2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing for 6DCT250 Transmission

2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing for 6DCT250 Transmission

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing is a transmission clutch bearing designed for professional repair and servicing of the DPS6 / 6DCT250 dry dual-clutch transmission system.

The DPS6 transmission is Ford’s designation for the 6DCT250 six-speed dry dual-clutch gearbox. Ford service information describes the DPS6/6DCT250 as an electronically controlled, dry dual-clutch, automatic-shifting manual transmission.

Professional transmission parts listings identify 2CTB03BA as a DPS6 dual clutch bearing, making this reference useful for product identification and workshop sourcing.

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing is suitable for professional transmission workshops, dual-clutch specialists, gearbox rebuilders, automotive parts wholesalers and international transmission-parts distributors.

2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing Product Information

Basic product information:

Reference Number: 2CTB03BA
Transmission: DPS6 / 6DCT250
Transmission Type: 6-Speed Dry Dual-Clutch Transmission
Product Type: Clutch Bearing
Alternative Name: Dual Clutch Bearing / Clutch Support Bearing
Application: DPS6 Clutch System Repair

Ford workshop tooling documentation specifically refers to a dedicated clutch bearing used with the DPS6 transmission, confirming that the clutch bearing is a service-critical component within this gearbox family.

Customers should compare the original bearing and clutch assembly before ordering.

Function of the DPS6 Clutch Bearing

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing forms part of the clutch support and engagement system inside the DPS6 transmission.

The DPS6 gearbox uses a dry dual-clutch structure. Instead of a conventional torque converter, the transmission relies on two clutch paths to manage power transfer through different gear sets.

The clutch bearing helps support controlled movement and load transfer within the clutch mechanism.

Its operation is closely related to:

• Dual clutch assembly
• Clutch actuator mechanism
• Clutch forks
• Transmission input shafts
• Release components
• Clutch support structure

Because clutch-system components work together under repeated load and movement, correct bearing condition is important for reliable operation.

DPS6 / 6DCT250 Dry Dual-Clutch System

The DPS6 is also known as the 6DCT250 transmission.

Professional service information describes it as a dry dual-clutch gearbox using electromechanical clutch and gear actuation rather than the hydraulic clutch-control arrangement found in some other dual-clutch transmissions.

This distinction matters because parts from other dual-clutch platforms should not automatically be treated as interchangeable.

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing should therefore be selected specifically according to the DPS6 / 6DCT250 clutch configuration.

Clutch Bearing Condition During Repair

When the transmission clutch system is disassembled, technicians should inspect the bearing carefully.

Possible inspection points include:

• Bearing smoothness
• Rotational resistance
• Abnormal noise
• Seal condition
• Surface damage
• Excessive play
• Contamination

Ford’s DPS6 service guidance specifically warns that incorrect clutch removal procedures can damage the bearing seal and lead to abnormal noise, vibration or premature clutch/input-shaft problems.

For this reason, careful handling during clutch removal and installation is important.

Possible Signs of Clutch Bearing Wear

A worn or damaged bearing may be associated with symptoms such as:

• Abnormal clutch-area noise
• Vibration
• Rough bearing movement
• Transmission noise during operation
• Clutch-related mechanical problems

However, these symptoms do not automatically mean that the 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing is defective.

Similar symptoms can also come from:

• Worn clutch assembly
• Damaged clutch forks
• Input shaft bearing problems
• Incorrect clutch installation
• Flywheel issues
• Other internal transmission components

Professional diagnosis should therefore be completed before replacement.

Relationship With the DPS6 Dual Clutch

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing works directly with the transmission clutch system.

The dual-clutch assembly transfers engine torque into the two transmission input paths.

The bearing and related release components support clutch movement and mechanical operation.

During clutch replacement, technicians should inspect the complete surrounding system rather than replacing only one component without checking related parts.

Relevant components can include:

• Dual clutch assembly
• Release bearing
• Clutch forks
• Input shaft
• Clutch actuator motors
• Fasteners and retaining parts

This helps reduce the risk of repeated transmission removal.

Difference Between Clutch Bearing and Clutch Kit

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing is not a complete dual-clutch kit.

A complete clutch kit may contain the main dual-clutch assembly and additional release or installation components.

This product is the bearing component used within the clutch repair system.

In simple terms:

Clutch Bearing = Individual clutch support/release component

Dual Clutch Kit = Complete clutch assembly or larger repair package

Professional buyers should confirm whether they require only the bearing or a complete clutch replacement kit.

Professional Installation Recommended

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing should be installed by technicians familiar with DPS6 transmission repair.

The clutch system requires proper removal and installation procedures.

Before installation, technicians should inspect:

• Original bearing
• Bearing seal
• Clutch assembly
• Input shaft condition
• Clutch fork system
• Mounting surfaces
• Related retaining components

The bearing should be handled carefully to avoid damaging the seal or contact surfaces.

Ford’s workshop guidance uses a dedicated bearing protector tool during DPS6 clutch servicing, which highlights the importance of protecting the bearing during repair.

Check Compatibility Before Ordering

Before purchasing the 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing, customers should confirm:

Reference: 2CTB03BA
Transmission: DPS6 / 6DCT250
Product Type: Dual Clutch Bearing
Original Bearing Appearance: Compare carefully
Clutch Configuration: Confirm before ordering

Because similar-looking bearings can exist for different transmission systems, the transmission model and original component should always be checked.

If compatibility is uncertain, customers can provide the original bearing photo or transmission information for confirmation.

For DPS6 Transmission Workshops

The 2CTB03BA DPS6 Clutch Bearing is suitable for professional customers including:

• DPS6 transmission repair workshops
• 6DCT250 gearbox specialists
• Dual-clutch rebuilders
• Automotive parts wholesalers
• Transmission-parts distributors

Workshops carrying out DPS6 clutch repairs may also require clutch assemblies, actuator motors, clutch forks and transmission control components.

These parts can be sourced together according to the actual repair requirement.
