I have seen rumors, hints, that the 2015 has fixes for both the CAC condensation problem and the DFI intake valve carbon build-up problem.
The 2015, like the Lexus GS has done for years, uses SFI for low HP cruise, which of course also serves to "wash" the back side of the intake valves.
DFI is reserved for boost mode.
The CAC now has a vane/shutter system that automatically closes and blocks cooling airflow through the CAC during "off-boost" driving.
The question becomes, will prior purchase Ecoboost owners be offered a retrofit kit??
One could see that retrofitting the vane/shutter system to older F150 Ecoboost trucks might be entire possible, POC!
SFI....?? NOT!
But, wouldn't a simple single throttle injector also solve the problem, PLUS keep the entire throttle body clear of EGR deposits?
Ford... Listening!
