Description
About This Transmission
The Ford DPS6, marketed by Ford as PowerShift and engineered as the 6DCT250, is a 6 speed dry dual-clutch automatic transmission used in the Ford Fiesta, Focus, C-Max, and select Fusion trims from 2010 through 2019. Unlike a traditional torque-converter automatic, the DPS6 uses two dry clutches and a Transmission Control Module to deliver shifts that are quicker than a hydraulic automatic and more fuel-efficient at the same time. Inside the case, two clutch packs alternate engagement as the gearbox swaps between odd and even gear pairs.
This setup gives the DPS6 PowerShift its signature feel: brisk acceleration off the line, manual-like efficiency on the highway, and lower fuel consumption than a comparable conventional automatic. For Fiesta and Focus owners replacing a worn or coded-out unit, a clean used DPS6 is a far better value than rebuilding the original.
Signs You Need a Replacement DPS6
- Shudder or jerkiness during low-speed acceleration, clutch wear or TCM adaptation drift
- Hard or delayed shifts between 1st and 2nd gear, dual mass flywheel or clutch fork wear
- Transmission warning light, TCM faults or stored shift adapt codes
- Loud bearing noise from the bell-housing area, input shaft bearing wear
- Slipping or no engagement in one gear range, clutch pack failure
- Burning smell after stop-and-go driving, dry clutch wear
Known DPS6 Issues We Inspect Before Shipping
- Clutch fork wear and clutch pack thickness, the most common DPS6 failure point
- TCM operation and stored adapt values, critical for smooth performance after install
- Input shaft and bearing condition
- Case integrity and seal surfaces
- Mechatronic unit operation where applicable
- Year-specific TSB updates, documented when present

The DPS6 uses two dry clutches that engage and disengage rapidly during shifts. Adaptive learning and proper fluid level usually smooth this out after a TCM relearn. Worn clutch packs or outdated TCM software are the most common causes of persistent shudder. We inspect both before shipping.
Yes. Ford issued multiple TCM software updates during the DPS6 production run. After installation a Ford dealer or qualified independent shop can flash the latest calibration and run the TCM adaptive relearn procedure for smooth operation.
Ford-specific dual clutch transmission fluid only. Conventional ATF will damage the DPS6. We drain the unit before shipping and provide fluid spec recommendations.

Sarah W., Bakersfield CA –
Original PowerShift in my Fiesta started shuddering at low speed and the dealer wanted $5,500 to replace it. Got a clean used DPS6 from Vaz for less than half that. Inspected and shipped quickly. Local independent shop installed it, did the TCM relearn, and the car shifts better than it did when I bought it.

Replaced a coded-out PowerShift on my Focus daily driver. Vaz confirmed the year and engine match before shipping and disclosed minor clutch fork wear, which they offered to swap out before sending. Smooth process, smooth install, smooth shifting.
