I've done a search but had no results, maybe because the auto box is not that common yet for Ford.

I'm currently running a Leon with the DSG box of which together with friends owning them has proved to be reliable, some now on 180k without any issues.

I'd love to ditch my Leon for a Focus.

Any reliability issues with the Powershift box and what millage is your on with any problems?

    From what i've read the smaller engine Powershift cars (namely Fiesta and B-Max and Focus) have terrible trouble with clutch packs. The Bigger engine cars appear much more reliable. Ford seem to have switched back to normal TC autos for their petrol models. leaving the diesels with the Powershift.

    As long as it's the DCT450 box and not the crappy DCT250 you should be fine.
