It does look like the air intake is a straight shot now.

I think it would be easier if we refer to the new engine as MPC 2.0 ECO BOOST. 2025 model year Maverick start. Previous Mavericks do not have this engine. Current issues, comments and you tubes do not apply to the MPC engine. It's unfortunate Ford has not really discussed this new engine. My dealer knew nothing about it. I learned after purchase of this fact. For some it may influence their decision to buy with a new engine design. I would have bought the LOBO anyway because I really liked the look, performance and price (402A) with employee pricing.

All good upgrades but Iāve never heard of anyone having any problems with the 2024 engine. I like the new engine bay look.
Now I know what Iāll be driving in about six years.

Seems weird the engineers went thru all the trouble and time to make all these changes and no difference in hp or mileage.

They are working around the new engineering challenges of the GPF. There are going to be some significant engineering hurdles it appears. That is a LOT of changes for something that they are trying to imply is a nothing burger.

I just rolled over 90k miles on my ā22. Ever since 55000 we started noticing that transmission fluid was being released from the valve. It was enough that the dealer caught it and suggested a transmission check before the warranty was over. They determined nothing was wrong but the vehicle just over heated. It has now happened 2 more times and each time I brought it back to the dealer. This last time they said they believed it was a design flaw and got the regional engineer involved. They came back saying it shouldnāt do this but didnāt have a fix. Just told me to check my trans fluid after long trips or at each oil change. It had lost a half a quart from the spillage. The shop said that they see it at varying degrees with these trucks. I āwonderā if this may be a contributing factor to some of these design changes.
** I should note that we have never had any check engine lights, thrown any codes, and the dealer said they donāt believe we pushed the car too hard (which we donāt)

I didn't hear them say anything about transmission changes, but it wouldn't surprise me if there aren't revisions to address this. Very strange problem.
