the 2011 - onwards focus,kuga, mondeo used the dct250 and just look at trademe for cars that have gearbox problems they are renowned for shitting themselves parents had to replace gearbox on their 2014 focus 2L diesel for that reason
before that the mondeos had the powershift and they were in the same basket known for shitting the bed randomly. Awesome on diesel mine used under 5L 100km on road trips and up to 6L/100 with abit of around town and open road.
if your mechanically minded they can be bargains as its a known issue lots of videos on youtube about how to fix and repair and get on the road for under 1000$ in parts and a day or 2 in work to repair
