Depth Of Information:
Comprehensive, covering basic maintenance to complex engine and transmission rebuilds. Includes detailed technical specifications, torque values, and diagnostic flowcharts.
Torque Specifications:
Detailed torque values for all critical fasteners, including engine, transmission, suspension, and brake components.
Wiring Diagrams:
Comprehensive electrical wiring diagrams for all vehicle systems, color-coded for clarity.
Engine Options:
Likely covers 1.2L (Zetec-SE/Duratec), 1.4L (Zetec-SE/Duratec), and 1.6L (Zetec-SE/Duratec) gasoline engines. May also include diesel variants (e.g., 1.4 TDCi, 1.6 TDCi).
Horsepower Range:
Approximately 60 HP (1.2L diesel) to 120 HP (1.6L Ti-VCT).
Torque Range:
Approximately 105 Nm (1.2L diesel) to 160 Nm (1.6L Ti-VCT).
Fuel Injection Type:
Multi-point fuel injection (MPI) or sequential electronic fuel injection (SEFI) for gasoline engines. Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDi) for diesel engines.
ECU Type:
Electronic Control Unit (ECU) with integrated engine management.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 12,500 miles (20,000 km) or 1 year, whichever comes first, depending on driving conditions. Consult manual for specific engine/oil type.
Timing Belt Replacement:
Not applicable for chain-driven engines. For belt-driven engines, refer to manual for mileage/time intervals (e.g., 80,000 - 100,000 miles).
Engine Oil Spec:
Ford recommends specific viscosities (e.g., 5W-20, 5W-30, 0W-20) and API/ACEA ratings. Refer to manual for precise specification (e.g., WSS-M2C913-C).
Coolant Spec:
Ford Super Plus Premium Antifreeze (Glysantin G30 type) or equivalent. Typically a 50/50 mix with de-ionized water.
Transmission Fluid Manual:
GL-4 SAE 75W-90 or specific Ford specification (e.g., WSS-M2C200-D2).
Transmission Fluid Powershift:
Specific Ford PowerShift fluid (e.g., WSS-M2C200-D3).
Common Issues Engine:
Potential for occasional rough idle, coolant leaks (especially from thermostat housing), spark plug fouling.
Common Issues Transmission:
PowerShift transmission can sometimes exhibit jerky shifts or clutch engagement issues. Manual transmissions are generally robust.
Common Issues Suspension Steering:
Front suspension bushes and ball joints can wear over time, leading to knocking sounds. Power steering pump issues are rare but possible.
Common Issues Electrical:
Window regulator failures, minor electrical glitches, heater control panel faults.

Coolant Capacity:
Approximately 5.0 - 6.0 liters. Refer to manual for exact capacity.
Brake Fluid Capacity:
Typically 0.5 - 0.75 liters for the reservoir and system.
