📖Ford Transit Connect II Facelift Kombi L1: flexible passenger-cargo synergy, EcoBlue efficiency and modern ergonomics

Ford Transit Connect II Facelift Kombi L1 (2018-2024)

The 2018 facelifted Transit Connect Kombi L1 bridges the gap between commercial practicality and family utility, providing a glazed five-seater cabin that swiftly converts into a capacious load bay. Diligent, scheduled Ford Transit Connect maintenance keeps its adaptable passenger gear and refined mechanicals performing at their peak, rivaling the Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Rifter.

Power is delivered primarily by the Euro 6d 1.5 EcoBlue diesel engine, paired with either a six-speed manual gearbox or an 8-speed automatic gearbox that brings remarkable motorway composure. The short-wheelbase chassis features independent front MacPherson struts and a car-derived rear torsion beam, tuned to deliver compliant ride comfort whether carrying passengers or bulky sports equipment.

Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • Versatile glazed interior combining comfortable five-passenger seating with an easily expandable cargo bay.
  • Frugal 1.5 EcoBlue diesel engine providing strong mid-range torque and low running costs.
  • Silky-smooth 8-speed automatic transmission enhancing passenger comfort in stop-start urban traffic.
  • Elevated driving position with excellent all-round visibility, SYNC 3 infotainment, and modern safety tech.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • 1.5 EcoBlue cambelt and camshaft timing chain: strictly observe oil specifications; degraded oil causes premature chain wear.
  • AdBlue SCR dosing injector: check for urea crusting on the exhaust injector and ensure software calibrations are up to date.
  • 8-speed automatic transmission: confirm smooth, prompt shifts and no hesitation during low-speed parking manoeuvres.
  • Second-row seat folding mechanisms and floor catches: inspect for coin or grit obstructions and test secure locking.
  • Dual glazed sliding side doors: check window seals for water leaks and inspect runner bearings for quiet, free movement.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Engine oil and filter change strictly every 15,000 km or 12 months with Ford WSS-M2C952-A1 0W-20 specification.
  • 1.5 EcoBlue cambelt, tensioner, and water pump renewal every 150,000 km or 8 years.
  • 8-speed automatic transmission fluid renewal every 60,000 km or 3 years.
  • Fuel filter replacement every 30,000 km or 2 years.
