I just bought a HIGH Mileage 2.7 Ecoboost.

A couple months back I purchased this 2015 ford F150. It has the 2.7L ecoboost with 230,000 miles on it. As there becomes more high mileage ecoboost engines on the road I want to document there reliability.

[@gladegoodrich2297]

Did a lot of study on trucks before buying. Just bought a 2022 with the 2.7 and cant believe the power. First 100 mile round trip on eco mode was 26 mpg and not even broke in yet!

[@applefordguy76]

I have been a parts guy at a Ford dealer for over 20 years. I am currently in the market for a 2.7 truck as well. We have far less issues with the 2.7 than the 3.5. I test drove one for the first time the other day with 150k on it. And wow, techs have told me they are quick, but its extremely impressive for such a small motor! My bro had one, on the highway he would average 28 mpg, but he also drives like our dad lol... Its either a 5.0 or a 2.7 for me, but I would prefer the 2.7 for the mileage.

The 2.7, and the second Gen 3.5, is dual injected so it has the port injection that washes the back of the valves so it prevents carbon build up. Best of both worlds. Many Toyota engines do this as well. Great stuff look forward to future vids. Hope you can get her to 300k!

That’s a nice truck,still can’t believe you had to pay 19k to get a 230k mile 6-7 year old truck .I always look at the engine hours as well as miles if the cluster has both,and yours does….how many engine hours are on it? That’s a better indicator or what life is left than miles….at work where I’m a mechanic the fleet I maintain we typically get 13000-16000 engine hours out of our GM 6.0 gas engines before the body rots off the frames and we sell them. I have 13 in my fleet and never lost an engine or had a valve cover off, I change our oil w full synthetic Dexos oil every 3000 miles at which time the truck is usually under 10 percent oil life left on the dash.

Your in town mpg will go up in Sport mode. It doesn't make sense, but it does! I own a 2015 F150 XLT 4x4 with a 2.7. The oil pan is probably the only known issue with this engine. Since it is DI only, ('15-'17) a catch can is not a bad idea. But, with your mileage, not sure if the valves might already show heavy carbon build up. Definitely swap the plugs and all fluids if you don't have any previous maintenance records. I recently had to replace the rear pinion seal due to a minor leak. Not a big deal.

[@jessec5713]

Wait, did he just say $5,000 for a timing chain? No part of that engine would be anywhere close to $5,000. That’s essentially the cost of a rebuilt, if not dang close to a brand new engine cost.

The turbos do not lose near the power but they do lose cooling capacity so be careful on the upgrades not to oversaturate the engine with heat. Give her a rest!

[@paulhunter9613]

The turbos are liquid cooled..

[@xilbus]

Update please. How is the truck doing?

[@b0borden437]

How many miles are average on trucks? 300? more or less?

[@anythingvids22]

Bigger tired and reliability

[@JulianoGSF]

The issue with this 2.7 engine is the wet belt placed inside. Has anyone had issues with it?

[@paulhunter9613]

The five oh has a wet belt in it also

[@dwaynesurratt]

I have a 2018 2.7 ecoboost and it gets 22 mpg

[@mikecarmean1676]

Make an update video brother!!

[@joshuayoung1806]

I paid the same in 2022 for an '11 3.5. Now... I can't give it away for 8k at 199k miles.

[@jsol888]

I thought my 2.7 16 with 120k miles was a lot. Love the EB though

[@thegarch3293]

Any issues yet?

[@eliquegracia3343]

Thanks for the info I got a 2017 2.7 myself that I got with 80,000 miles I was afraid at the beginning and wanted to trade it for 5.0 but the more videos I see about common problems the better I feel. All vehicles are subject to issues. Once you know about them, you can address them and do the best to prevent. Thanks about the cats can’t I did not know that what helps with the carbon buildup and as far as the issues with the cams and those models they say if you Change the oil more frequently instead of relying on the computer to tell you. A. And as far as the oil pan, leak they have a metal one that I pretty much solve the leaking oil pan issue.

[@UBBERTANKER]

they have a revised oil pan with a actual rubber gasket that fixes the issue that recently came out

[@richardahrens8301]

What's a catch can . I just bought a 2016 Ecoboost 130;K thanks...

[@thegarch3293]

Still running ok?

[@dylananderson4421]

Do you still have this truck?

[@wymanmore3982]

18 mpg? I have a 2021 2.7L 4x4 (w/ K&N drop in filter and resonator delete) and I get 21 mpg running 33" AT tires. I drive like a lead foot a$$hole too. 🤔🤷‍♂

[@zemo2332]

Is turbo original?

[@danielhaskins519]

I don’t understand why it costs so much. $20k is a lot for a truck with miles like that.

[@andrewrussell360]

Not really

[@MrThebirddog]

I change the oil, 2018 2.7 F150, every 4000 miles. Oil filter the next change.

[@paulhunter9613]

I do the same mileage but replace the filter also. Why don’t you include the filter with the oil change?

[@thegarch3293]

Still running?

[@dagabbagool2600]

Ford's 4WD system must have a lot of lost efficiency as 2wd 2.7's easily do 25mpg on highway, with 3.5's not far behind.

[@paulhunter9613]

My 2.7, 2wd ‘18 supercrew, 3.55 gear got 24.2, 25.4, then 26mpg on a 1300 mi trip this yr. Hand calculated as the dash figure is off what the true mpg is

[@hzardiswastez]

Get the gasket on eBay for the pan.

[@jamesklinkhammer7539]

Lots of money 💰 for 230000 ecoboost truck

[@wutafungi]

If you hold it down below 65 , you should get around 22+mpg .... but it's boring...

[@frankiethefrog1752]

UPDATE???

[@hmdwn]

Nice review and thanks! Question... is the 2.7 a 'quiet' engine, and ticks or sewing machine noises or is it more/less dead quiet? (I really want quiet) Monday I test drive a new 2.7 and coming from a big old F250 XLT Lariat Super-cab 4x4 with a GREAT 7.3 Diesel it will be quite big difference. Catch-can on the 2.7 for sure... keep those valve backs clean!

[@josh3326]

I have a 2017 2.7 with 80K. It’s still quiet. No sewing machine noise. I put good gas, try ethanol free whenever I can and regular oil changes. Great running beast, so much power….and did I mention I tow 4500lbs too. Towing is great

[@mattbrown2701]

Update?

[@greiner7414]

Leaky Oil Pans - I saw they have a legitimate gasket available to replace the RTV silicone from the factory.

[@GusMahn]

Only for the second generation 2.7. Gen1 is still a silicone RTV gasket.

[@09roadraider40]

My 2.7 gets 23 mpg cty 30 mpg hiwy
