Engine – Overview
General
E62439
The 2.5L Duratec (VI5) engine is a turbo engine
with 5 cylinders and 20 valves, with electronically
controlled camshaft adjustment for both camshafts.The valve train is driven by a timing belt.

The front engine cover must always be fitted when
checking and adjusting the valve timing or timing
belt tension, as the timing marks for both camshaft
pulleys are provided on its front end.
Correct timing belt tension is ensured by the
automatic timing belt tensioner.
No direction of movement is specified when using
a new timing belt. If, however, the old timing belt
is reused, the direction of movement must be
marked prior to removal.
Once the timing belt has been correctly tensioned,
the engine must be rotated by hand two turns
clockwise at the crankshaft in order to allow a subsequent check of the timing belt tension and
adjustment.
Cylinder block
The cylinder block consists of three parts. These
are the cylinder block, the lower crankcase and the
sump pan. The cylinder block has five cylinder
liners made of cast iron, which cannot be replaced.
The pistons are made of a homogeneous aluminum
alloy with a graphite coating on the sides. This
coating serves to reduce friction and dampen noise.
The pistons are cooled from below via oil-spray
nozzles screwed into the cylinder block.

Engine – System Operation and Component Description
System Operation
The variable camshaft timing occurs
electro-hydraulically and individually for both
camshafts.
The camshaft adjusters work according to the vane
cell principle and have an adjustment range of 52°
crank angle on the intake side and 47° crank angle
on the exhaust side. On starting the engine and
during idling, both camshafts are mechanically
locked in their starting positions. The exhaust
camshaft is in the early position and the intake
camshaft is in the late position. The camshaftadjuster on the exhaust side has a torsion spring
which compensates the camshaft drive torque.
This ensures that the assembly can return to the
starting position under all operating conditions and
when the engine is turned off.
Internal exhaust gas recirculation can be realized
through continuous adjustment of the timings. This
results in better fuel consumption and more
favorable combustion temperatures which produce
less pollutants. This means that pollutant level IV
can be adhered to with a 3-way catalytic converter.
The variable timings also make it possible to
optimize performance with wide open throttle.
