Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AWD Power Transfer Unit covered — a known trouble spot on the MKS?
Yes. The D3-platform AWD system’s Power Transfer Unit is notorious for premature wear when fluid changes are neglected. This manual includes full PTU fluid service intervals, seal and gasket replacement procedures, and complete removal and installation instructions for the coupling unit.
Does this manual cover both the base 3.7L and the EcoBoost 3.5L variants?
Both engines are fully documented. The 3.7L Ti-VCT Duratec V6 and the turbocharged 3.5L GTDI EcoBoost V6 each have dedicated sections covering specifications, removal, rebuild, and diagnostic procedures, along with transmission pairing details for both the 6F50 and 6F55 gearboxes.
Are complete wiring diagrams included for systems like SYNC and THX audio?
Yes. Electrical coverage spans the full vehicle architecture — engine management, SYNC infotainment, THX II audio, adaptive cruise control, collision warning, power seat circuits, climate control, and all lighting systems. Each diagram includes connector pinouts, wire colors, and ground locations.
