So I risked a few quid on a cleaning spray and gave the MAF sensor a bit of a blast. And now the engine is smooth and quiet. All of the issues have disappeared and it's my new tractable and quiet friend, i.e. it's how a Mondeo 2.0 TDCi should be. It's such a great drive. See more. My car is a 2008 140. I needed a new middle section on the exhaust. During that being fitted, it was noticed that there was a split at the flexi. I bought a new downpipe from carparts4less and that was fitted a week later. Almost instantly, I had issues with smoke from under the bonnet.

Hi all, new to your forum and have introcuced myself in the New Members section. I'm just upgrading from a Focus 1.8 Tdci Estate as it's not big enough to tow my caravan. Going to see a Mondeo 2.0 Tdci 130 6 speed. Just wondered about what common faults these cars have have, any special service u Ok, if anyone can hear a rattling noise at the front end of their Mondeo MK4 (2.0 TDCi only) and this also applies to S-Max and Galaxy 2.0 TDCi models, where the sound echoes around the car through acceleration etc,,, This can be linked to the air intake pipe which rattles. The technician told me the problem was fairly common and by placing I have this annoying issue with my new (ish) Mondeo 2.0 TDCi Titanium X Sport 163. Its 7 months old, and done just over 5000 miles, and I have owned it for a month. When changing from 1st to 2nd gear it does 1 of 3 things : 1) It acts normally (revs start to drop straight away when foot is released from gas and clutch depressed) This unburnt diesel contains minor toxins that may sting your eyes. This problem may be caused by: A clogged fuel filter. Most common causes of black smoke are faulty injectors, a faulty injector pump, a bad air filter (causing not enough oxygen to be supplied), a bad EGR valve (causing the valves to clog) or even a bad turbocharger.
