Sneak peek at a prototype engine cover for the 2.0L (Badlands, etc.) and for the 1.5L Models

I'd go with only a plastic/vinyl cover.

Well folks if you have an oil separator like I do, the engine cover cannot be installed as you can see from my pics that it’s in the way. So now I’m undecided as to what to do, sell the engine cover or take off the oil separator. I’m bummed.

Does the oil separator fill up any? If it does I would keep it. If not remove it and keep the cover.

Why? Worried about trapping heat? This one sits up off the engine a couple inches and has vents. The cover was only slightly warm after a good drive. I love it!

I like the oem material and not a fan of an aftermarket JC Whitney look but that's me but I may change my mind.

? @ the JC Whitney… I purchased the Lincoln one. Perfect fit and I don’t mind the Lincoln badge on it (it can be easily removed). Same family. We had VW/Audi’s for generations and when opening the hood on either you’ll see both logos on the various parts and trim prices throughout.

Well I got about a tablespoon of oil in 5000, miles
