Subject: Starter motor Failure
Model: Ford 2.0 TDCI FWD & 2.4 TDCi RWD/2.0 TDCi FWD
On inspection, the units do not exhibit any manufacturing defects. The premature failure of the unit is due to contamination of the pinion/drive area from metal dust particles produced within the Dual-mass Flywheel, when the clutch wears or becomes overheated. During scheduled servicing, it is recommended that the clutch is checked and if found to be showing signs of wear should be replaced.
