How many miles does your 1.6l have?

Doerr6D · Sep 30, 2023

Hello,

I have owned a 2007 Escape XLT for several years and just under 300,000 miles. This weekend the engine started knocking.

I am looking at a 2015 SE 1.6l WTH 117,000 miles that appears to be in good shape. I am curious if these newer models are capable of getting some decent longevity assuming all the maintenance is followed.

How many miles does everyone have on theirs?

I had a 13 with the 1.6. Lasted 154,000 before I started having some transmission issues and coolant leaks. All my coolant leaks were external including the water pump. I never had an issue with head gasket problems but the 1.6 is infamous for those problems. I would get a 2.0 liter 13-16 if you’re able too, they are more long term reliable from my understanding.

Try to find the 2.0 litres. It is way more cool.

I have a 2013 Ford Escape SE 1.6L with 205,000 original miles. The engine has never been rebuilt only the transmission.

I have a 2013 Escape 1.6 with 168,000 miles and it still runs perfectly. I have driven 1200 mile twice this year without a single problem. Best car I have ever owned. I love my baby.

Mine got a new engine, transmission, and transfer case at just shy of 97,000 miles. I only had it for 3,000 miles at that point so I know nothing of the history.

I have a 2013 1.6 L SE with 236k on the original transmission and engine. Also, the check engine light is not on.
