The Mondeo is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission (6AT) with manual shifting capability. After years of tuning and matching, this 6AT has been perfectly paired with Ford's Eco-boost engine. It performs excellently in terms of downshift speed and gearshift smoothness. Function of Transmission: A transmission is a device that changes the speed ratio and direction of motion. It is used in automobiles, tractors, ships, machine tools, and various machines to alter the torque, speed, and direction of motion transmitted from the driving shaft to the driven shaft under different working conditions. Gear-driven transmissions generally consist of a housing and several gear pairs. Transmissions are divided into manual and automatic types. Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations. Automatic transmissions (AT) are composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque control system, and a hydraulic control system. Speed and torque changes are achieved through hydraulic transmission and gear combinations. Transmission Maintenance: Regularly replace the transmission fluid. For manual transmission models, replace the transmission fluid every 3 years or 60,000 kilometers. For automatic transmission models, replace the transmission fluid every 4 years or 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers.

I've driven quite a few Ford Mondeos, and the transmission type is generally dominated by automatic transmissions. If you're buying a new car or a model from recent years, most Mondeos come equipped with a 6-speed or 8-speed automatic transmission, such as Ford's SelectShift system, which offers super smooth shifting and decent fuel consumption control. Driving on city roads, it feels responsive, and acceleration on the highway is not sluggish. Older models might have fewer manual transmission options, but automatic transmissions are more mainstream. Maintenance-wise, as long as you change the transmission fluid regularly, there are basically no major issues. The transmission is the part that most affects driving comfort, and the Mondeo's design in this aspect is quite user-friendly, making it suitable for commuting or long-distance travel.

What Causes the Steering Wheel to Lock and the Key to Not Turn, Preventing the Car from Starting?

Reasons why the steering wheel suddenly locks and the car won't start during normal driving: Possible causes include the steering wheel universal joint sticking, steering gear failure, or interference in the steering linkage movement. The exact cause should be determined based on the actual vehicle condition. It is recommended to stop immediately and contact a 4S store or auto repair shop as soon as possible. The specific reasons for the steering wheel suddenly locking during normal driving are as follows: 1. Steering gear failure: This is likely due to an improperly designed drainage outlet at the bottom of the vehicle from the windshield water guide tube, combined with inadequate sealing of the power steering mechanism, which causes water to enter the sensor wiring harness or internal components. This leads to power steering failure and results in "steering wheel lock." If this is the cause, the vehicle may have a design defect. Of course, the possibility of issues with the steering gear wiring harness or other components leading to such incidents cannot be ruled out. 2. Steering wheel universal joint sticking: There is a pin inside the steering wheel. When the driver removes the key, even a slight turn of the steering wheel will cause the pin to pop into a hole, locking the steering wheel. In this state, the steering wheel cannot be turned, and the keyhole also cannot be turned, ensuring that unauthorized individuals cannot steal the vehicle. 3. Interference in the steering linkage movement: The steering drag link is responsible for transmitting the movement of the steering arm to the steering knuckle arm, while the steering tie rod is the base of the steering trapezoidal mechanism, a critical component ensuring the correct movement relationship between the left and right steering wheels. Therefore, any other interference in movement may cause the steering wheel to lock.

How to Change a Flat Tire with a Spare?

First, park the car safely, shift to P gear, and engage the handbrake. Then, place a triangular warning board 50-100 meters behind the car before starting to locate the spare tire and the tools needed for changing it. Loosen the wheel bolts. Use the car's weight and the friction between the tire and the ground to loosen them by turning counterclockwise. Take out the jack and position it at the designated jacking point or slot, then place the spare tire under the car. Remove the damaged tire, place it under the car, and tighten the bolts in a diagonal pattern. Do not tighten all the bolts at once.

What does the T procedure mean?

Automobiles with a T at the back indicate the use of a turbocharged engine, while those without a T indicate a naturally aspirated engine. The difference lies in the type of engine the vehicle is equipped with. Compared to a naturally aspirated engine of the same displacement, a "T" engine is more powerful. Turbocharged engines increase air intake: A turbocharged engine essentially uses a turbocharger when necessary, which increases air intake by utilizing the exhaust gases from the engine to drive the turbocharger. Turbocharged engines deliver stronger power: By increasing the air intake, more fuel is injected to match, burning more fuel to achieve stronger power.

Is it okay to engage second gear without pressing the accelerator?

Engaging second gear without pressing the accelerator is not advisable. When a car is in gear without the accelerator being pressed, it may cause the engine to stall (or barely start with severe jerking), which can damage the vehicle. Definition of the accelerator: The accelerator, also known as the "throttle," is a control device that regulates the engine's power (thrust). How the accelerator works: For gasoline engines, the accelerator controls the throttle valve opening, affecting the engine's air intake. When the accelerator is pressed, more fresh air enters, and the ECU increases the fuel injection accordingly, resulting in greater combustion force and higher engine speed.

How to Transfer Vehicle Ownership?

Consult the local vehicle management office. Prepare the required materials and complete the necessary procedures. Obtain a rubbing card to trace the vehicle frame number at the transfer hall, declare that the vehicle is being relocated out of the area, and submit the aforementioned materials and procedures at the transfer acceptance window. Drive the vehicle to the inspection area for transfer. Once the vehicle passes inspection, the public security vehicle management department will confiscate the original license plate and vehicle registration certificate. The vehicle management department will issue a temporary license plate to the vehicle owner.
