After watching your video a few dozen times I gave it a crack over the weekend. It went exactly as you outlined.

Just wanted to add another thank you for this very clear video for a service procedure that is rather intimidating compared to your regular motor oil change. As someone else mentioned, getting the car level without a professional lift is hard. I used two ramps and two jack stands and hope it was close enough. Anyway, this service was done at only 32000K on an S-Max that is almost all stop and go city driving, so really quite a lot of wear on the transmission. The shifting instantly improved. Just wanted to add a tip that I wish I had seen earlier: when you reinstall the air filter housing and reconnect the MAS in the shifting step, especially in the S-Max which is really a pain to reinstall, just reattach the housing to the hose upside down laying on top of everything and don't worry about the air intake duct.

A cheap option to get the car level for this is to park it on a gentle downhill, chock the rear wheels then jack up the front.

That's what she said! Very similar to the VW DSG... we use the Fuchs or VW fluid. You can't beat the shifting speed of these though... since the next gear is already engaged, but you are right... manual is the way to go!

You should really stick to the recommended service interval of 3 years or 60,000km. If you do the kind of driving that's hard on a transmission, then do it even sooner. Once I got my car lifted it took me about 1.5 hours including all the cleanup etc. But I have an S-max which is even harder to work on than the Mondeo.

Do you uave to have the car off all 4 wheels

Hi Badger, I have a 2009 Mondeo 2.0TDCI Powershift and the gearbox is smooth and changes nicely and accelerates well and drives like new. I do about 2,500miles per year and every 6 months or so the car goes into limp mode and I get a message come up saying 'Transmission Service Required' and 'Hill start unavailable'. I pull over and stop the engine and ignition off, Restart the engine and all is fine again and messages gone and no fault codes are stored on OBD2 Scanner. Then 6 months later it will do it again. I want to change the oil but am fearful. How does the car know that the Trans requires service? Is there a sensor that detects dirty oil? I am more than capable of changing this myself and I am competent DIY mechanic looking after my Ford Capri 2.8i and rebuiding the engine myself. I asked Ford (Rang Main Ford Tech help) and they informed me that NO Gearbox Oil change is required on my car and it is not in the Ford Schedule for my car. Yet on an issue with my Focus ST gear cable I got to speak to a Local Ford Master Tech and I mentioned the Powershift Limp mode and message scenario and he looked on ETIS and informed me that my car was an earlier model and does NOT have the external Filter on it! Also, on a Forum someone mentons that this 'occasional fault' I have is something to do with an EGR glitch and not related to the gearbox...? I havnt as yet jacked the car up and taken the wheel liner out to ascertain wether it does have a filter or not. The car has done 116k Miles (186K Km) and has never had the oil changed yet. Have you heard of earlier model differences like mine and IF I have 3 drain Bungs where is the other bung (middle?) and WHY 3? Should I change the oil or leave it well alone? What are your thoughts please? I have recently been informed that if I DON'T have an external filter on the side of my Gearbox then it is NOT a Powershift. If so it will be an Aisin Warner box but does this box still have the 'S' Mode on the side of the shifter with the '+' and '-' sections?

It would be nice if they put a plug in the converter (written before watching all the video) so that you can get all the fluid out instead of half of it. In the US that don't put drain plugs in the pans. If you want to change fluid you have to drop the pan. When changed the fluid in my wife's Chrysler T&C I replaced the pan with one with a plug in it. Drained the fluid recently before taking a trip to Chicago (800 miles) so much nicer with a plug and a lot faster to change. That is a crazy procedure for changing the fluid. How much new fluid are you wasting to do that? Good job. Good vid. Oh BTW my wife wants to know who the ol lady is? Your mother? She says you should call her mom.

My mondeo is a 6 speed manual. I feel like I should have gone for auto because in the manual I feel like I am constantly having to change gears. Especially on the roads where I live they are quite narrow and I have to slow down and speed up a lot. Oh well.

Hey great video, gave me the confidence to give it a go on a 2011 Mondeo 2.0TDCI (haven't done it yet) I'm looking at Penrite DCT Fluid, seems like it would fit in your table pretty well Clear Natural Colour Density @ 15C 0.851 Visc @ 40C 32.0 Visc @ 100C 6.8 Thanks for the video

Daniel Reynolds cheers! I've always been happy with Penrite fluids so should be a good choice. I go for Morris as the distributor is down the road from me but otherwise that would probably be the fluid I used

@@Badgertronix Finally got round to it today, went down without a hitch, the hardest part was finding points to jack amd stand. I ended up carefully using the pinch welds for the stands, and the front pinch welds to jack and the rear lower control arms at the back (i think). Would like to know where you jack from. I accessed the filter from underneath with a 32mm socket and universal joint, came out nicely, other than that followed your instructions to a tee. I got close to 8L out, think I put about back through. The top up method was harder to discern the flow change than i imagined. Used penrite dct fluid and a genuine ford filter Thanks a lot for the help

The fluid that came out looked a bit dark and sparkly (Gothic Disco?) for only two years of operation. Probably a good thing you got in there to change it out! Seems like a simple enough procedure once you know what's required. :D

quelque soit le site, français ou autre, je vois personne s assurer de dévisser le boulon de remplissage de la bva avant de vidanger...Si pour une raison ou une autre tu peux pas tu es mort! tu fais comment quand ta vidangé et que tu ne peux pas remplir ???

hi, can I ask a question regarding the retarded way ford expects you to jump through hoops when refilling the gearbox. If you have 2 bottle which simulate the 2 chambers one is empty and one is full and you put a pipe on each to suck up the oil and pass it through a filter simulating the oil going to the filter which ford has one filter for both chambers and once it passes through the filter it must return to each chamber like on the gearbox so you put 2 pipes on from a filter back to the 2 bottles. Well if you start by filling one bottle and leaving the other bottle empty once you pump the oil from the full bottle to the filter the clean oil will divide and refill both bottles simulating both chambers. So why on earth do we need to go through this stupid exercise. Ive changed oil on my gearbox. I've drained the gearbox both chambers (6 litres) removed the filter and replaced it filled it refitted it. Poured 6 litres into the gearbox. Put the rest of the airbag on and refitted the covers below and above. And Ive drove the car perfect without any issues what so ever!

good job looks like you worked up a sweat lol

Do you believe there is any truth to the poor earthing setup they have on these Ford Mondeo's? I have this exact car, it's not throwing any codes, but it is jerky (kinda normal), but at temperature, after a decent amount of driving, there is shuddering/juddering under light load, and engine speed surging (it's all tranny related). I have a feeling it is temperature related, but it could also just be related to the clutches themselves. I'm at 163000 kilometers. To my understanding, Ford (only after a lot of pressure from outside forces) decided to warranty these boxes for 7 years/160k kilometers.

well, that's only if you want to include the total including channel volume... if you just want to base it on the sump volume, that's what I'd go by, after it's been sitting overnight.

Thanks for this Badger. I have a friend who wants theirs done. I've never done a powershift before. Watching someone do it makes me more comfortable doing it on top of just the service manual info. Plus i can blame it on you when it goes wrong! haha JK! It really is a very strange box if you ask me. Not sure why Ford had their own built instead of just using the ZF touchtronic like a lot of German vehicles do... Despite the fact it is a bit of a time bomb i think the auto is the way to go. Most of the 6 speeds I've seen haven't made it to 100,000 miles before the DMF or the clutch has gone. Plus you have to drop the gearbox to do that so even if you powershift packs up its about the same amount of work. Just more expensive to source a powershift from a scrapyard (and more expensive)!

+zoidberg444 they never sold the manual here which is really annoying. You can't even buy a manual Focus anymore. Spare Powershift parts don't seem too expensive and I've managed to find the ATSG service guide so one day there might be a rebuild series on here. Hopefully no time soon ..

Badgertronix You could probably find a grey import. I can't believe anyone would want an auto focus. The combination of the 1.6 petrol and a 5 speed was a real winner on that car. Rebuilding a gearbox has never been something i have wanted to do. To much time and investment for a 50/50 chance of not getting it back together properly!
