Ford Ranger PX2 (2015–2018) Model Overview & Quality Parts

The PX2 quickly became one of Australia’s top-selling utes due to its strong 3.2L and 2.2L diesel options, excellent towing capability and broad model range including XL, XLS, XLT and Wildtrak.

The PX2 carried over the proven 3.2L and 2.2L turbo diesel engines but with refinements to improve NVH, fuel economy and driveability. The 6R80 automatic transmission received internal updates and calibration changes.

• Known for EGR and intake-soot related issues.

2.2L Turbo Diesel (P4AT)

• Found in XL and XLS;
• Common fleet vehicle;
• Good economy and reliability;

While the PX2 is an evolution of the PX1, many components do not interchange due to the facelift, upgraded electronics and revised engine calibrations. Some driveline components have partial compatibility. Doors hardware is styled differently but door bodies are the same. Most body mouldings and interior parts are PX2-specific.

• Engines: Mostly PX2-specific due to updated sensors and ECU mapping, however the main engine block is virtually the same for PX1, PX2 & PX3;

• Transmissions: 6R80 interchangeable with PX3 in many cases;

• Panels: PX2 front panels do not interchange with PX1 or PX3. Doors have some interchangeability;
