Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2023 model year cars.
- 2.0 EcoBlue Timing-Belt and Oil-Service SensitivitySerious
Ford's 2.0 EcoBlue diesel relies on very specific servicing discipline. Missed intervals or the wrong oil can accelerate belt and lubrication-system wear, turning a modern pickup into a major engine job far earlier than buyers expect.
- AdBlue and NOx After-Treatment FaultsModerate
Like other modern Ford diesels, Ranger Euro 6 models can develop NOx-sensor, AdBlue-heater or dosing faults that trigger warnings, poor running or a restart countdown if ignored.
- 10-Speed 10R80 Automatic Transmission Hesitation and Shift FlareModerate
The 10-speed 10R80 automatic transmission fitted to 2.0 Bi-Turbo and 3.0 V6 diesels can exhibit jerky low-speed shifts, hesitation when shifting between 2nd and 3rd, and shift flaring under moderate acceleration. This is commonly caused by transmission control module adaptive software calibration issues or sticking internal solenoid valves.
