Using only genuine Ford parts, we ensure your van remains reliable, safe, and ready for work.

Timing Belt Issues on the Ford 2.0L EcoBlue Engine

Many Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Tourneo vans with the 2.0-litre EcoBlue engine may be affected by premature timing belt wear or delamination. This is largely due to engine oil dilution and degradation, which can occur in vehicles subjected to frequent short trips, long idling periods, or inconsistent servicing intervals.

Ford UK has recognised that these conditions can significantly reduce the service life of the timing belt, putting vehicles at risk of sudden failure long before the original service interval. As a result, Ford Motor Company has now revised the recommended cambelt replacement interval to:

• 6 years or 100,000 miles – whichever comes first

Ignoring this revised timing belt interval could result in serious engine damage, potentially requiring a full engine rebuild or replacement.
