Ford Transit 2.0 Diesel Ecoblue Timing Belt Replacement

[@jamesmackie9292]

Great video mate..chuckled at how many times you said as you can see though haha!

[@karlsanderson8127]

Crazy how fords have went backwards with reliability

[@leefurniss]

The engine is designed to fail early in it's life, the wet belt, stretch belts, friction tensioner and ill advised service plan make this engine a disaster from day one. But you made a great video on how to repair some of this, keep up the good work 👍

[@tompitchercooke7057]

Wicked seeing you do this. My belt broke recently and completely ruined my engine. Got to replace the engine. I wish Ford would tell people about known problems so we could service them properly.

[@enkamotors7012]

Some of these vans are under recall by ford and if it snaps they put a new engine free of charge

[@shanmcneil5271]

I just recently received a letter from ford requesting me to make an appointment with them to inspect the belts condition. Has to be changed that day if it fails the inspection.

[@johnmchardy4502]

Ford are going to stop handing out free engines very quickly there will be much stricter measures on what qualifies for a replacement by ford but its still there fault they designed such a crap engine in the first place

[@Metal05]

But that’s not the point. How much hassle is it to get a new engine in it. @@enkamotors7012

[@hedydd2]

It is actually an excellent engine as long as the timing belt is changed in time. I believe that there is now a modified belt that lasts longer while the oil change and bel change intervals have also been shortened.

[@Metal05]

Not that great, mine is getting a new engine and it’s not even two years old, followed Ford service intervals to the letter. In my view they are shite wet belt crap. Ford offered me £50! Yes £50, this is costing me in lost revenue through work, and other associated costs.

[@hedydd2]

@@Metal05 They are under warranty and the new engine will not directly cost you. Or shouldn’t unless they charge for fluids. Your new engine should have the modified parts.

[@Metal05]

Read my reply. Costing me so much money in other ways! I lost three boiler installs waiting for a courtesy van, I lost money on an event as I didn’t have wheels £500, need I carry on? I’ve read only tonight someone is on their 3rd engine on another forum. They are shite.@@hedydd2

[@SEANPOL203]

From what year was the belt covered by Ford Warranty and for how long from new? I have a 2020 290 and was wondering could get belt changed to be on safe side

[@Metal05]

This isn’t the point. I get what you’re saying though. So far being self employed I lost three major jobs because I didn’t have my van with tools in it. The hassle of losing time on other jobs phoning Ford U.K. lost time and productivity, this amounts to about £5k. It’s diabolical from a company Fords size. I will never purchase this crap again. I hoped and prayed it would be ok. I didn’t even want a Ford custom. I’d ordered a VW, but they cancelled it due to chip shortage and loom issues around covid time, 🤷🏼 go home to your partner or bank manager and say you’ve lost £5k this month! @@hedydd2

The bolt is for waterplug.

Hi I've similar van mines an 18 plate done 68,000 mile I've heard some real horror stories about belt failure on these vans so good to see How its done and the mileage u advise to get it replace. How much roughly would I be looking to be paying.

[@enkamotors7012]

They say 150,000 or ten years whichever comes first, but no harm getting it done earlier for a peace of mind. Some of these vans are under recall by ford and if it snaps they put a new engine free of charge

[@SEANPOL203]

Which vans are in recall please??

[@bbailey4383]

Can you tell me how/where you supported the engine to take the mount bracket off?

[@enkamotors7012]

Use a jack from underneath put a wooden block and jack from gearbox closest point towards the engine. Be careful as there’s a sensor close underneath near the jacking point

[@johnbrown2363]

Hi great video. How many miles before replacement I've got a 2019 has done 80000 thank you

[@enkamotors7012]

100000 miles or 72 months

[@Xan-by1hb]

Can you just take the sump off to check for delamination of the belt or do you have to have the belt etc done aswell

[@enkamotors7012]

If you take off the oil pump as well as the sump then you’ll be able to check a part of the belt but you won’t be able to see the whole belt in order to determine if there is damage, and if so the extent of it. Hope that was helpful

Is the crank on a keyway ? So not free running like the old petrol fords? Can i just mark the bottom and pin the cams aye?

As long as your timing belt hasn’t snapped, you can go ahead, pin the camshaft and mark the bottom 👍

Hello mate, does fuel pump needs to be locked/timed on these engines ? Thank you

[@enkamotors7012]

As long as the fuel pump isn’t removed no need to lock whilst doing cam belt change

How much cost to replace timing belt for 17 plate 130 hp euro 6 same body like this?

[@hedydd2]

In the Ranger it is a simple job that takes no longer than changing many dry timing belts. There is less room and therefore it is more difficult for transverse engines fitted to front wheel drive Transit.

[@prawny12009]

Is the lower pulley floating? And do they need a torque multiplier to tighten the bolt back up?

I hear there is a recall by Ford who will do engine replacement if you have a failure due to belts under 100k miles.

[@enkamotors7012]

The recall is only for the 2017 models I believe. For the 2017 model they replace the timing belt and if the timing belt has snapped, they change the engine also

My vans been in ford for a week now got it recovered to my usual garage and they said it was cam belt but could be under a recall so I called ford and they said they’d look at it so recovered it to Ford and haven’t heard anything back yet , from what I’ve hearing though from folk with similar issue it’s 8k for new engine😢

[@enkamotors7012]

Yes Ford does do a recall on these engines but not every vehicle is covered on the recall so they will have to check.
