I am looking for contact points in Germany or abroad (GB) for spare parts for my 1983 transit. Who has Internet addresses or other starting points for the purchase of used or new parts??? Thank you

Hello, I bni since yesterday Ford Transit MK 3 owner. What does the MK????? I am looking for contacts to people who have spare parts, know each other. I register my transit next week and pick it up on Friday. I need information on the conversion of the seats front. I am 1.97m tall and sit rather uncomfortable on the original seats that are already badly “underrided”. Thank you in advance. Sebastian

I was mailed, I should please go to the workshop so that the heating problem can be solved. It starts after parking the vehicle for 30 minutes…. When I arrived at the workshop, they told me that there is still a recall action from Ford… this is really the hammer and that a new software for the control unit was installed so that the pistons did not push up so far, apparently to avoid engine damage… that I find already se It’s very worrying, since I already had such a tinned blade in the cold state, since the update it’s gone. Hope that that’s fixed. Which is also positive due to the software update, the high-light assistant finally works. Has someone had similar experiences… well, it’s so slow with all the functions… unfortunately, the 157 km/h limit is still active…. Marcus

Hello MTler, after an unsuccessful search I have to open up a new topic. My new transit (FT300L front drive BJ 2013) has summer tyres of the dimension 195/70 R15. On the old transit I had 215/75 R16. Since the (old) winter tyres are quite new and generally more expensive than the summer pellet I would prefer to continue using the winter tyres and buy new summer tyres + rims. In addition, the transit (long/high) with the small wheels looks really ridiculous. ge with around 4cm more ground clearance … also not bad! Now to the problem – Do I get the 215/75 R16 registered without any problems? – how does the transit with the approximately 10% more roll circumference with the already quite long translated clear? The official process..incl. Tachoangleichung is known to me! The snow chain problem is also known to me! Greeting Georg

Hello Ford driving, for a few days now my car, after switching on the ignition, tells me that the emergency assistant is not available and therefore I should contact my dealer for inspection. Besides, he suddenly no longer knows the contacts called by voice input and claims that an XY is not available in the phone book (or something similar). Of course I will contact my friend, but if someone in advance a helpful (because perhaps cost-saving ende) idea has, would he be sure of my deep gratitude. Can one reset the system somehow?

Hello, I’m interested in a Ford Tourneo Custom 2016. I’ve already calculated a lot here in the forum and on the internet. Unfortunately, there are no test/reviews at all or I couldn’t find them. Is there perhaps already which of them can call the new model (2016) their own and can/want to report something? I would be particularly interested in driving feeling and consumption of the new engines. Of course, a general report would also be very interesting. H In the forum I found information (almost) only about the previous models. Unfortunately, my Ford dealer in Münster has only the previous model in the exhibition, but the new model is supposed to exist since 12.2015. I am also irritated by completely different data in the price lists of Ford. In the German price list there is e.g. as a trailer load 2.2t in the Austrian 2.1t. In addition, Ford Köln wrote to me on demand that the 170hp variant a Hö the highest speed of 170 km/h. In the Austrian price list there is a top speed of 180 km/h. I find that quite confusing. Thank you very much!

Hello dear forum, have before my wheel bearings at the VA and HA to exchange. For this I still need the tightening torques for the nuts or the axial game which has to be adjusted afterwards. Does one villt. any data for me ? If I do not get the data, should I make it according to the “old method” = “tighten and return half a turn” ? The disc with the 3 grooves behind the nut at the VA must be movable and secure the axial game for the front wheel lag he, right ? What does it look like about the HA ? Simmerrings on the HA should be exchanged, but must first get the scar out so that I can measure it, there are several different ones in the net which partly differ only minimally. The big nut on the HA is a 55s variety nut, if someone needs it, I can lend it gladly, if one buys it 😛 Thanks for any help, greetings

Hello Motor-Talk Community, can someone tell me how to get the window cranks and the manual mirror setting off at the Tourneo-Connect BJ2002 without breaking anything unnecessarily? I would also like to know if I need an adapter if I want to install new speakers? Thank you in advance

Hi, I’ve had a Ford Tourneo Custom Limited for a month and I’m happy about everything after my friend corrected a few things. So much for the first ride on the highway an absolute shake on the steering wheel. It turned out that the wheels either had no balancing lead or which had in the completely wrong place. On a wheel lacked 70gr lead! Then the front carpet on the seats was 2 cm too wide, so that it stood off the floor and sic Well, it’s not that bad. Then the front protective foils on the fenders were so badly glued, which after the first rain water was between paint and foil. There are also varnish noses on the door and the underbody protection in the fender was partly missing in some places. Well, quality-wise a class under my Mondeo. But everything is not so bad. Oh yes, the tank trunk insert is changed next week, so that finally at the ta There are only two things that concern me right now. The disguise crunches in, runs through unevenness and even extremely when you press on it. Can you fix that yourself or ask Ford for an improvement? And then the topic of radio. The sound is really bad… Around worlds worse than the Mondeo. It’s the normal Ford Sync. Is that on the radio or on the speakers? As soon as you make something louder it sounds impossible. You already have experience with improvements? Oh yes, I think I have one more question. Is there any cover for the seat rails? Step on it once and the paint is off. Is there dirt in it immediately? Thanks for the answers. LG Ronny

Hello dear people, today I brought my heater, Eberspächer D2L on my Nuggi Bj 91, 2,5 D, back to life … Drive the Nuggi now 6 years and my predecessor had shut down the heater …. For all those who want to point out this, yes, I know the 10 year regulation. Now to my problem: the predecessor had shut down the heater in this way that he removed the dosing pump of the heater, the pipes were cut, simply let down. l which goes from tank or diesel line to the dosing pump, was removed. Probably there is working with a T-piece there ? Or goes directly to the tank ? I know the thoughtful safety aspect of the D2L, that it only runs with full tank, or minimal half or something, to avoid that one does not heat the tank empty. But that would mean that it is not a T-piece but goes directly to the tank ? Long story short: Can one villt. take a photo under the car n, where the diesel is picked up ? Or describe it well ? Would be great. Dear Gruss Ps: Who asks why I want to know it so “exactly” and not just create a “new” place, is because there are also max. lengths of the conveying lines for the small dosing pump and I do not want to go below it, otherwise the thing may not work.
