I have a 2016 ford fusion se 1.5 liter ecoboost and I having the same problems slow to accelerate, check engine light on and when I drive it after a little while the wrench comes on the dash and then it really starts to run bad to point I would have to pull over once it loses speed and let it sit awhile before I can pull off again. The codes keep saying shift solenoid I changed that then I ended up changing the whole valve body still doing the same and I'm also getting oil under my throttle body. Help me please?

Biught a 17 escape in dec from a dealership fee days sfter getting it blowing smoke drinking oil crazy . Sent it to local ford dealership they said timing snd turbo. Dealership where i bought it. Took it to there shop replsced the turbo saif it was good . Now it sluggish no power on hiway i set cruise ti 110 km an hour and itll surge frim 2000 to 3000 rpm. I drive 140 kms home oil pressure lighy starts flashing check oil and stick is bone dry. Before it went to ford cruise kickrd off wouldn't go fastrr then 20 km a hour. Smoking from motor dip stick hole lol then when i limoed home it wouldn't start again but before turbo was replaced there was no loss of power or surging. I dont get how i used sll the oil driving 138 kms from the shop. Any advice on what im dealing with. I want the dealer to change me into something else im rebuilding credit from a divirce and there claiming switching me could lose my approval. Keep in mind im oaying 42 grand on a 18000 suv which eould be worth it ti rebuild my credit if days into owning it it didnt beeak down lol

Red lining the rpm on the power test was not smart. The head gasket is too thin between the cylinders. Driving the engine hard at high rpms will increase the stress and pressure eventually will blow a hole through that thin gasket. I have a 2017 escape 2.0L ecoboost with 200,000 miles runs like new. I never rev past 3000 rpm. Oil change every 5000 miles.

1 More question sir because it's obvious you are a Ford Tech and know what's going on. I have a 2019 Explorer Sport that we love. I installed a JLT oil separator on it when it was new because of those issues. The one thing I would like to know about it, and youtube has me concerned, is should I change the PTU oil? I have 23k on it right now. It's our trip vehicle and I want to keep it good as new if I can. Do you think that the PTU's need an oil change or do you think it is over magnified by just a few failures? Or is it a "REAL" problem that I should be concerned about and definitely change that oil? Thank you in advance sir.

Going 50mph behind a logging truck on a 2 lane road, which happens quite often to me in Georgia. Is there a way to get just a 30 second burst out of these engines? To get quickly around, which is the safest way, to say overtake a tractor trailer or whatever?

They throw codes for any vacuum issues and that larger motor goes through fuel and could use better injectors and downpipe cat converters. That downpipe I had to replace twice which was the most money I spent on that car, final straw was when I was told I had to replace the fuel injectors to get the codes off and I didn't want to spend the money on a car with 200k, so I got this Escape and now my issue is the 1.5 feeling super slow.
