The Ducato 3.0 Multijet I4 turbodiesel, US-branded EcoDiesel. M40MTA six-speed automated manual (a clutch-and-gearbox robot, not a torque-converter automatic - its behavior is a known complaint topic).

Platform recipes (3)

• Underboost or limp episodes on the ProMaster EcoDiesel: smoke-test the charge path before condemning the $1,765 turbo (mode fm-pmed-turbo-chargeair)
• The DEF/SCR diagnosis chain on the rare F1C ProMaster diesel: cap and fluid quality first, pump and injector mid-tier, the $3,000 tank last
• Flashing glow lamp or rough cold starts on the ProMaster EcoDiesel (F1C): the lamp names the cylinder - measure plugs before condemning the module (mode fm-pmed-glow-start)
