Sporty MPV packaging hides complex belt routing and tight clearances. The stamped factory reference keeps ordering precise when you are sourcing a full unit rather than chasing piecemeal repairs.
Typical references for this lineage point to roughly 1560–2179 cc displacement, 16-valve heads, and power bands near 85–177 kW, with ≈2006–2015 a useful era marker on many vehicles. Final specification should always be confirmed against your chassis record and under-bonnet hardware.
If your S-Max has had donor parts fitted, mention it — routing and mounting hardware can shift. The QXWB reference still anchors the long-block family while we sanity-check what is in the bay.
Whether you are a private owner or a workshop buying on behalf of a customer, the same rule applies — confirm the stamped lineage first, then compare options on equal terms.
