The automatic transmission assembly with reference number F1FP7000PA is designed for the Ford 8F24 8-speed automatic transmission. Engineered to replace older 6-speed and dual-clutch units, this compact transverse transmission features a traditional torque converter and planetary gearsets, delivering smooth shifting and improved reliability for small-displacement EcoBoost engines in the Ford Focus Mk4, Puma, Escape, and EcoSport.

Quick Specifications:

Part Number: F1FP7000PA (Ford OEM format)
Transmission Model: 8F24 (8-Speed Automatic)
Type: Transverse Front-Wheel Drive (FWD)
Max Input Torque: ~240-280 Nm (Optimized for 1.0L/1.5L EcoBoost)
Fluid Type: Mercon ULV (Ultra Low Viscosity)
Fluid Capacity: ~6.0 - 7.0 Liters (dry fill)

Applications:

Ford Focus MK4 (2018-present, 1.0L/1.5L EcoBoost variants)
Ford Puma (2020-present, 1.0L EcoBoost Mild Hybrid variants)
Ford Escape / Kuga (2020-present, 1.5L EcoBoost variants)
Ford EcoSport (Select global markets, 1.0L/1.5L EcoBoost)
Ford Fiesta (Late production 1.0L EcoBoost variants)

Complete Assembly Includes:

✅ Transmission case with optimized planetary gear sets
✅ Torque converter with lock-up clutch
✅ Valve body with advanced solenoid pack
✅ Integrated Transmission Control Module (TCM)
✅ Oil pump, clutch packs, and speed sensors
✅ Sealing gaskets and O-rings

Key Features:

✅ 8-speed architecture provides a wider gear ratio spread for better acceleration and highway fuel economy.
✅ Traditional torque converter design eliminates the low-speed shudder associated with earlier dry dual-clutch transmissions.
✅ Ultra-low viscosity fluid (Mercon ULV) reduces internal parasitic drag and improves thermal efficiency.
✅ Compact and lightweight packaging specifically designed for small-displacement 3-cylinder and 4-cylinder engines.
✅ Adaptive shift logic continuously learns driving habits to optimize shift points and clutch engagement.

Technical Notes:

Critical Installation Requirements:

Fluid Specification: Must use Mercon ULV fluid exclusively. Using older Mercon LV or standard ATF will cause severe shift issues, overheating, and internal damage due to incorrect friction characteristics and viscosity.
TCM Programming: As-built data configuration and adaptation resets must be performed using Ford FDRS or IDS diagnostic tools after installation to ensure proper shift scheduling.
Torque Converter Seating: Ensure the torque converter is fully seated into the transmission oil pump before mating to the engine block. Failure to do so will result in catastrophic oil pump failure upon startup.
Cooler Flushing: Mandatory flushing of the transmission cooler and lines is required to prevent cross-contamination of metallic debris from the failed unit.

Common Issues & Maintenance:

Shift Quality Adaptation: The 8F24 relies heavily on adaptive learning. Rough shifts immediately after installation usually require a TCM reset and a specific drive cycle relearning procedure.
Fluid Service Intervals: Although sometimes marketed as "filled for life," regular Mercon ULV fluid drain and fills (every 60,000–80,000 km) are highly recommended to maintain valve body health and clutch longevity.
Thermal Management: Ensure the transmission cooler integrated into the radiator is free of debris to prevent fluid degradation, especially in stop-and-go traffic or during heavy loads.
