68 plate transit issues

Postby Potter1982 » Mon Jun 03, 2019 11:32 pm

Hello I’ve had a few issues with a ford transit, just seeing if they are common or not.
Has had about 7 engine oil changes in 41,000 miles
Various adblue malfunction errors and no start messages
Now it has got worse! a loud knocking noise turns out the crank has snapped so a local main dealer not going to say who but I wouldn’t take a wheel barrow there! replaced the bottom end and for a sh*t job. It came back with no oil but couldn’t check it as the dipstick was snapped off! Cable and pipes loose, parts missing. So I had it back for a day and done 110 miles. Now it’s back at the dealer having another engine fitted!!!

Yeah, I’d say that’s about right for a new mk8 and ford main dealer :lol:

We've got a load of 66 plates at work (euro 6 engines) and have had a load of problems similar to yours. Bloke at our local ford main dealer said there changing full engines week in week out.
