My friend just traded in his 2006 Focus because he believed it needed major engine work. He bought the car new and did 3K OCIs and had just under 100K. He is very mechanically inclined and knowledgeable about cars so I tend to believe he knows what he's talking about.
I was under the impression that these Duratechs were bulletproof.
Have any of the mechanics heard about problems with lifters on this motor?
PS: He still believes in 3K OCIs even though I've told him how much better today's oils are. I'm not sure if he used the spec'd 5w20 or 5w30.
