What is the resource of engines ford transit 2.2. Ford engines live brightly, but not for long. Steering and transmission Ford

"How much does it cost to repair a Ford Transit engine"? Clients come to us with this question. Our service is professional renovation , diagnostics , chip tuning and service commercial vehicles and we know the answer to this question very well.

Let's figure out the price for repairing 2.2 - 2.4 liter Ford Transit engines.

Let's make a reservation right away that Ford 2.2 - 2.4 liter engines are also installed on cars of the Peugeot and Citroen concerns. Engines Ford Transit, Peugeot Boxer, Citroen Jumper were installed the same. The only difference is the ECU - electronic control units. The brains of the Peugeot Boxer, Citroen Jumper and Ford Transit are different, they have different firmware, different protection and they work with different software. We take all this into account and can flash or reprogram control units for all these cars.

Let's go back to the price diesel engine repair Ford Transit 2.2 liters or 2.4 liters.

What determines the price of a Ford diesel engine repair? The price of repairing a diesel engine depends on what happened to the engine in the first place. This is the first and most important thing, then comes the engine mileage and so on.

What can happen to a 2.2 liter 2.4 liter Ford Transit diesel engine?

The first and most annoying diesel engine oil starvation. This malfunction can write off a completely diesel engine for scrap. We will not describe the purchase of a new or contract Ford Transit engine here. We describe it HERE

In the most neglected case, the engine is completely worn out and everything needs to be changed, piston, seals, liners, and so on.

Second - Ford Transit engine overheating when the Ford Transit engine overheats, all parts of the Ford Transit engine are also affected. And the destruction depends on the degree of overheating of the Ford Transit engine.

The third is piston burnout Ford Transit 2.2 liter 155 horsepower. They burn both on Ford Transit 2.4 liter engines and on Ford Transit 120 horsepower engines, but on 155 horse engines this is a real disease. And the engines are pouring in one after another after the guarantee almost immediately.

And so we went:

Or by filling out the feedback form:

The seventh generation of the popular representative of the Ford 300S series under the code V184 / 5 in the back of Kombi (M1) was released in 2006 and successfully continued the traditions of previous Transits. Its popularity is evidenced by the fact that a VAN bus was produced on its basis, a commercial version of Custom, as well as an economical and environmentally friendly version of CNG that runs on methane. There are both front-wheel drive V347 and rear-wheel drive V348 modifications.

Regardless of the fact that this Transit was produced not only in Germany itself, but also in Turkey, this did not particularly affect the build quality - no additional Ford Transit problems were identified. It is distinguished from previous generations primarily by richer equipment, which includes not only the ESP electronic stabilization program, but also the HLA hill start assistance system. You can also note a high level of safety and maneuverability, and of course good visibility from the driver's seat.

Disadvantages of the 7th generation Ford Transit

The main disadvantage and disadvantage of Transit VII can only be called expensive parts and not quite a good interior with cheap and creaky plastic. Not everyone will like the lack of an armrest and the unfortunate, or rather inconvenient location of the seat belt buckle. The button for controlling the clock and the computer turned out to be just as inconvenient, and the pedals were strongly clamped between the wheel arch and the dashboard. many annoying fan noise at high speeds and too long warming up the cabin, in winter you only have to dream about.

Operation and shortcomings of the engine, fuel system Ford Transit

2.2 TDCi engine of the Duratorg family with a power of 155 hp. is distinguished by high reliability, trouble-free operation and good economy, consumption will not exceed 8 liters of diesel fuel on the highway and 12 liters in the city per 100 kilometers. This power unit also boasts good torque, which is especially important for the transport of goods. However, this very moment is possible only at high speeds, and for some reason the thrust disappears at low speeds.

The disadvantages of 2.2 TDCi can be written down as its unwillingness to work at low temperatures, in other words, it simply stalls when driving without warming up in severe frost and instantly cools down when stopped. Therefore, in winter you have to thresh for days if you have to work around the city, and this is already additional fuel costs. In addition, he turned out to be very picky about the quality of diesel fuel, the cetane number of which should be at least 50 - 51 and the amount of water in it should not exceed 200 mg / l - this is a typical drawback of most diesel cars, for example. I’ll make a reservation right away that in no case should you add any additives to the fuel, it will only get worse.

I strongly recommend installing crankcase protection, which can be easily damaged due to low ground clearance. Protection from below is also needed so that dirt does not fall on the drive belt pulley and does not disable it ahead of time. One thing is not clear - why is it not installed at the factory, knowing all these nuances?

If idle speed starts to float, it means that the EGR valve - the crankcase ventilation system - is clogged, this happens quite often.

Little and antifreeze

Engine oil changes every 20-25 thousand kilometers, the manufacturer recommends Castrol 5W30 API CH, ACEA B5 with WSS approval - M2C-913C. If you use 5W40, then the replacement time will have to be reduced to 15-20 thousand km. At temperatures not lower than -20 ° C, 10W40 ACEA B3 can also be used, but again, the replacement time can be reduced to 15 thousand kilometers. If you use oil from another company with the same tolerances, you will have to change it after 10-15 thousand km, but in any case, do not add any additives to the oil, diesel Duratorg does not like this.

Silica-free antifreeze specification Ford Motorcraft Super Plus WSS-M97B44-D changes after five years of operation, it is an analogue of G12 red.

And the last thing about the engine - beware of garage craftsmen, restoring a diesel engine after their intervention will be very expensive.

Sores in electrical equipment Ford Transit since 2006

There are few shortcomings and sores in electrical equipment. Firstly, when the wipers are operating, their relay clicks quite loudly, and secondly, the headlights are too low, which is why they get dirty very quickly. Well, even sometimes the head unit refuses to read CDs, and the Transit central locking does not respond to opening with a button.

Nothing can be done with the radio, if only the disk is replaced, and the central lock is restored after opening with a key, these are the so-called Ford Ftransit factory glitches. The fuse and washer reservoir pump do not differ in durability; there should be no more problems with the electrician.

Steering and transmission Ford

In steering, not everyone likes a small and uncomfortable steering wheel. Steering rods must be replaced after 80 thousand km of Ford Transit operation, usually after this run the steering wheel play and knocks increase when cornering. For this work at the service center you will be charged at least $ 430 with the cost of the rods.

The VXT75 manual transmission with a five-speed gearbox and LHD FWD drive has no particular flaws, with the exception of gearbox oil seal leaks.

Disadvantages of the Transit brake system

There is a design flaw in the brake system. This concerns the hand brake, which for some reason does not release the first time and, when tightened, catches a decorative trim.

Brake pads are enough for 40 thousand kilometers, but they need to be changed only for original Ford ones, non-original pads squeak and increase the stopping distance. The front brake discs can withstand up to 140 thousand kilometers, and the rear ones even more - 170 thousand kilometers, their cost fluctuates around $ 220 for the front and $ 210 for the rear.

Suspension and chassis operation

The suspension on the seventh Transit isn't much fun, it's unfortunately quite stiff and not very reliable. Only stabilizers withstand the longest, which will have to be changed after 80 thousand kilometers, the rest of the consumables are even less.

Chassis as a whole without problems, but the spare tire was placed under the body, not a very good solution. In the case of a wheel replacement, you will have to get dirty until you get it. Pleased with the resource of wheel bearings - 150 thousand km, not bad at all.

Other disadvantages and sores Ford Transit

The body boasts a durable paintwork, a large load capacity and an efficient climate control system. But there are more than enough shortcomings in the body. Firstly, the low clearance, as mentioned above, and secondly, the unfortunate location of the washer reservoir in the front bumper opposite the wheel. Even with a slight frost, the liquid freezes from the headwind, so I advise you not to dilute it with water when refueling.

The sliding door lock is located very inconveniently, and the other doors open at too small an angle. Rear-view mirrors do not fold tightly and are prone to shaking in the body, which impairs visibility.

Separately, I would like to warn about washing the car in winter: you can wash it, but only with subsequent drying, otherwise the doors will freeze tightly and when you try to open them, the door handles break. Low-hanging hoses, which are easily damaged, as well as constantly clogged washer nozzles, require constant monitoring.

The rear door lock and its flexible guides, which easily bend at large opening angles, do not differ in durability. And finally, a recommendation regarding the VIN number, which is stamped in the right wheel arch from the inside next to the shock strut. Over time, it simply rots, so that later there are no problems with registration, it is worth covering it with a good layer of anticorrosive.

Ford Transit is a family of cargo vans, flatbed vehicles, chassis and minibuses, which are produced in European countries. For 40 years, the car has been one of the most sought-after light commercial vehicles in the Old World. The incredible popularity of the model is evidenced by the fact that in the spring of 2009 the company assembled the 6 millionth copy of this family.

The latest generation of Ford Transit is a set of automatic assistants, an advanced line of Euro-4 engines, recharging systems and interesting innovations that make this car even more reliable and economical, qualitatively distinguishing it from competitors.

Video review

Model history and purpose

The Ford Transit is one of the oldest cars in the world. The first transport of this family appeared back in 1953 and was called the FK 1000. In 1961, the van was renamed the Ford Taunus Transit. There was no talk of export at that time. However, gradually the production of cars grew, and the model itself experienced noticeable changes. The debut car with the name Ford Transit was presented in 1965. The van was produced in England, Belgium, Turkey, and then in China. From standard commercial vehicles in Europe, the model was noticeably different. The wide track compared to competitors gave many advantages, so the Ford Transit soon became very popular. In 1978, the premiere of the second generation of the model took place, which at that time was already used not only in the commercial segment, but also in special services (Ambulance, Ministry of Emergency Situations, police).

4th generation

In 1986, the release of the fourth generation of the model began. The car was distinguished by a "single-box" body structure. The developers decided to abandon the strongly protruding hood (the windshield and hood were now located at the same angle). In 1992, the Ford Transit underwent a major facelift. The underbody has been completely redesigned and the distance between the axles has been increased. The changes also affected the design of bridges, where cylindrical bearings began to be used. The third Ford Transit stood out for its high maneuverability and speed, which attracted the interest of many customers. Single copies of this generation are now successfully operated on the Russian market.

5th generation

In 1994, the Ford Transit underwent a restyling procedure, receiving a new dashboard and front end (an oval cladding replaced the horizontal bar grille). A 2-liter engine from Ford Scorpio appeared in the line of power units. The third generation was sold in Europe until 2000.

6th generation

The sixth Ford Transit received a completely new look, borrowing the features of the company's corporate identity used in the Focus model. A new modification was offered with front and rear wheel drive (V185 and V184). Versions with the Puma diesel engine installed in the Jaguar X-Type and Ford Mondeo were also available. For top-end variations, an automatic gearbox was offered. At the same time, the manufacturer took care of the driver, providing the seats and the steering wheel with many adjustments that allow you to choose the optimal position. Due to the high landing achieved good visibility. The interior of the Ford Transit IV became larger and was designed for 8 or 12 passengers. Based on the standard version, the automaker has also prepared a smaller version - Transit Connect. The model was made a little smaller than the "progenitor", adding to this a modified appearance. The maximum load capacity of the steel model is 900 kg.

7th generation

In 2006, the model was restyled, which was listed as a new generation. The Ford Transit received new lights, an interior and a redesigned front end. The gearbox has been completely changed. Diesel units received the HPCR system, and gasoline engines were borrowed from the Ford Ranger. In 2007, the Ford Transit was named Van of the Year. A little later, the line of power units was updated again. It began to include exclusively motors corresponding to Euro 4. It is this variation that remains the most popular among Russians.

8 generation

In 2013, sales of the Ford Transit Custom and Ford Tourneo Custom models began in Russia. The first has become one of the best in its class due to the incredible safety and performance indicators. These versions are produced at the plant in Yelabuga (Russia).

Ford Transit is used to solve a wide range of tasks. Side modification is suitable for side and rear loading/unloading on "Euro pallets". The reinforced platform allows you to transport large loads without fear for the safety of the car. An easily removable awning will help protect against external factors. For transport services, Ford Transit models are ideal. Passenger options are actively used in taxis on suburban and intercity routes, providing maximum comfort and safety of transportation.

Ford Transit can be called a truly iconic model, as evidenced by the huge demand for this car.

Specifications

Dimensions Ford Transit:

  • length - 4120 mm;
  • width - 2250 mm;
  • height - 2800 mm;
  • wheelbase - 3749 mm.

The carrying capacity of the model is 2727 kg. The fuel tank holds up to 80 liters of fuel (a large tank of 103 liters is optionally available). One full refueling is enough for 6-10 hours of travel, since the average consumption of a car is relatively small:

  • combined cycle - 8.3-9 l / 100 km;
  • urban cycle - 9.5-10.6 l / 100 km;
  • extra-urban cycle - 7.6-8.1 l / 100 km.

The maximum speed of the car is 120 km/h.

Engine

Ford Transit has a wide range of powertrains (gasoline and diesel). A key feature of the motors available for the car is their efficiency. Advanced technologies have made it possible to significantly increase fuel efficiency and reduce emissions of harmful substances.

For the passenger version, the top is a modern 5-cylinder diesel 3.2-liter Duratorq TDCi unit. This is the last engine in the line of this series. Its torque is 470 Nm, power - 200 hp. Such characteristics allow it to be one of the most powerful in its segment.

The most common in the family is the line of 2.2-liter Duratorq units operating on a diesel engine (this is what is offered to Russians). These motors are designed to meet the stringent Euro-4 environmental safety requirements. The power of the installations varies from 100 to 155 hp. They have the ECO Pack environmental protection and fuel economy system, including:

  • speed limiter. Set to 100 km/h. If desired, it can be disabled so as not to degrade performance.
  • Auto-Start-Stop function (turns off the motor under certain conditions and instantly starts the motor if necessary).

Among other systems available in the engines of the latest generation Ford Transit, it is worth highlighting the progressive battery charge management function, an energy recovery system and a gear change indicator.

The most common problems associated with the unit:

  • consumes a lot of oil;
  • unstable operation (the car twitches for no reason).

Device

The latest generation of Ford Transit in terms of design compares favorably with most competitors.

The car has MacPherson type independent front suspension with coil springs with variable stiffness and gas-filled shock absorbers. A stabilizer bar is also provided. The rear suspension is made in the form of leaf springs with shock absorbers. The car successfully interact even with difficult coverage.

The model is equipped with a standard two-circuit brake system with booster and self-adjusting brake pads. Disc brakes are installed on the front and rear wheels.

The Ford Transit stands out for its dynamic interior that harmonizes well with the exterior. The dashboard of the car is very functional and includes everything you need. Management is quite comfortable and does not differ from the management of a conventional passenger car. Thanks to the power steering, the driver does not have to exert excessive force to move the steering wheel.

Safety

It is no coincidence that Ford Transit is one of the safest cars in this segment. The following systems provide high performance here:

  • BTCS - traction control with brake control;
  • front passenger and driver airbags;
  • durable ISOFIX anchorage installed in passenger seats;
  • ESP - system of exchange rate stability;
  • assistance system at the beginning of the movement on the rise;
  • seat belts with 3-point fixation.

Ford Transit in the basic version has rear-wheel drive. This arrangement has the following advantages:

  • better handling of a loaded car;
  • more comfortable movement with a trailer installed.

The car is equipped with a modern 6-speed Durashift gearbox with an increased service life. The gearshift lever moves absolutely freely. It does not feel vibration.

Ford Transit tolerates domestic conditions and low temperatures well, as it has excellent generator performance.

Flaws

Among the shortcomings of the model are the following:

  • rather weak metal. Despite a good coating, the car body often begins to corrode after 3-4 years of operation;
  • not the best soundproofing. According to this parameter, Ford Transit is definitely not a leader, since the noise level in the car is quite large;
  • narrow aisles in passenger versions of the car.

Ford Transit is a modern car that combines high levels of comfort, economy and environmental friendliness and is perfect for doing business due to its excellent technical characteristics.

The price of a new and used Ford Transit

In the Russian market, Ford Transit is represented exclusively by versions with a 2.2-liter Duratorq unit with a capacity of 125 or 136 hp. At the request of the client, the car can be equipped with front, rear or all-wheel drive.

In the "minimal" car has an average wheelbase and a relatively small set of equipment. The price tag for this performance starts from 1.906 million rubles. Additional discounts are available under the recycling program. Versions with a long wheelbase will cost more - from 1.906 to 2.336 million rubles. Modifications with an extended base (Jumbo) are considered the most top-end. Here the price tags start at 2.151 million rubles.

The market for used Ford Transit models in Russia is one of the largest. The cost of a used car varies widely and depends on the condition, year of manufacture, equipment and equipment. So, models of 2004-2005 on the go can be purchased for 230,000-340,000 rubles. Newer cars (2007-2009) will cost 400,000-650,000 rubles. Cars 2011-2013 will cost from 500,000 to 900,000 rubles.

Analogues

The Ford Transit has quite a few competitors in its class. The main ones include the Fiat Dukato and Mercedes Sprinter models.

In the middle of the last century, Ford Motor Company engineers were tasked with creating a comfortable van for the European market. The first car to wear the "Transit" emblem was the Ford Taunus, produced in 1953 by a car factory in Cologne. However, the truly first Transit was a second-generation car. Its release started in 1965 and continued until 1978. At that time, the Ford Transit was indeed a unique vehicle capable of transporting almost any bulky cargo.

Today, under the term "Transit" among motorists, it is customary to consider any car in the commercial segment with performance characteristics similar to Ford. For 40 years, the model has remained the best-selling in its class on the European market. The first five generations are reliable and practical machines for business and general use. Modern models of the 5th-8th generation, in addition to versatility, are also endowed with a unique appearance. Production of the latest generation began in 2013 and continues to this day. Before buying a van, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the resource of the Ford Transit engine.

Power plants

Throughout the entire period of production, the Ford Transit was equipped with power units designed by the English division of the company. The family of truck diesel engines was named Duratorq, however, some other models of light commercial vehicles were also equipped with similar installations. Initially, only gasoline engines were installed on the first generations of the van, but soon diesel analogues were added by the manufacturer.

Most often, Ford Transit in Russia can be found with the following engines:

  • 2.0L Duratorq TDCi;
  • 2.0L EcoBoost;
  • 2.2L Duratorq TDCi;
  • 2.4L Duratorq TDCi;
  • 2.5L Duratorq TDCi.

For a long time, a 2.0-liter gasoline engine was considered the base. In the first generations, it was a small V4 engine with a displacement of two liters of the Essex family. Due to the small dimensions of the unit, Ford was able to reduce the additional length of the car required to install the engine in front of the driver. Already with the release of the third generation, a 2.5-liter diesel engine with a direct fuel injection system becomes available in the engine line. The most extensive restyling Ford Transit has undergone in the fifth generation.

The model received an updated dashboard and a modified front end. At the same time, an improved powertrain appears: a 2.2-liter diesel engine with a TDCi high-pressure fuel injection system. In 2002, Ford first introduced an engine with innovative HPCR technology. The sixth generation is completely transferred to equipping with Puma-type power plants. The boost level of the 2.2-liter engine reaches 135 horsepower. The same engine was installed on the Mazda BT-50, known to motorists as the Ford Ranger.

Duratorq engine life

Duratorq engines include 16-valve TDCi units with an advanced Common Rail fuel supply system and a common fuel rail. These powerplants provide decent torque over almost the entire operating range, which contributes to the excellent load capacity of the Ford Transit, equal to a maximum value of 1.4 tons. The motors of the family are characterized by quiet, smooth operation with minimized noise and vibration levels. Diesel engines were made according to the classical scheme: a cast-iron cylinder block and an aluminum head. There are four valves for each cylinder. Also later, Ford engineers improved the ventilation system, which eliminates possible engine overheating.

Technical characteristics of Duratorq family units:

  • compression ratio - 17.5;
  • idle speed - 750 rpm;
  • the order of operation of the cylinders: 1-3-4-2;
  • piston stroke - 94.6 mm.

Duratorq series motors are designed with advanced technology and high pressure intake manifold. Power units meet all environmental requirements. In 2008, a special diesel particulate filter was installed to meet the requirements of Duratorq diesels above the Euro-4 standard. An innovative approach to the design of power units has allowed Ford to bring its developments to near perfection. Duratorq motors are not only economical, flexible and smooth in operation, but also resource intensive.

According to unofficial data, the resource of diesel engines is 300 thousand kilometers. The manufacturer himself does not comment on this. The practice of operating the Ford Transit shows that the figure of 300 thousand kilometers, conquered by a van, is a kind of minimum. The version of the car with a gasoline 2.0L EcoBoost engine is able to cover 350 thousand kilometers before the first major repair.

Typical malfunctions of Ford Transit engines

The operation of diesel units is possible thanks to the Common Rail system, which requires special attention and care. Duratorq engines are demanding on the quality of fuel and engine oil. To fully develop a resource of 300 thousand kilometers is possible only with high-quality car maintenance. At the same time, do not forget about using only original air and fuel filters that provide the highest quality cleaning of the fuel-air mixture. The injectors and injection pumps of diesel engines need additional care, as does the turbine in the turbocharged Ford Transit modifications.

One of the most common Ford Transit faults is chain jumping. The timing chain itself is designed for 200 thousand kilometers, which is considered a fairly good indicator of resource intensity. A chain slip can occur if the maintenance regulations of the machine are neglected, including, among other things, the timely replacement of the gas distribution mechanism drive. A chain jump leads to a breakdown of the parts of the cylinder-piston group, repairs will cost a tidy sum. Failure of the fuel system with high pressure fuel pump occurs mainly due to the use of low-quality diesel fuel. The pressure reducing valve suffers from bad diesel fuel.

Owner reviews about the resource of motors

Another problem with Ford Transit engines is the leakage of engine oil from under the engine sump and timing cover. Versions with a 2.4-liter engine often have problems with the water pump. In order to prevent serious damage to the main parts and components of the power unit, car owners are advised to warm up the engine for several minutes before driving. In versions with a turbine, it is undesirable to turn off the engine immediately after stopping, it is advisable to let the engine run without load for a couple of minutes. These simple, but extremely effective actions will only help prolong the life of the “heart” of the machine. What kind of malfunctions Ford Transit faces the owners of the van, and what is the actual resource of Duratorq installations, the owners' reviews will tell in detail.

Engine 2.0

  1. Matvey, Cheboksary. I have a 1996 car with a 2.0 petrol engine. The car has already covered 280 thousand kilometers. Details of the cylinder-piston group are in good condition, recently underwent maintenance: changed filters and engine oil. I prefer to fill in Castrol 5W-30, the manufacturer himself recommends the same substance. For all the time there were not so many problems with the engine. Changed the cylinder head gasket - oil began to leak. The seals also replaced the timing gear drive. There were no serious breakdowns, and I hope that there will not be. Transit confidently holds the road, with an atmospheric engine, the dynamics of the car are felt. On the highway, you can safely drive 110-120 km / h with minimal fuel consumption. Specialists at the service station said that the engine will still pass at least 200 thousand if I continue to monitor its condition. The actual resource of a two-liter gasoline engine is almost 500 thousand kilometers.
  2. Igor, Moscow. For a long time I was looking for a reliable car for business. The choice fell on the Ford Transit. Before purchasing a car, I was interested in how much the two-liter EcoBoost engine runs. Machine of the seventh generation of 2012 release. For six years, I wound 180 thousand kilometers. Why did I buy the petrol modification? Compared to a diesel engine, it has a much longer resource. Potentially, a Ford Transit with an EcoBoost engine can travel 500,000 kilometers or more. I do not dissuade anyone from acquiring a diesel modification. But judge for yourself: maintenance and repair of a diesel engine is many times more expensive. There is complex fuel equipment, if the Common Rail fails, serious problems cannot be avoided. We all know the quality of our diesel fuel. Almost one single unsuccessful refueling can disable the power supply system of the installation.
  3. Stanislav, Chita. 2004 Ford Transit with 2.0 DI T260 engine. Passed already 350,000 km. A hardworking car with an unpretentious motor. The car is extremely tenacious, twice got into an accident, but at least she had something. Traveled on the roads of Russia, Kazakhstan, passes everywhere, never failed. Oil does not "eat", it starts without problems in any weather. For all the time there were several minor breakdowns: the starter failed twice (it's his own fault, apparently), I also changed the coolant pipes, plus the replacement of consumables, timing chains. The power of 100 horsepower is enough for confident movement, both in the city and on the highway. The mechanical box works stably, there were no problems with it. I recommend this modification to everyone who is in search of a true "iron friend".

Ford Transit two-liter power units are time-tested power plants. Motors of the Duratorq family are well studied by craftsmen, so there are practically no difficulties in the process of repairing them. According to the reviews of car owners with a 2.0 engine, it can be concluded that in fact installations with a working volume of 2 liters pass at least 350 thousand, in some cases much more.

Engine 2.2

  1. Sergei, Moscow. The resource of a car is a delicate matter. For some, Ford Transit runs 500 thousand km, while others already have capital for a hundred thousand. I will not discover America if I say that in many respects the life expectancy of a Ford engine depends on the attitude of the owner and the quality of maintenance. Diesel 2.2L Duratorq TDCi is a very difficult unit. You don't put ten dollar high-voltage wires and cheap spark plugs here. The operating temperature is artificially increased in it, if the system depressurizes, it can easily boil. And the 2.2 engine does not like overheating. In general, an economical, high-torque and assertive engine that requires proper treatment. Personally, I'm driving a Ford Transit 7th generation 2.2 with 125 hp. passed 340 thousand kilometers. So far, the flight is normal.
  2. Leonid, Moscow. Ford Transit 2.2 of the eighth generation brought from Europe. Mileage is nothing - 150 thousand. During this time, only changed the timing chain. It is important to monitor her condition. If there is a suspicion of its stretching, urgently change it. This can be understood by the characteristic knock from the drive side during the operation of the unit. As for me, the 2.2-liter diesel is the best engine. Yes, it requires only high-quality oil and appropriate nutrition. I refuel at Lukoil, pour only Castrol oil - no problems. I think that with such maintenance, 400,000 km will easily pass.
  3. Andrew, Tula. For a long time I chose between diesel and gasoline modification. As a result, I decided and purchased a 2.2L Duratorq TDCi. After reading the specialized literature, I came to the conclusion that the maintenance of these two installations is practically no different. Diesel is powerful and economical. With a full load, the consumption increases by one and a half times, on gasoline it is immediately felt - it hits the pocket. The main thing is to fill in high-quality diesel fuel and recommended engine oil. Then there will be no problems. I traveled 250 thousand kilometers on my car - I only changed the chain and consumables.

Ford Transit 2.2 is one of the most reliable modifications of commercial vehicles. The 2.2-liter engine is capable of traveling at least 350 thousand kilometers. With proper maintenance, the figure reaches the mark of 450,000 km.

Engine 2.4

  1. Michael, Yekaterinburg. I have a Ford Transit 2.4 with 140 horsepower. The car was operated with a partner on the city route. The car was 18 years old. It appeared in the fleet about 5 years ago, in total it has covered 380 thousand kilometers. Oil is exclusively 5W30, with a different viscosity it is better not to pour. Even a dead engine starts up without problems in cold weather with a good battery. The compression in the cylinders was normal all the time, but after that the first problems came. Initially, it began to dig oil from the crankshaft oil seal, at the turn of 350 tyk, the piston rings were replaced. As a result, the motor worked another 30 thousand, and then jammed. We calculated the cost of repairs - it is unprofitable, it is easier to take a new installation in the secondary market.
  2. Yuri, Moscow. Ford Transit 2003 2.4 liter. The machine is often loaded under failure, pulling under 1.5 tons of cargo. Drove already 400 tyk, the engine is still peppy. Oil "eats" in moderation, you have to add only 1 liter per 20,000 kilometers. Over the many years of operation of various trucks, I can say that there is still no such engine that would not require topping up the lubricant. The car is serviced every 25,000 km. I change everything according to the plan with original spare parts. I use only Ford 5W30 oil. I wonder how long this engine will last.
  3. Alexey, Taganrog. Version with a diesel 2.4-liter engine. Cons: works loudly, sometimes starts poorly in frosty weather, complex power supply system, expensive repairs. The advantages are obvious - lower fuel consumption, engine speed. I would like to advise owners of Ford Transit 2.4 to monitor the temperature of the system. The motor does not like overheating, if the normal temperature is allowed to exceed, not only cracks in the cylinder head gasket can form, but also chips on the working elements of the engine. My 6th generation Ford Transit has already covered 380,000 kilometers.

Modification with a 2.4-liter power plant among motorists is very popular. If you stick to calm driving, change the oil and other components (rollers, chain, pump) on time, then the car will last more than 450 thousand kilometers before overhaul.

Engine 2.5

  1. Valentin, Novorossiysk. In our fleet there were several copies of the Ford Transit with a diesel 2.5 liter power unit. This is a very hardy and picky car. Of the minuses, only a weak timing belt can be noted. When it breaks, the rods will inevitably bend, however, they can be easily straightened with a hammer. But it is better not to save on belts. The belt does not differ in the duration of its service - 80 thousand limit. In general, this is one of the most reliable Ford Transit engines. Cars were operated on long-distance routes. One car covered 300, the second 400 and the third 600 thousand km.
  2. Vyacheslav, Irkutsk. Ford Transit 2.5 "Crab" is one of the most reliable engines. I myself have personally seen several long-distance transport vehicles with native nozzles and without overhaul, which have passed about half a million kilometers. The chain on it is tenacious - 200 thousand walks. Service is standard after 20 thousand km. It is important to install original parts, avoid cheap filters. Maintenance is relatively inexpensive, significantly less than Ford's competitors.
  3. Valery, Voronezh. A workhorse, the car is definitely worth the money. Breakdowns happen on rare occasions. The consumption is relatively small, the resource is huge: if you don’t try yourself, then the engine will pass 400-500 thousand. Parts are inexpensive and readily available. Here is everything that has been replaced over the years: the timing chain, rollers and pump, battery, starter, handbrake cable and hood, the paint on the body cracked, I had to repaint. There was plenty of trouble over the little things, but what car doesn’t do this? Best car I've ever driven.

The 2.5-liter Crab engine, compared to other installations, is distinguished by its resource intensity. There are not a few cases of a power unit running out of a resource of 500-600 thousand kilometers. The key to a long engine life is high-quality, regulated maintenance.
