Hi, I’m wanting to buy a mustang next year, either an ecoboost or the 5L but I honestly don’t know which one to get. I was thinking of getting the ecoboost as it’s more affordable (fuel wise) and a lot more practical as I would be using it a few times a week. But, I’m just questioning whether this is the right decision as who doesn’t want the V8🥲

I’m also wondering, does the ecoboost still sound good? I’ve heard the GT and it sounded amazing! Thank you!

Im looking for a new car at the end of the year im looking at brand new cars only, i seen a few mustangs eco that range from 36-44k before taxes and fees some have the long screen and others have the separate two screens, im also looking only at premium trims. How is the car day to day? I been comparing it to multiple cars like a elantra N a civic si or a WRX i know this is purely automatic which is fine. Is that price range reasonable for an ecoboost? Is the perfomance much better than any of this cars? I come from a challenger v6 and it was fun for me but i sold it and been driving a civic ex 2019 and its nice and comfy but god its so boring. Thank you

I have a 2022 EcoBoost Premium Convertible. The flex pipe attached to the converter broke. I went to Ford. It was going to cost over 2k to replace. They told me the flex pipe and the converter are all one piece. Does anyone have any experience with this? Are there other options than replacing the whole system?

I have a 2015 mustang ecoboost with a cold air intake, borla cat back. That’s all aftermarket I’m looking to throw more aftermarket parts on the car not for performance but for reliability. Anything you guys recommend? Also. This is my first mustang and first eco. What are some things I should be changing at 120k miles ?

I own a 2026 mustang ecoboost and was wondering what’s the best intercooler I can get for my first mod, also do I need the full pipe kit or just the cooler? I’m new to the car modding so I’m unsure of what to buy. Thank you!

I’m thinking about buying an EcoBoost Mustang, and I feel like I’m in the minority because I don’t really care about having the fastest car. I’m not planning on racing it, taking it to the track, or doing any performance modifications. My plan is to leave it completely stock and just enjoy it as a fun daily driver. Reliability is much more important to me than squeezing out extra horsepower. As long as it has enough power to be enjoyable and is comfortable to drive, I’ll be happy. I also plan on staying on top of all the maintenance, including regular oil changes, transmission service, and following the recommended maintenance schedule.
With that in mind, how long can a stock EcoBoost Mustang realistically last if it’s properly maintained? Are there any common issues I should expect over the long term, and would you feel confident owning one well past 150,000 or even 200,000 miles?

I just bought a 2017 ecoboost mustang. I wasn’t aware this was a thing at the time but, I only have 1 key and it is not an Admin key.

Ford was going to charge $1000 for a new admin key. Instead, I plan on going to a locksmith who said they can create a new admin key. The programming fee is $60.

Where is a reliable place I can order a 5 button key phob that won’t break the bank? I found some for $30 and found some for $200. Im not sure whom to trust. The local store will charge $160 for a phob. Thanks.

What have you guys found the best spark plug for the 2024 mustang ecoboost?

-Thank you!

Hello!

Has anyone else had this issue?

At 46k miles my grill shutter assembly actuator/motor went out and my EVAP Canister Purge Valve as well. Is this normal for this model?
