On the latest Duratorq 1.4 TDCI engine, you reach it from the top. To the right of the engine block is an air intake pipe that runs to the front of the fan. a single screw above the fan holds it in place. Take out the screw and pull out the end of the pipe away from the fan and pull and unclip the air intake pipe at the connection next to the engine block. Underneath this you will see something that looks like a small 2nd World War type bomb with a black plastic head. Prepare for a big oil spillage or leave the car to stand overnight. Use a size 27mm socket to undo the black plastic cap. The paper oil filter comes out with it, just unclip it and clip in the new one. Use a size 21mm socket to undo the oil drain on the sump. A 15 minute job, was really easy when I realised the metal filters are no more.
The starter motor on a Ford fiesta 1.4 tdci is located on the side of the engine. Look directly where the engine is bolted to the bell housing which contains the clutch. It can be easily visible if you are under the car itself.

Yes TDCi is a diesel engine
A Ford Fiesta 1.4 tdci comes in many models. You can find this type of car in a 2 door, 4 door, hatchback, or mini van.

It is just below of the fuel filter
It contains no R12 Freon. Freon has not been used for years.
Depends on the year or type of diesel engine. The older engines had a cannister filter whilst the latest Tdci has a replaceable paper element.
On the Diesel Fiesta you need the 5W-30 Ford Motorcraft oil, or any other good brand of fully synthetic motor oil with the 5W-30 specs. You need the correct filter for your model of diesel engine Fiesta. The old 1.8 straight diesel used a metal cannister filter, whilst the later Tdci Duratorq engines have a paper element filter in a plastic housing (looks like a bomb or a fat plastic bottle with a hexagon cap) on the side of the engine block.
