![How to change a front ball joint on the FORD TRANSIT MK7 [AUTODOC TUTORIAL]](/img/n.gif)
Nice video guys. BTW I actually fitted those seat covers last year after spending a few hours cleaning the seats after they got pretty dirty.
For info, the van died on a roundabout going from 2nd to 3rd gear at around 20-25mph.
Cheers bud we will get it sorted 👍
Exactly what happened to me, god knows why I’ve gone and bought another one!
@@TheCainabis Do the belts fail prematurely? Or can you avoid issues simply be replacing them at specified mileage?
@@jashugg Most engines about 75k I think these days. There are some recommended at 120k ish but would you want to risk it?
@@jashugg yeah change every 10,000 miles 😅😆 and replace everything else while you are at it!
It’s good to hear Chris talking more on camera and explaining his way of thinking 👍
Chris on camera! ..... 👀... It doesn't happen often, but it's gold when it does!
He is a great fountain of knowledge that hopefully we will all tap into as the channel progresses,
He is a great problem solver and a back street enginerd par-excellence... I loved the rotisserie, that was some great 'on the fly' thinking, but the idea is only half of it, you have to bring it to reality, and he does that so well
Rob and Chris are everything wheeler dealers wanted to be! 30 min episodes yes please.
Surprised Netflix etc have not offered you a slot.
Top blokes. Men of the people! Look forward to watching the videos after work with my dinner on a Monday and Wednesday.
It will be the vacuum pump on the end of the exhaust cam rob, there are common pal, the vac pump breaks and can cause the camshaft to lock up and that’s probably wot as ripped the teeth off. Good luck with the rebuild! I’ve know some people get away with just a new vacuum pump.
''Love it '' makes our day watching you and Chris , my son is Autistic and we sit together watching you guys, he is so switched on with Mechanics and engines thank you so much and we are in awe of both of you, the way you solve mechanical problems.
Did you really say "it's a bit stiff for me with one hand Chris " lol
You mentioned the long videos, they don’t seem long because they’re so interesting. The time flies past 👍
Thanks for keeping the videos moving. If the video is 25 minutes long but has loads of content then I'm happy to watch them in full. There are some people who would spend 25 minutes a piece on half a dozen videos of 'Collecting our new van', 'driving home with our new van', 'getting our new van in the workshop' etc. which whould be an absolute drag.
Keep up the great work, it's always good to see you working on something new.
26 mins good long video
Look forward to fridays content
The quiet man is getting involved
That was the quickest 26 minutes I have ever experienced. I really do like (Both) your attitudes when you do this work, because a lot of mechanics would decide “sod it, that`ll do!”
You two, decent blokes, really do “stand out a mile” with your honesty, integrity and determination. If you don`t know about something, you openly admit it and don`t try to bulldoze your way thtough.
“Absolute pleasure to watch and more power to your elbow, both.”
Moral of the story, change your cam belt on time, great video lads, keep up the good work 👍
From a Ford man with his 10th Transit I WILL not be having a new shape EVER.I keep my 63plate old shape forever!
Unfortunately if the area you live in is due to become a low emission /clean air zone - anything under a 2016 will not pass and be liable to a extortionate daily fee
@@Stop..carry-on soon there will be a zone where you will have to pay for breathing🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@@chrisdabrowski or farting
Rob I worked for Ford I’ve seen this so many times you need a new front cover valves piston belts super common issue with the 2.0 there is also a recall on the injectors so check to see if yours need doing
When the content is varied and interesting (and it always is), the time just flies by. Don't let the run time concern you too much. It takes as long as it takes. Work, wise words and some waffle. :) You can't go wrong. :)
Good work guys. You must remove the sump as well. The oil pick up might be blocking up.
The belts are de-laminating because of the excess diesel fuel that ends up in the sump post the DPF regen process.
You guys could do an hour long video and it still wouldn't be long enough. We enjoy watching you two so much always entertaining and educational and it's great to see a lot more of Chris's input too, not so quiet now think he's gradually losing his camera shyness. Brilliant content keep up the great work boys.
With the content you put in a video 26 mins is nothing because they never are boring, keep up the great work guys and looking forward to see how this one comes out
“We’re only going to take a look”… entire front end dismantled by lunch!! Cracking effort boys, you two don’t mess about!
Seriously... nicest guys in the motor trade I could listen to you two waffling all day😁😎
Ahhh guys you made me laugh out loud with the seat covers "A bit stiff for me with one hand Chris" 🤣 Sorry.... My bad!
Great video as always guys 👍
Great video and you could definitely bang an hour special out , we’re all gormed until it ends! Very interesting as usual and that 26 min flies by ... keep it up my favourite channel lads 👍
If my memory serves me correctly the cover that was glued in place are single use only. Great video as always. Regarding lengths of videos make them 2 hours long and I would still watch them. 👍
Rob & Chris, we love how honest you both are.
You definitely have one of the best UA-cam channels. :-)
Happy days.
The in depth footage which involves fault finding is interesting to me. I don't mind the longer vids. Can't wait for part 2.
Rob / Chris, I’ve only managed to rupture my Achilles’ tendon and have been told I’m off work for several weeks. For the last three days I’ve been watching ALL of your videos from the off. Great stuff. I was laughing at the early ones calling Chris, “my friend” lol. Still all great stuff. Now keep these coming as I’m off for ages and can’t come with This Morning and loose women !! Help me out lads. Stay safe
Really appreciate both you guys taking time out to produce these videos.
Content is fantastic and I/we really appreciate Chris coming out his shell and having more interaction.
Keep up the great work gents. Much appreciated 👏👏👏👏
I saw that it was 26 mins but it flew past. Didnt seem long as there was a lot to get absorbed in. Felt as if I was with you guys trying to solve the mystery. Its not the length of time, its the interest. I cant wait for the next one on this van now.
The first diesel engine I worked on was a snapped cambelt. A Bedford Midi, which was an Isuzu. It sheared the rockers and did no further damage. 50 quid for replacement rockers from a scrapyard, new head gasket and oil seals (oil had leaked on to the belt, which caused the breakage) and new belt. Timing tools were just bolts to lock the sprockets and a small piece of angle iron to lock the camshaft and it was sorted. Other engines can be totally wrecked once a belt snaps. How sensible to design an engine with brittle rockers! Looks like this one isn't too bad either, even though it wasn't the rockers. If only people changed cambelts when they should be changed.
The old Transit 2.5 Di used to break belts quite a lot, but you could usually get away with replacing a few bent pushrods, the occasional rocker and the lower belt cover where the belt had wrapped around the crank sprocket. Even after they went out of production, Ford was still introducing modified parts to try to make them more reliable.
The timing belt covers are service items and normally gets bent when removing. We always replaced them on the transits when doing belts.
Been involve in a few of these .. almost certainly you will have bent valves do cylinder leak down test also common for the crank to be US and when you reassemble make sure you understand how the pump is timed it will not run properly if its not correct Regards JF
Absolutely love the videos you guys make. Great to see how you assess and move forward with projects. The honest appraisal of work needed and attention to detail is brilliant. Thanks for taking a lot of valuable time to share your work absolutely brilliant 👍
Rob watching this superb channel is better than watching the television any day of the week.
It’s entertaining and informative viewing if you made them longer I would still watch them.
Keep up the great work rob and Chris and thank you. 👍😊
Chris grinning from ear to ear on his quad - luvvit!! Being ever the pessimist it makes me think the Transit front end comes to bits so readily because Ford knew it would be happening regularly lol.
Love the longer videos, Chris looks happy towing the van with the quad. I'm not sure if I like the idea of no key ways and press fit cam lobes, it sounds like a disaster waiting to happen, I may be wrong, and usually am! 😂
Worth checking the brake vacuum pump isn't seizing up as it could cause the belt to brake.
Great work guys . Love to see guys who take pride in their work.
Like how yous guys usually buy everyday stuff that we can all relate to and afford instead of other channels doing same makes all the time, I’m sure yous will have this up and running no bother 👍🏻
Would love an hr long episode 👍
Check for compression, and use a borescope. Look at the pistons and valves. It might not be bent, but could be chipped. You are at this stage... why not do this.
Can't wait to see Chris putting the new clutch in the quad bike ! .
Thanks guys, really enjoying the longer videos.
Longer the better as far as I’m concerned 👍👍👍
As far as I am concerned, the longer the videos, the better!
Yay, Chris smiling on the Quad 😍 great to see it being used. Cool man. Love how thorough you guys are and lucky bullet dodge 😎 hopefully replacing that top unit will solve the problem 😊
Great to see Chris on the quad having fun.. Loving the longer video's Rob and Chris.
This is definitely the best auto channel on UA-cam
Cams that are permanently fixed into the cover (not sure where these manufacturers are heading) trying to get as much money out of spares as possible by the looks of it! Not very environmentally friendly either. NICE VIDEO guys++👍👊
Rob & Chris, your videos are ones that I look forward to all the time. I thoroughly enjoy what you do and how you do it. You put a great deal of quality and integrity into your builds and repairs, which I very much appreciate. You do it right!! It definitely appears that you enjoy what you are doing and I will continue to watch as a subscriber. Please keep them coming. By the way, I don't think you charge enough for the vehicles you sell. The quality of your work and your time is worth more than what you typically ask and sell for.
Brilliant insight once again Rob and Chris, fantastic , once again can't wait to see the finished item
thank goodness i was around in the 70s with the Jack Regan style transits that you could work on with out headaches
Another excellent video, thanks for posting - very interested to see where this goes technically, and for mine I love the longer videos :)
Great to hear you and Chris talking about things, like the investigation stuff, excellent, thanks
Love these mystery videos where you're diagnosing the problem and working on the solution, the longer video the better I would like to also add! 👍🏻
More long videos please👍👍
Good excuse for chris to have a play on the quad
I never tire of your videos guys, the in depth involvement is brilliant, keep em coming, see you Friday. 👍
Love these Rob and Chris. What a great project that can be turned around for sensible money. Looking forward to the next!
Always look forward to next video and the longer the better
These newer transits are nothing like as reliable as the old ones, mate of mine has had two flywheels in three years. Apparently the ice cream van engines are bulletproof, probably because they're made to tick over all day.
Once you start, you just can't stop,great work Rob & Chris,
It's great to hear Chris talking more on camera and explaining the engine problems. If you spend three hours tinkering with an engine, you'll have enough knowledge and confidence to smile when you're done. Keep up the good work and I will follow you.
All the valves should be closed now if no damage. Put an air blow gun with a rubber nose cone into the injector ports one at a time. If valves aren't seale you will get air coming out either the exhaust ports or inlet port s depending on the valve damage
I'm sorry rob but I couldn't stop laughing with your comment it's a bit stiff for me with one hand Chris your gonna have to do that for me sorry 😂😂😂😂 sorry mate that tickled me 👍👍👍
I tried to be grown up and ignore it but I couldn't help but laugh!
So so funny...it wasn't ment to be smut im sure but lmao.......
Its a bit stiff for me.....lol
Nice work fellas looking forward to the 2nd video already along with the 2nd videos for so many projects! 👍 Not enough days in the weeks for these videos they are an absolute treat!
What a great video. Love hearing Chris’s thoughts and diagnosis of the problem. The quad bike is excellent, might have to get myself one of them!
Now the valves are off load with the cams out. Do a cylinder leak down test you will know if you have a further issue before putting it all back together 👍
That's a pretty good catch. The long wheelbase is a lot more unusual on the Transit Custom, pretty much all of them you see around are the short wheelbase so that could make it a much more desirable vehicle when it's all fixed...
The engines on these are a bit notorious for issues, but I understand that the issues have been sorted out now. Time will tell...
The old Vauxhall Family OHC engines used a separate cam carrier on top of the head too. In a lot of way it makes sense as issues with the camshaft won't kill the, much more expensive, cylinder head...
Great video guys and nice length, loved the diagnosis chat between you could listen to it all day👍
I like it when you guys do a vehicle autopsy. You’ve got a good way of explaining everything without a novice like me feeling thick! Cheers again chaps!
It doesn’t feel like 26mins long this end - it goes so much quicker! I second/third/fourth the requests for longer ones!
The reason people don't mind your videos being longer is because it feels like time warps by when watching them. Start to finish 26 minutes of SRUK feels like 10 mins to me 😁
Your videos could last for hours and I would still watch them. Top notch as always gents. I’m looking forward to the next instalment.
The time flies by when watching your videos, very interesting and look forward to the notification appearing. Be interesting to see how this one goes, sorry can’t help on the technical stuff but from a viewer point of view, never fails to grab my attention. Thanks Rob and Chris 👍
With the cam lobes pressed on like you say and if the valves are able to push the cam lobes having give in them at a certain pressure rather than bending the valve when piston makes contact from stripped teeth or a broken belt etc . I’d rather change the cam box assembly than pull the head off . Providing like you said you dodged a bullet with the valves and there seating etc . It’s still a lot off labour for a belt . Considering mileage I’d nearly keep going and whip the engine out . Check the clutch flywheel and rear main seal . And you’d have access to see and repair and weaps and potential leaks that are a pain to get at with everything reinstalled . The long way round is often the shortest way home . For the peace off mind you can confidently give warranty on resale
Great video! Can you pressurise the cylinders to see if the valves are sealed? Be a shame to put it back together and have a bent valve 👍
More more more - Rob you & Chris make ultra cool Vlogs packed with downtown earth tips & advice. Quality - the Biz !!👍
Lovely Jubbly, thanks for a really interesting video guys, engines have definitely change a lot in the past few years.
my last transit mk 6 2001 sold 2017 never missed a beat only sold as stopped working to old 70 years
I've a 2003 mk6
279 k on the clock
Starts at - 20
It loves the journey from manchester to poland it t akes the hills of Germany fully laden in her stride
Had to get a new key last week
I think I keep her
@@acorndogs904 she’s a keeper 😉😃
Well at least the seats on this one don’t need cleaning lol. Send the cambelt to your man in Turkey to have a new set of teeth mate 😉👍🏼👍🏼
You win best comment. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Always a learning experience on this channel!!! Love it!
Another awesome video... and like many others say we could watch you guys all day long.. thanks again.
Nice one lads 👌🇬🇧 don't these transit van's normally come with a free mig welder aswell 😀
Had one of these from new in 2017. Been towed to dealers 3 times, nothing but constant problems despite all servicing being done. Broke down for third time last week, apparently the cam belt has snapped so probably a new engine required. Thank God its leased !
Thanks Rob and Chris nice long video on the transit looking forward to seeing if you find anything else wrong with it and the rebuild of the engine 👌👍
Enjoy watching the content with the different vehicles you both get to work on. Hope you can both sort the problem out and it all goes back together as it was easy to take apart.
Guys just for your information
I bought a 2017 same van.
Timing belt snapped only 69k on the clock.
Fords gave me a new engine .
Cam-belt change interval 144k/10 years, they never make this as belts not man enough due to diesel in engine oil deteriorates the belt, you were also lucky to get injectors out, as normally seize in.
Nice work Rob and Chris,great content on this Transit Custom, very small engine bay to sort out.but got to the problem with the front off.
Great vid guy’s nice to see they’re getting longer, love seeing all the detail as your going along and nice to see Chris getting in the vid and explaining thing’s, you guy’s make it look so easy and you always let us know what new parts your putting on which is really good, can’t wait to see the next.
Longer videos is fine by me! 👍👍
Good luck with this one guys, my local Ford main dealer has about 20 blown engines behind the workshop from this model Transit. The mechanics hate working on them.
Rob , we listen to you for 26 minutes , poor Chris has to listen to you for 8 hours every day , no wonder he sends you out to buy bits every day 🤣🤣
Great video guys enjoyed that when ordinarily i would not watch a video about a transit engine fail! I like the fact you and Chris are like a couple mates on my driveway helping me to sort a problem down to earth guys with great screen presence and are well versed in your craft. Keep up the good work.
Can you not pressure test the cylinders by putting an air line (blow gun with a rubber tip to seal) on the injector port and listen at the exhaust and inlet for vale leak or holes in the piston into the sump.
Hope this helps.
The timing belt covers are single use.
Mine started leaking at 10k
Good problem solving, I like how you go into this with quite a positive mind set.
Great video guys, can't beat engine problems vids
Check the vacuum pump hasn’t seized and caused the problem. I would change the vacuum pump as well
A lot of th Opel corsa D’s as well as the 08 fiat doblos Have the same design with the cylinder heads I think it’s a good design
Would it be worth your while looking with an inspection camera into each cylinders for damaged pistons ?
Great video lads. Really nice the way Rob explains whats happening for novices like me. Cheers!!
