Did the ford Mondeo change its Diesel engine at anytime between 2011 model and 2013?

I got a replacement engine for my 2011 MC
But there are a few differences 1 is, the fuel filter on this replacement engine is on the engine itself, while the fuel filter on my 2011 mondeo is at the back where the fuel tank is.

Why i ask is i F....d up again. This replacement engine doesnt suit my car according to the mechanic.

The wreckers advertised the engine as 2012 where in fact the engine came from a 2013 according to the PPSR check.

The Mark V MD came out in 2013 see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_M...rth_generation). But wasn't generally available until April 2015. There was a also facelift of the MC in June 2011 Building in the “MB MY11” update that occurred in May 2010 and which saw the arrival of an upgraded 120kW/340Nm 2.0-litre Duratorq TDCi see https://www.goauto.com.au/used-car-r...7-01/5208.html

So seems like the company who sold me the engine, misinformed me when advertising a 2012 engine, where in fact its a 2013 MD engine.

More likely they sold you one from the MB MY11 with the upgraded 120kW/340Nm 2.0-litre Duratorq TDCi while your car is probably the MY10 pre June prior model. See https://www.goauto.com.au/used-car-r...7-01/5208.html and https://www.goauto.com.au/used-car-r...8-01/3027.html for the admittedly confusing history of the MC model. What's the VIN numbers and manufacturing date and country on your Compliance Plate? Just to confuse things more there likely might also have been a few grey imports of UK vehicles bought in by UK migrants bringing their UK purchased Mondeo with them.

Put them into this page noting the 3rd Character in the VIN is a Zero not a "O".

2011 Mondeo (2007)

2013 Mondeo (2007)

So you are trying to get a 2013 (likely an MD) engine into a 2011 MC car. So you may be right with the

ok got it now. Thanks for the heads up the 0 is zero not the letter "O"

Thats right, looks like i'm trying to get a 2013 mondeo engine into my 2011 MC.

But they advertised it as 2012 Mondeo engine. Would a 2012 mondeo be the same as a 2011? why i ask is if it's their fault going by the year they advertised (2012 when in reality its a 2013), then they can't refuse to exchange it and free delivery of a correct engine.

[aussiblue]

Yes the OZ site seems to be down at the moment.That's why I posted the second link https://www.ford.co.uk/support just enter the VIN after the magnifying glass.

's there fault going by the year they advertised, then they can't refuse to exchange it and free delivery of a correct engine.

Agreed. Consumer Protection in your state will look after if need be but I wouldn't give the dealer too much of a hard time as it was likely an honest mistake as:

a) Mondeos are not the best know of models in terms of Oz mechanics and dealers (even Ford Dealers) familiarity (the were never big sellers in OZ see https://www.redbook.com.au/editorial...010-14-108507/) ; and
b) As you have found already I think, the model designations, variations and linage of Mondeos in Australia is confusing at best.

I have to ask is it a green car bought on the 13th of the month per https://www.snopes.com/list/bad-luck-superstitions/

lol

But i cover the rest on that list and more.
Seriously, i don't know what ive done to deserve this. All i did was to help my son out. I had nothing but good intention. I pray every day, i m a carer for my wife and my mum, i volunteer where i can, i wouldn't harm anything or anyone. Why all this bad luck..... i'm struggling to figure out.

[aussiblue]

A tip for next time, pay $5 when car buying and get a brutally objective review report from the Dog & Lemon Guide https://dogandlemon.com/ . Download and read the free sample Land Rover Freelander review to see how brutal. I think you would also still find the Mondeo report useful and worth the $5 (or better spend $10 and get a review report on your own car(s) too) as it also advises on things that commonly fail and what other issues might arise in future and, in some cases, how to avoid or fix these issues; just don't trade the Mondeo in on a Feelander. Be warned very few cars get a totally positive report at Dog & Lemon.

I hope it works out in the end for you; nobody deserves all that stress.

Yeah there was a mild update between 2011 and 2013. The main visible difference is as you noted, the fuel filter is mounted on the engine. There are different EGR and PCV hoses too.

The MD engine is a much bigger update. It's easy to see the difference, it has an aluminium intake manifold instead of plastic, and a plastic sump instead of metal.

Just did a search on the link aussieblue gave me using the vin on this 2013 engine. It definitely came up as a MC just like my car. But like you said, the fuel filter, different egr hose and the mechanic needed to change the bracket that all the pullys are attached to that the fan belt winds through including the power steering pump attaches to.... but the holes on that bracket doesnt exactly line up. I can imagine the other trouble i will have when it comes to the computer recognizing this 2013 engine.
