We have 2011 S-Max 163 Powershift and it requires an oil change every 3 years (with filter) at about ยฃ200. The oil is very expensive and there is a strict changing procedure (because there are 2 compartments, actuators and gears) so it is important that the Ford procedure is followed.
so your Mondeo is using a lot of oil and smoking from exhaust. You've read that it could be stuck oil-control rings or valve stem seals need replacing. And t
Will try a oilchange. Thinking I will get 10 litres of oil, fill them all in bucket and use hoses from oilcooler to change oil. One hose into new oil and other into a emty bucket and start engine, That way all oil will get changed. Or just change 2x times from drainplug, that will renew about 75% of fluid.
The cause for these symptoms, 99% of the time, is the clutch plate sticking to the input shaft on a cold start. Mine is exactly. the same. 1st and reverse almost impossible to select from startup until you put it in another. gear then it will go in any gear as sweet as anything. Staring the car in gear with the clutch.

Wheel shaking but stopping when you let off is generally the inner CV joint losing 1 or more of the needle rollers. You say youve had the ball joint apart. This is likely to be the cause. Stripping and cleaning the CV joint, and re-fitting the needle roller thats fell out will more than likely cure it.
