The first generation of the well-liked S-MAX minivan was equipped with the 2.5-liter Ford HUWA turbo engine, which was manufactured at the Swedish facility between 2006 and 2010, but only prior to restyling. The Volvo engine with the B5254T3 index is essentially what this power unit is.
DURATEC ST/RS family:
2.0 L – ALDA, HMDA;
2.5 L – HUBA, HYDA, HYDB, HUWA, JZDA.
The engine was installed on:
- Ford S-Max Mk1 in 2006 – 2010.

Disadvantages of the HUWA engine
The phase control system’s valves and couplings are this motor’s weak point;
Additionally, many experience lubricant consumption as a result of clogged crankcase ventilation; oil frequently pushes through the front camshaft oil seals for the same reason.
Keep a close eye on the timing belt’s condition because a broken one causes the valve to bend. The fuel pump and turbine frequently need maintenance after 150–200 thousand kilometers.
