Gearboxes That Fit the Ford EcoSport

The EcoSport runs these 3 gearboxes — match yours by VIN and engine, then request a free quote.

PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6) Dry Dual-Clutch — Fiesta / EcoSport for the Ford EcoSport
Automatic

PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6) Dry Dual-Clutch — Fiesta / EcoSport

Code: 6DCT250 / DPS6 · 6-speed automatic

The DRY-clutch PowerShift — the headline Ford failure box. Shudder on pull-away, dry-clutch oil contamination and TCM (control module) faults are the classic symptoms, and Ford treats most of these as replace-only. This is NOT a normal automatic and NOT the same as the wet 6DCT450. PowerShift is rarely priced openly in SA — request a quote so verified suppliers can match a used or reconditioned unit (or a clutch/TCM assembly) to your exact car.

6F35 6-Speed Torque-Converter Auto (NOT PowerShift) — Kuga / Focus / EcoSport for the Ford EcoSport
Automatic

6F35 6-Speed Torque-Converter Auto (NOT PowerShift) — Kuga / Focus / EcoSport

Code: 6F35 · 6-speed automatic

A conventional 6-speed torque-converter automatic — NOT a PowerShift dual-clutch. Fitted to SOME Focus, Kuga and EcoSport 1.5 automatics (the split with the PowerShift is year- and engine-dependent). It shares no parts with the dry 6DCT250 or wet 6DCT450 PowerShift, so confirming 6F35 vs PowerShift by VIN is essential before buying. Usually quoted on request — submit a quote and verified suppliers confirm the correct unit for your car.

iB5 / MTX-75 5- & 6-Speed Manual — Fiesta / Figo / Focus for the Ford EcoSport
Manual

iB5 / MTX-75 5- & 6-Speed Manual — Fiesta / Figo / Focus

Code: iB5 / MTX-75 · 5- / 6-speed manual

The small-car manual transaxles (iB5 and MTX-75) across the Fiesta, Figo, small Focus and EcoSport. The cheapest and simplest Ford gearboxes to source and repair — used Fiesta/Focus manuals can start as low as R850, with Figo/Fiesta units typically R4,500–R6,500. The Figo code varies by generation and the Bantam runs a 5-speed manual — confirm the exact code by VIN when you request a quote.

Buying a Ford EcoSport Gearbox in South Africa

Looking for a Ford EcoSport gearbox in South Africa? Engine Finder connects you with verified suppliers across the country — send one enquiry and matched suppliers come back with prices and availability. The EcoSport is a box you must confirm carefully: the 2013–2017 pre-facelift 1.5 automatic uses the dry PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6) dual-clutch, while the 2018-onward facelift 1.5 / 1.0 auto typically uses the 6F35, a conventional torque-converter automatic that shares no parts with the PowerShift. Manual EcoSports run the small iB5 / MTX-75 transaxle. Because the split is year- and engine-dependent, confirming 6DCT250 vs 6F35 vs manual by VIN before you buy is essential.

Ford EcoSport Gearbox — What to Check

The pre-facelift EcoSport 1.5 auto uses the dry PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6), the headline Ford failure box — pull-away shudder, dry-clutch oil contamination and TCM (control module) faults are the classic symptoms, and Ford generally treats these as replace-only. The later 6F35 torque-converter auto and the iB5 / MTX-75 manuals are far simpler and cheaper to source and repair. The big trap is confusing a dry 6DCT250 PowerShift with a 6F35 auto — they share no parts, so always confirm the exact unit by VIN before buying.

Ford EcoSport Gearbox FAQs

How much does a Ford EcoSport gearbox cost in South Africa?

It depends entirely on which box you have. The small manual EcoSport uses the iB5 / MTX-75 transaxle, among the cheapest Ford gearboxes — the smallest Ford manuals start as low as R850. The pre-facelift 1.5 automatic is the dry PowerShift 6DCT250, indicatively around R15,000 – R21,500 but usually quoted on request, and the 2018-onward 6F35 torque-converter auto is priced on request too. Confirm manual, PowerShift or 6F35 by VIN, then request a quote to compare verified suppliers on your exact EcoSport.

Which gearbox does the Ford EcoSport automatic use?

There are two very different automatics. The 2013–2017 pre-facelift EcoSport 1.5 auto uses the dry PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6) dual-clutch — the headline Ford failure box. The 2018-onward facelift 1.5 / 1.0 auto typically uses the 6F35, a conventional torque-converter automatic. They share no parts, and the split is year- and engine-dependent, so the only reliable way to know yours is by VIN. Give your VIN when you request a quote and suppliers confirm the correct unit.

Is the EcoSport a PowerShift or a normal automatic gearbox?

It can be either, which is why confirmation matters. The 2013–2017 EcoSport 1.5 auto is the dry PowerShift 6DCT250 dual-clutch, while the 2018-onward facelift auto typically moved to the 6F35, a conventional torque-converter automatic. A PowerShift and a 6F35 share no parts and are completely different designs, so ordering the wrong one won't fit. Confirm which by VIN, and make it clear to suppliers whether you need the PowerShift or the 6F35 when you request a quote.

Why is the EcoSport PowerShift gearbox a problem?

The pre-facelift EcoSport 1.5 auto uses the dry PowerShift 6DCT250 (DPS6), which owners ask about most — pull-away shudder, dry-clutch oil contamination and TCM (control module) faults are the classic complaints, and Ford generally treats these as replace-only. Many issues come down to the clutch pack or control module rather than a totally dead gearbox, so get it diagnosed first. Then request a quote and let verified suppliers price a used or reconditioned unit against a clutch or TCM assembly for your EcoSport.
