Produced from 2010 to 2014, the 2.0-liter Ford TPBA or Mondeo 4 2.0 EcoBoost engine was mounted on a redesigned fourth generation of the well-known Mondeo model. This power unit was assigned an entirely different R9CB index following the model’s generation change.
The TNBB, TPWA, and R9DA internal combustion engines are also part of the 2.0 EcoBoost line.
The engine was installed on:
- Ford Mondeo Mk4 in 2010 – 2014.

Disadvantages of the TPBA engine
The exhaust manifold’s destruction is the most well-known engine issue;
Exhaust debris is drawn into the turbine, quickly disabling it; direct injection nozzles are frequently dirty here and valves are coked; the incorrect oil selection shortens the phase regulators’ lifespan to 80–100 thousand kilometers; even in these turbo engines, piston burnout from detonation happens on occasion.
