ISSUE Some 2011-2015 Fiesta vehicles built on or before 10/15/2014 and 2012-2016 Focus vehicles equipped with a DPS6 automatic transmission may exhibit excessive transmission clutch shudder on light acceleration. Some vehicles may or may not exhibit transmission fluid leaking from the clutch housing. ACTION Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition. SERVICE PROCEDURE Confirm that FSA 15B22 has been completed, if it is open in OASIS; perform the action to update the PCM/TCM prior to the action in this bulletin. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 307-01 for 2012-2016 Focus and 2014-2015 Fiesta. For 2011-2013 Fiesta refer to WSM, Section 307-11. When referred to the WSM all steps listed in the WSM must be performed. NOTE: PERFORMING THE SERVICE ROUTINES WILL CLEAR ADAPTIVE STRATEGY. FAILURE TO PERFORM ALL STEPS OF THE IDS ROUTINES MAY RESULT IN ERRATIC SHIFTS AND DRIVEABILITY CONCERNS. 1. Using IDS follow the WSM Diagnosis and Testing, Diagnosis by Symptom, Pinpoint Test A (All Focus and 2014-15 Fiesta) or Pinpoint Test N (2011-2013 Fiesta) - Clutch Shudder on Acceleration to diagnose shudder. a. Save and upload IDS Datalogger Session Data. b. For clutch replacement retrieve repair validation code (RVC). c. New vehicles with less than 1600 km (1000 miles) have not fully completed the clutch friction green clutch breakin period that is required before attempting to replace the clutch or hardware. d. Vehicles built on 6/6/2013 or later have the improved transmission input shaft seals that are unlikely to experience leaks and should only be replaced if leaking. 2. If the clutch is replaced, use IDS to reprogram the PCM/TCM to the latest calibration using IDS release 101.04 or higher. Make sure you are connected to the internet when entering module programming to obtain the latest updates. Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com. a. IDS software updates have been made to streamline the process and improve DPS6 Shudder diagnostics and reprogramming. b. Adjust the vehicle clock as required, it may have lost time during the reprogramming process. Transmission differential seal plugs are now released and should be installed during transmission removal and while performing bench repairs to reduce/eliminate the loss of transmission fluid.
