All diesel Mk6 & Mk7 Transits "built" from 2000> are Duratorq engines. All Mk6's are built from beginning of 2000 to April 17th of 2006 and all are Euro-3. Mk7's built from April 17 2006 to September 26th 2011 are Euro-4, any Mk7's built after September 26th 2011 to the end of 2014 are Euro-5.
Depending on what year model and whether FWD or RWD can determine which engine you have. Also, each engine type can have several hp ratings. As an example, the Mk6 2.4 RWD only came in 75, 90, 115, 120, 125 and 135hp...the 135 was the only TDCi among them, the rest are TDDi.
Below is just my opinion but often causes me confusion.
We had a chap tell us he had a "13 plate" etc, in which case would make it a Mk7 Euro-5, however, it was actually an earlier 2011 built Euro-4 but wasn't registered until 2013.... which means we gave him the wrong advice on fuel system parts. Some vehicles can sit around at a dealer or warehouse for a couple of years before being "first registered", so that "13 plate" reference can be a bit misleading, it could have been built a year or two earlier. "Build date" is what defines the model. Here in Australia the VIN or build date is what we use for parts ordering etc...so there is no confusion.
