Our Mondeo is booked in for a clutch change on Friday. Does anyone know
if this model is fitted with a dual mass flywheel?

My understanding is that the earlier four cylinder petrol Duratecs are free from the pestilence that is the dual mass flywheel. However, the later petrol Duratecs are afflicted. Well documented point of failure for TDCis ....... cue Chedbaby ;- )
Consult Haynes.
I've never understood the value of DMF, someone did explain it to me once and it made sense for 2 minutes 35 seconds. And then it seemed pointless again.

What? Chedbaby is a cash extraction tool?

a cash extraction tool is a device to make something better in sales speak but is actually worse in practise
think of new improved washing powders with a higher price, yet last month the same old product was the best available
see...........clear as mud
oh and thanks

What an awful thing to say about Cheddy. On the other hand ...

It was fitted with the DMF, and yes, it was totally shot. So £211+vat, plus new clutch & hydraulic slave cylinder later, our 135,000 mile Mondeo is now driving
along nicely. The car (estate) model has been used as a towcar and parts delivery van for the last 3 1/2 years and has been completely fault free (apart
from a new fanbelt tensioner & idler), I would recommend one to anyone.
