I'm thinking about purchasing a Ford Transit Custom, but I'm not sure how long the engine typically lasts. I plan on using the vehicle for work purposes and want to make sure it's a reliable investment. Any tips or experiences with long term use?
ReplyIn my experience, the Ford Transit Custom engine can last anywhere from 200,000 to 300,000 miles. However, this greatly depends on how well you maintain the vehicle and how often you drive it. My advice would be to stick to the recommended maintenance schedule and make sure to properly break in the engine before heavy use.
I've been using a Ford Transit Custom for my business for over 5 years now and the engine is still going strong. I've put about 250,000 miles on it so far and haven't had any major issues. I make sure to change the oil and perform regular maintenance, so that definitely helps with longevity. Good luck with your decision!
I'm a mechanic and I've seen Ford Transit Custom engines last well over 300,000 miles. But again, proper maintenance is key. Make sure to use high quality oil and filters and listen to any strange noises or warning lights. It's a great investment for a work vehicle, just take care of it and it will last you a long time.
