You are totally out of touch with reality Chris. You just don't understand...

Now that is funny.

Valvetrain cover. ;-)

I don’t know Frank, the top of the engine? I can tell you David, it isn’t a throw away plastic engine cover. It is, James, the actual valve cover….
If that was missing, it would actually be with getting upset about.

Cheers William!

I gotta admit that bmw looked pretty damned space age, like it was iron man’s chest underneath or something…..

Shhhhh ?

•in fairness•, the "Engine Cover" for the 2.0l engine at least is thick closed-cell foam, suggesting sound-dampening goals as part of the reasoning, rather than a purely aesthetic goal.

That’s about it.
Imagine the noise that could be made in this thread if I said what I really want for an engine for this thing? A 3.0l turbo diesel. With a transfer case and low range. And no sound deadening. Not even a, gasp, engine cover.
Now that would make some noise!

That it did.
One heck of a decoration which gets in the way of working on the engine.

My wife came home with a new 2021 Ford Escape last night. She parked it on the driveway this afternoon, so I went out and looked under the hood. She got an Escape with the 2.0 four cylinder. No engine cover. Maybe Ford is cutting costs.
