Looks like 3000 euro job

Why would you run an timing belt in oil chain yes belt no

Shit box's on wheels

wet belts are not an never will be a good idea... years ago had a belt been contaminated with oil you had to bin it whether new or old.

One of the worst design principles of the internal combustion engine ever. I know I'll build an engine that combines a material that we cannot guarantee the life expectancy when submerged in oil with such a varied temp range. I guess the accounting depth thought when the engine self destruction we can profit from the sale of a new engine or a new vehicle. Almost commercial suicide. I just hope whoever signed this crap off for manufacture left a note before his/her death jump.

At least the sump is easy to remove than on a Ford Ecoboost.

Wet belts are a stupid idea. Even if they actually lasted the 150k miles the replacement is loads more expensive than an external belt, but with no advantages.

Transhit engine

why can"t ford bring this to the US? many wants this diesel

Ужасно

Some company on here has a fleet of about 25 vans 7 are of the road with blown engines in the US they are recalled but not in the uk appalling design

New serp belt wasn't available at the time of filming so for demonstration purposes, the old belt was refitted. A new belt was fitted before vehicle left the workshop. 👍

when the speakers have them cracks this wont fix it because the water will still find its way down the speaker ....rather buy aluminium adapter rings and new speakers to fix it

Why did you put an old belt back on

Hii, is this timing belt with oil like ford 1,0 ecoboost

I have the 2017 with 2.0 ecoblue wetbelt serviced by myself more regular than recomended with correct oil and filter, never noticed anything in the oil pan, ive done 58000miles with no other problems and this milage includes 2 none stop runs to spain 2000miles and same on return journey not missed a beat, ive just spoke to ford to trade it in for another he has one with 80,000 miles but said he would recomend changing belts every 60000 miles so he understood when i said i dont want it unless he takes £2000 of for the next belt change in 40000 miles i dont have that much in the van he said. I said to him your selling me something that states in the book that belts last 150000 miles so false advertising, nothing i can do he said. So i asked if the van has gone in for a recall then it shouldn’t happen again if you done some mods. Your asking the wrong person he said, i said no i’am asking the right person as your the one thats priced it and selling it to me with the promise it lasting all these miles between services. So all they can do is replace the belt on recall but thats not addressing the problem only extending it for another 60000 miles so its not really a recall its just an bloody service.its a con and i told him to fuck off i’ll get a transporter.

sorry i missed the mileage

How many hours work compared to a dry belt I wonder

Good video and explanation...thank you....

The wet belt engine & the electric vehicles will be the death of ford motors Remember the unbreakable ford banana engine Now we have a wet belt system that is shite & fords customer service is even shitter Thats a recipe for disaster in the kong term

Are these vans worth buying ,second hand ?

Une belle merde, la courroie qui beigne dans l’huile 🤢🤮🤮🤮

Amazing video, but what a pig of a procedure

Insanity

Great video but what advantages does a wet belt have over a standard set up or cam chain. Manufacturers seem to foist all these brilliant ideas on the unsuspecting public then run a mile when they go wrong.

This is yet another example of why ford are absolute shite when looking for a replacement for my mk2 focus estate 1.6tdci i avoided all ford made engines and bought the 2.0tdci (hdi) dw10 engine built in france by peugeot citroen and shes a bute smooth as butter not a wet belt insite

Proof that yet again design engineers have no clue regarding maintenance/ repairs on most vehicles . Closest most get to getting their hands dirty is ink from a pen 😳. Excellent video 👍🏻😉👏👏👏👏

Who ever designed this engine needs ****ed and oh lets put the oil filter on it's side. These strainers get blocked on all wet belt motors, Ford really must do better.

I did 40 years in the motor trade, to me, a rubber based drive belt partially submerged in oil does not bode well from the word go!

The Old 2.5 di Transit what's easily cover half a million miles and some on the original clutch I used to work on these vans 30 years ago if you are careful driver they would last forever unlike today's buckets of crap 2.5 di best Transit diesel engine ever😅😅😮😮😢😢😊😊😊

Ford what a joke my 22 plate 2 years old with only 35000 clutch failed now i am told it won’t be under warranty yet they fail to understand 3 year manufacture warranty is still in place

Other than putting back the badly cracked serpentine belt it was a good instructional video

Highly recommend Ben for Wet Belt replacement, because he goes the extra mile ensuring the job is done properly including overnight curing of the seals before adding oil etc. Also fair value. Bearing in mind this is a once in 100,000 task I wanted it done properly. Thanks Ben.

Wet belts….simple question…WHY..????

Seems ford want these to fail, my focus 72reg was collected for its first service with 11,000 miles on clock, I put a mark on oil filter before hand and checked oil colour, it was returned with same filter and oil looked the same as before service, I took it back and confronted them about this, they tried to tell me it had been done so I produced photos of filter etc , they took it back in and changed them telling me the mechanic had forgotten to do the oil change,

Same with my golf, i think its come from under carpet/floor seal. I will try this solution. Many thanks

It's not a ford transit its a ford costapacket😢😢😢😢😢

A wet timing belt, running in hot oil, what could go wrong?

Why when you have gone to all that trouble to remove a stupid idea do you replace it with ANOTHER belt. There are chain conversions available.

Try to tight with torque

Best example of doing a wet belt i have seen Thank you

Ridiculous to think putting a rubber drive belt in oil would be a good idea !. Come on Ford, what were you thinking ?. The idea of a timing belt on the outside of the engine was to make it more easily serviceable than an internal chain. Internally lubricated chains usually last the life of the vehicle (BMW not included), rubber belts degrade over time, usually from dry rot breaking them down. Ford had the wisdom here to combine the very worst parts of both and figured it was a great idea !. I guess sales of replacement engines for these things are doing very good business for them 😂😂. Interesting how, in the States, they were forced, by a class action lawsuit, to recall these things, at huge cost to them, but, here in the U.K., business as usual and most warranty claims get refused if not serviced by a main dealer because, they say, “they probably didn’t use the correct spec. oil” !. How to ruin a brand and lose customers……, bravo Ford.

This looks like a yearly job to me along with the service and later MOT. Ford are killing off the customer base and EV sales are dying, not a lot left for them to manufacture except maybe bikes with oil in the tyres instead of air.

ford destroyed ford.no blaming anyone else.its ALL their own cost cutting that killed ANY hope of them surviving.let them have what they EARNED.GREED supplies its own endings.

Hopefully there will be a chain sprocket conversion kit available soon.

I personally believe this is a deliberate design fault.

Worst design ford has come up with and they have made some bad ones. Use the wrong specified oil on this engine and it eats the belt away, bye bye engine.

What a bl@@dy silly idea.I was working with cam belts in the 70s and 80s and they were a stupid idea then.Why did Ford think that a belt made of rubber would be ok running in oil,and to what advantage.Cam belts are unreliable at the best of times, particularly if they run over replacement times, plus you get no warning as you do with a noisy timing chain.

All that faf for a belt?

I wish I knew how to do all that. Very impressed. I see a lot of these vans for sale at what looks like the mileage just short of this work needing doing. If you didn’t know you could buy the van and find the engine wrecked soon after.
