The 2.2-liter Ford 2.2 TDCi diesel engines were produced by the company from 2006 to 2018 and were installed on a number of popular models under the Ford, Land Rover and Jaguar brands. In fact, these power units are clones of the Peugeot DW12MTED4 and DW12CTED4 engines.
Ford 2.2 TDCi engine design
In 2006, a 2.2-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 156 hp debuted on the Land Rover Freelander II SUV, which was one of the variations of the Peugeot DW12MTED4 engine. In 2008, its 175-horsepower modification appeared on the Ford Mondeo, Galaxy and S-Max models. By design, there is a cast-iron block, an aluminum 16-valve cylinder head with hydraulic compensators, a combined timing drive from a belt and a small chain between the camshafts, a modern Bosch EDC16CP39 Common Rail fuel system with piezo injectors, and a powerful Garrett GTB1752VK turbocharger with variable geometry and intercooler.
In 2010, this diesel engine was upgraded, similar to the Peugeot DW12CTED4 engine. Thanks to a more efficient Mitsubishi TD04V turbine, its power was raised to 200 hp.
Specifications
The first generation of such diesel engines developed 175 hp and was equipped with a Garrett GTB1752VK turbine:
| Displacement, cc | 2179 |
| Fuel system | Common Rail |
| Power output, hp | 175 |
| Torque output, Nm | 400 |
| Cylinder block | cast iron R4 |

There were 2 different versions of the engine with the same technical characteristics:
| Q4BA (175 hp / 400 Nm) | Ford Mondeo Mk4 |
| Q4WA (175 hp / 400 Nm) | Ford Galaxy Mk2, S-Max Mk1 |
Diesels of the second generation developed up to 200 hp thanks to a more powerful MHI TD04V turbine:
| Displacement, cc | 2179 |
| Fuel system | Common Rail |
| Power output, hp | 200 |
| Torque output, Nm | 420 |
| Cylinder block | cast iron R4 |
| Block head | aluminum 16v |
| Cylinder bore, mm | 85 |
| Piston stroke, mm | 96 |
| Compression ratio | 15.8 |
| Fuel type | diesel |
| Euro standards | EURO 5 |
There were 2 different versions of the engine with the same technical characteristics:
| KNBA (200 hp / 420 Nm) | Ford Mondeo Mk4 |
| KNWA (200 hp / 420 Nm) | Ford Galaxy Mk2, S-Max Mk1 |
Disadvantages of the Ford 2.2 TDCi engine
- The main problems of this unit are typical for most modern diesel engines: piezo injectors do not tolerate bad fuel, the EGR valve clogs rather quickly, the particulate filter and turbocharger geometry are not very high resource.
- This diesel engine does not like liquid oils very much and it is better to use 5W-40 and 5W-50, otherwise, with intensive acceleration from low revs, it can turn the liners here.
