2016 Ford Fusion Intake Manifold

Asked by bankit3 Nov 01, 2020 at 06:49 PM about the 2016 Ford Fusion SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My wife has a 2016 Ford Fusion. Lately it started missing. She took it to
Autozone and they hooked it up. The readout that they gave her were PO303.
Their summary stated that in most cases, it needs a new intake manifold and
gaskets. The car has 122000 miles on it. Does this seem accurate? If so, what
should we expect to have to spend to repair.

P0303 means a misfire in cylinder #3. Are the spark plugs original at 122000 miles? Is so, you should replace all of them. That might fix your issue. They should have been changed at 100K. If you still have a misfire after replacing the plugs and clearing the code, I would look into replace the ignition coil on cylinder #3. You might have to remove the upper intake manifold to access the plugs. You don't need to replace the manifold, just the gaskets. You didn't state which engine you have in your Fusion. There were four options in that model year.
