2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · GE19 MCG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift from preventative upkeep to reactive repairs. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 97,363 miles passed, it introduced multiple advisories regarding wear that were absent in previous years. The transition from clean records in 2022 and 2023 to a list of mechanical concerns suggests the vehicle is entering a phase where components are reaching the end of their functional service life. The mileage reflects reflects high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per year, which is consistent with a heavy-use commercial profile. Between March 2022 and March 2023, the van covered 24,135 miles without any recorded defects. However, the interval between March 2023 and August 2025 saw an additional 22,992 miles accumulated. This rapid accumulation explains the significant stress placed on the drivetrain, suspension assembly, and braking system. A buyer must prioritize an inspection of the front braking system, as the tester flagged pitted and scored discs in both August 2024 at 86,502 miles and again in August 2025 at 97,363 miles. The recurring nature of this advisory indicates the discs were not replaced between tests. The edge wear on the offside front and rear tyres noted in the 2025 test suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require immediate investigation to prevent further premature tyre degradation.
