Ford Transit 2.0 ecoblue timing belt replacement (wet belt)

[@fjodorsisa3962]

There are many videos on KZbin about replacing the belt on a Ford Transit 2.0 ecoblue. But this video is the best of all that I have seen on this topic. Thank you for your time and effort that you spent on creating this video.

[@diydaly]

👍 thanks

[@jacklifeonwheels]

Best wet belt vid I've seen on KZbin!!!

[@diydaly]

@@jacklifeonwheels thanks 😀👍

I’m saving this fella, this will be my Saturday night entertainment. The wife and the kids are at grandmas the weekend 🎬🚀🥳

[@diydaly]

👍 Nice one , hope you enjoy! 👌👌

​@diydaly hello buddy. I've commented on your channel before being a fan. I'm in need of your assistance. Does your office have a number I can call. My friend is a Paramedic, his Mini Cooper D needs a professional mechanic to look at timing chain, to see what damage has been done and to have a new one installed. Can you please assist him. A phone number to call you would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work buddy.

[@reecemanifold]

Fantastic video, loads of info! We really appreciate the time you put into filming this for us DIY’ers you have just saved me about £1200! Really appreciate it! Manny thanks Reece

[@joebiff71]

Just watched the full Vid.Thank you for the effort and time to let people like me know what to look out for and purchase etc.

[@samhoward9160]

I have watched a few of these wet belt replacement videos now and this is easily the best. Will definitely be doing it myself. FYI asked ford for a quote to do the job and they quoted £1950! 😮 Thanks for the vid.

[@neildean7515]

Given they are now needed more frequent servicing due to belt failures, thats a lot of money..

[@thebordercanopycompany8267]

What a great video. It’s the best one yet. We have two weltbelt transits (2019 and a 2020) , still only in the 30 odd thousands, but I’ve heard of low mileage failures. So, we’ll have to do them at some point in the near future.

[@neildean7515]

What a fantastic video and explanations are clear and understandable. Respect and great service to the ford Community..Really enjoyed.. thanks

[@gary19704]

2nd time watching going to change mine without the luxury of the ramps tho great informative video thankyou .

[@paulcoleman6339]

WHAT A GREAT Mechanic ,🤩🤩🤩🤩 I wish you would do work on my van, love my van. You Just never know if Mechanic’s ever do the work properly, but obviously you do. 🎉🎉🎉 great for my OSD🍺😂😂😂

[@adamski996fugazi8]

One of the best wet belt videos out there by far!, step by step ultra clear instructions 5 stars from me buddy 👍

[@tonymccarthy9273]

thanks for the video, certainly a very good tutorial for someone who has this model transit , and interesting for us hobby mechanics, thanks mate

[@diydaly]

Thanks for the comment mate , much appreciated 👍

[@Kombokiller123]

Amazing video but for the people who are going to try this make sure you check the vacuum pump also as they get blocked from the belt fibres and can mess your brakes up.

[@scottwilliams1094]

Fantastic video explaining everything in detail 👏

[@diydaly]

Thank you! 👍

[@miketherefurbisher8000]

What a fantastic video young man!! very well explained. "Many Thanks" ❤The channel 👌

[@diydaly]

Feedback Much appreciated! Thanks !😁

[@Lee-x8x]

Great Video, great job and thank you for explaining everything in detail. ⚒️

[@diydaly]

👍👍

[@johnnyoliveira1342]

The best video on you tube

[@anisoaragirnet]

Love it! It goes great through all the details❤ I have a Galaxy 2.0 the same engine and the procedure is 1 to 1 the same. Thank you very much for this video! I thought have a problem with a strange sound from the engine when I accelerate up to 2000 rpm it makes a noise like a damaged pully... but only between 2000-2700 rpm... what could it be? KM 211000. Thank you.

[@soulrider678]

Really good and informative video, just cant understand why they went for welt belts lol

[@diydaly]

👍👍

[@georgistefanovgeorgiev9235]

Una perfección. Gracias. A cuantos km.se ha cambiado la corella de este coche?

[@rapidogrouna]

Un grand merci chef tu un super technicien ❤❤❤

[@diydaly]

👍 thankyou

[@ozzylar]

Great video as usual

[@diydaly]

👍 thanks mate

[@kvpestcontrol]

I have a 19 plate. Never had an issue. Amazing van. Wet belt was done at 85k. Apparently the old belt was slightly swollen. My van does about 60 miles a day on motorway driving so always gets to temp. The issues lay with abuse, bad servicing and town driving. My mate has a T6 and no end of issues with the DPG from town driving. These vehicles need to be driving properly! Not like my Dad pottering around in his Fabia VRS 1.9 Diesel moaning about poor performance and issues. Wankers

[@ianmiddleton9668]

excellent video mate,well appreciated👌

[@diydaly]

Thanks 👍

[@SaripSalman-c2p]

Hi can you make a vedio replacing timing belt on ford raptor 2022 just like how you explain in this vedio xplease, I love your explanation.

[@kelkela97]

Great video, one question. What’s that bolt that some say breaks after doing this job ? There’s a bolt that you don’t need to touch but keeps breaking after wet belt replacement.

[@diydaly]

I’ve not had any issues , but I think it’s the fuel pump gear wheel bolt

[@RaifRaif85]

Proper job. What sort of cost are we talking about currently for this job?

[@diydaly]

Will vary a abit , but a good price would be £1000-£1200

[@marke293]

Thanks for sharing a very detailed video on this transit van Can you tell me if its possible to test for a snapped belt on these transit vans ?

[@WilliamBeattie-oj5sn]

Brilliant as usual..only thing is i was advised never to gun up crankshaft pulley..have had issues doing that??

[@diydaly]

Thanks! 👍👍 tbh mate I buzz em up all the time , never had any issues .. I do use decent powerful guns (Milwaukee / snap on electric & snap on air gun)

[@air_cooled_andy]

Cracking video mate, nice one. Does the wet belt tensioner ever start to rattle a bit after high mileage?

[@diydaly]

👍 Not that I’ve experienced

[@TWFydGluIFdhcmQ]

Great video. Have you ever had a crankshaft oil seal fail? I ask because I bought a timing cover with incorporated seal which Ford fitted and it leaked.

[@DazSheepy]

Amazing, detailed video :D

[@diydaly]

Thank you!

[@BillyThomas-p2q]

Very good job mate all in order 👍 😅

[@diydaly]

Thanks 👍

[@Jack-ns5zc]

Any idea of the torque setting for the bolt the the belt runs on next to the crank

[@diydaly]

I’ll try find out

[@trevormansfield6495]

Good instructional video. Thanks. I’ve not done one yet. What sort of time do you think I should allow?

[@diydaly]

👍👍 For the first one I’d give yourself a good 6 hours

[@Christophergriffiths1972]

Nice work 👍🏼

[@diydaly]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@ИгорьМедведев-э7д]

God bless you!!! thank you very much for your work!!!

[@diydaly]

You are very welcome

[@ryanolden5304]

May i ask, whst was the mileage on this van? And was this it's first belt change? 8 inly ask, as mine is a 2020 registered transit custom, and its only done 58,000 miles. Do you recommend changing it? Thanks.

[@absturzmann]

Hey Mate. Excellent Job. I watched it in fast forward for now cause aint got time in a Rush here. 2 quick things. How are these cam gears are tightened? No bolts in the centre in the cam itself?? And u took off the engine mount and did not support it anywhere. It's safe to hold it on the other itself?? Thx from Germany

[@Bubi0]

Hello I drive S max 2019 190 hp Ecoblue is the procedure the same as in this video ?

[@diydaly]

No this is different

[@robevans8625]

Has ford updated this belt to make it more resistant to falling to bits, compared to the belts fitted to the 1.0 ecoboost for the last ten years?

[@samhoward9160]

Hi, have you ever had any issues with the idler gear bolt snapping or coming loose? I have seen a few posts online saying that these have failed. I was hoping not to have to mess with this bolt as I don’t know the correct torque settings or procedure for tightening it up. A few theories are that people are possibly over tightening the bolt when turning the engine over as they’re using this bolt instead of the main crank bolt. Any knowledge you have on this would be greatly appreciated. 👍

[@diydaly]

Ive never had any issues tbh mate

[@Jack_JJS]

Great video, quick question do you film this video after work hours or on weekends

[@diydaly]

Yes mainly after work hours mate

[@marke293]

At 13.04 in the video is that the crankshaft sensor that can be seen ? Thanks

[@hank.marvin]

How long will this fix last? I'm hearing conflicting information about how long you should wait between replacing the belt?

[@diydaly]

Personally I’d say 6 years / 80,000 miles

[@hank.marvin]

@diydaly any idea if the aftermarket belts are holding up better than OEM ones?

[@diydaly]

@ no too sure tbh mate , I’ve only fitted OEM but haven’t heard much about any aftermarket belts

[@paulbrambly1230]

I asked Ford main dealer for a quote. When I queried why the price did not include oil and filter, I was told they put the old oil back in the engine.

[@diydaly]

You should always change the oil along side this job in my opinion

[@jacklifeonwheels]

Never use old oil how stupid

[@giannisf19]

Do you need a special socket to remove the crank pulley with the impact driver? And whats keeps the crankshaft from turning while using the impact driver.

[@diydaly]

No just normal socket , nothing needed to hold it mate .. decent buzz gun will undo it no problem

[@1981carlom]

Hi Where are you based? What mileage/age is it advised you to change please? Regards

[@Bubi0]

Does the starter motor also have to be locked on the right-hand side?

[@diydaly]

I didn’t as I was usually an impact driver, but it can be locked and the locking tools comes in the kit

[@PKOK72]

Is the oil pump worth doing whilst in there?

[@diydaly]

I’ve not done any yet mate

[@ianmiddleton9668]

is the timing belt directional on and marked for direction ? .Great video

[@ianmiddleton9668]

Does the timing belt have s direction of rotation

[@nnglnd]

That's gotta be a full days work there

[@billysalter8734]

When do you recommend do this how much mileage mine coming up to 55 thousand

[@diydaly]

Hard to say tbh mate I’ve seen some fail quite early on , if I had one I’d like to say 5 years / 60k

[@billysalter8734]

@@diydaly thanks for the info pal

[@jedi22ful]

Hi how much charge do all belts ?

[@diydaly]

FWD usually around £1100

[@kularace7351]

Thats a good vdeo on that job. What was the mileage on the van in the vid?

[@diydaly]

Thanks , only about 30,000 on this one

[@Philunited]

What would you charge for doing one mate

[@diydaly]

FWDs are usually around the £1000 area mate

[@Mcintechmobilemechanic]

How about the water pump

[@alfasud]

Top!👍

[@diydaly]

👍👍

[@MT-ej8zx]

Hi I’ve just purchased a 21 plate transit custom trail. Unfortunately didn’t come with any service history after around 60k it’s now done 105k. I was told it may not need the wet belt doing as the engine had changed on a 21 plate, can anyone if this is correct? I’ve got it booked into a garage to get it done but thought I’d just clear this up in case it’s not required

[@diydaly]

👍 yeah I definetly advise getting it replaced mate

[@Stillbusy105]

Yikes, seems a lot of work for a cambelt! How often do Ford recommend this, and what do you recommend?

[@diydaly]

Ford have now just altered the interval to 100,000 or 6 years which ever comes first .. personally with all the issues I’d say 5 years / 80,000 miles

[@Brixio-world]

cost of repair?🤔🤔

[@diydaly]

Will range from £1000 - £1500 depending on labour rates / quality of parts used etc

[@drosky26]

Compraria una Ford transit custom??

[@diydaly]

For my sins I’ve actually just bought one!🤣 tbh there decent vans once the wet belts been done , my only worry is the injectors now as the seize in and are a common failure

[@craigporter-vq9ig]

Where are you based?

[@adamjones1914]

They make engine's to fail. Now stick to old school timing chains. 😂😂

[@angodevchakraborty5596]

Hello, I watched every video of your KZbin channel very carefully, very good. But your channel views are low. Because the channel's videos are not reaching people, views are not increasing and keywords are not being rehashed. As a result the views are very less. If you want I can see your problems for free

[@kennymartin1456]

You replaced the manufacturers multi step procedure for crankshaft bolt installation with a buzz gun blast because you didn't have the correct locking tool?? Really?

[@BluesyBor]

All that work to replace a crucial element that's wearing out faster than it should be... That's what I call a "failed design"!

[@richardzedman1160]

this is the reasone im not buying one what a joke

[@davidcook5954]

Stop talking and just show what to do

[@air_cooled_andy]

Comments like this really p**s me off. This is a very, very good informative video, what did you want, some classical piano to listen to without a thorough explanation? I’ve looked on your channel which offers nothing of any value to anyone.
