About Us

About Copthorne Transit Centre

We work on the Ford Transit, Transit Custom, Transit Connect and Ranger, including oil pressure warnings, wet belt concerns, hard brake pedal faults and running issues on the 2.0 EcoBlue engine.

Who We Are

Specialists, Not Generalists

Unlike a general garage that sees every make and model, we specialise in Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Transit Connect vans, with a particular focus on the 2.0 EcoBlue engine. We diagnose the fault before we recommend work, and we give you clear advice.

Based in Copthorne, West Sussex, we are an independent garage that diagnoses and repairs Ford 2.0 EcoBlue engines. We work on Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Transit Connect vans, including wet belt failures, oil pressure faults and emissions system diagnostics. Our customers come from across Sussex, Surrey and Kent.

We diagnose before we recommend work. We use specialist diagnostic equipment and focus on the EcoBlue platform. We handle work from a simple inspection to a full engine rebuild. We keep you updated as the work progresses.

We understand that when your van is off the road, your business or daily life is affected. That’s why we aim to complete work efficiently without cutting corners, getting you back on the road with a properly repaired vehicle and the confidence that the job has been done right.

FAQ

Common Questions

We specialise in the Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Transit Connect, and in the Ford Ranger with the 2.0 EcoBlue engine. We do take on other makes for general mechanical work such as brakes, clutches and servicing, but our main focus is diagnosing and repairing these Ford engines.

Yes, that’s exactly how we work. We inspect, test and diagnose properly using specialist equipment before we recommend replacing parts, so you know what work is needed and why. If a repair isn’t needed, we’ll tell you.

If the oil pressure warning light comes on, you should stop driving as soon as it is safe to do so and call us for advice. Continuing to drive with low oil pressure can cause serious engine damage that may not be repairable. We’d rather you call us for a quick chat than risk further damage.

Yes. The 2.0 EcoBlue engine is also fitted to the Ford Ranger, and we see plenty of them. The same wet belt, oil pump belt and oil pressure issues affect the Ranger, and we diagnose and repair them using the same specialist approach.

How long a full wet belt replacement on the 2.0 EcoBlue takes depends on what we find during inspection, so we confirm the expected time when we quote and keep you updated throughout the job.
