Research notes
Caveats and conflicts (6)
- Also called "Cologne" transmission in the List of Ford transmissions. 2.0L Zetec and 2.5L Duratec V6 cars both 5-speed manual.
- Row mixes several cars and markets; per-variant boxes not confirmed.
- Engine split between iB5 and MTX-75 is from two Wikipedia articles and not confirmed in a manual. SVT Focus used Getrag MT285 6-speed.
- Sources conflict; iB5 inferred from 2000-07 NA cars.
- Durashift is the Ford marketing name.
- Durashift is the marketing name for the MTX-75.
