    It is possible it may be the starter motor, the DMF can break up over time and the swarf fill up the starter motor, a common problem on higher-mileage Mk3 Mondeos that have DMFs fitted

    If you can add the type of fuel (petrol or diesel) and engine capacity (CCs) it would help, as a 2.5 OR 3.0L petrol V6, 2.0L NA straight-four is very different from a 2.0 or 2.2L TDCI in many ways and "Mondeo"/ 2004 is not enough because of all the different types
