Nothing to do with your transmission ... more specifically the eighth position in your VIN, which you can find on your dash and a number of other places on your car, indicates the type of engine that your car was built with ..

If the 8th character in your VIN is a "3" then your car has the 2.0 litre DOHC Zetec engine ... if the 8th character is a "P" then you have the 2.0 litre SPI engine.
