2007-2014 Ford Mondeo Flat Battery Replacement
Changing a defective battery on a 2007-2014 Ford Mondeo is a relatively easy process and should be well in the capability of a home mechanic.
The only tricky bit is the removal of the large air cleaner assembly as shown here to gain access and to remove the battery although even that is not as difficult as it looks.
This is my rather grubby 2013 Ford Mondeo Titanium X Duratorq TDCi engine bay which unlike the exterior has never been cleaned after 120,000 miles from new.
The battery was the original from new and lasted 4 years, 7 months and 18 days from first registration. Not too bad considering the tough life this vehicle has as a stop start Hackney Carriage taxi.
Note the waterproof duct tape around the nearside headlight seal. This is to prevent the ingress of water and condensation inside the headlight assembly. A common problem on this generation of Mondeo.
