Question 1

How much does a Ford Transit or Ranger engine rebuild cost?

Accepted Answer

Our complete "removed, rebuilt and re-fitted" service starts from just £2,495. The exact price depends on the model, engine variant and the extent of the damage. We always give an honest, no-obligation quote before any work begins.

Question 2

What does "removed, rebuilt and re-fitted" actually include?

Accepted Answer

We remove your failed or worn engine, strip and rebuild it completely in our workshop with new pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, seals and timing components as required, then re-fit it into your vehicle with fresh oil and filters. It is a genuinely complete service.

Question 3

Which Ford Transit engines do you rebuild?

Accepted Answer

We rebuild the full Transit diesel range including the 2.0 EcoBlue (1,995 cc), 2.2 TDCi Duratorq (2,198 cc) and 2.4 TDCi Duratorq (2,402 cc). We also cover the Transit Custom, Connect and Courier engines.

Question 4

Do you rebuild Ford Ranger engines?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We rebuild the 2.0 EcoBlue single-turbo and bi-turbo (1,996 cc), the 2.2 TDCi (2,198 cc) and the 3.2 TDCi five-cylinder Duratorq (3,198 cc).

Question 5

What is a wet belt and why is it a problem?

Accepted Answer

A wet belt is a timing belt that runs inside the engine, bathed in oil. On Ford EcoBlue engines the belt degrades over time and sheds material that blocks the oil pickup, causing oil starvation and severe engine damage.

Question 6

My wet belt has snapped - can you help?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A snapped wet belt usually causes internal damage that requires a full rebuild. We diagnose the damage, rebuild the engine and re-fit it from £2,495. Do not attempt to start the engine again, as this can cause further damage.

Question 7

How long does an engine rebuild take?

Accepted Answer

Turnaround varies with the model and parts availability, but most rebuilds are completed within five to seven working days once the engine is in our workshop. We always aim to minimise your downtime.

Question 8

What is the difference between a rebuild and a reconditioned engine?

Accepted Answer

A rebuild restores your own engine to as-new tolerances. A reconditioned exchange engine is one we supply ready-to-fit on an exchange basis. Both use quality parts and are built to the same standard.

Question 9

How do I know which engine my van has?

Accepted Answer

Just give us your registration number and we will identify the exact engine variant and engine code for you. Getting this right is essential to a correct, long-lasting rebuild.

Question 10

What signs mean my engine may need rebuilding?

Accepted Answer

Knocking or tapping noises, blue smoke, low oil pressure warnings, loss of power, heavy oil use, overheating, or a snapped timing belt are all signs.

Question 11

Which areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

We cover the whole of the UK, with workshops in the North, South and Midlands.
