This information is supposedly directly from Ford. I got the info from my salesperson and parts manager at my dealership
who spoke to Ford. I believe them! According to Ford, they're no long shipping the 1.5L engines with the cover. And they were told that putting a cover on it could affect the warranty. Only the 2L will have engine covers. I'm guessing that either Ford is getting cheap, or there's possibly a heating problem.
That's possible, since the 1.5L has higher compression, a little higher RPM's and runs a little hotter that the 2L. I asked, what about those sold earlier this year that came with the cover. He said that for didn't give him an answer.
