Ford seem to be as sympathetic to those owners as they were to the mugs who got landed with the DSG gearbox.

Maybe they have fixed the problem now. Maybe. Are you feeling lucky?

I will stick with a nice big engine with no turbos or superchargers to go wrong. If you need more power get a bigger engine.
1.0 EB never came with DSG, it had manual trans or 6F auto trans.
the only vehicles that got dry clutch DSG was 2.0 DI Focus and 1.6? Fiesta.

The Dragon 1.5 EB is a different 3 cylinder family, DSG in dry and wet clutch
are being replaced by new corporate 8-speed auto a JV developed with GM
