What Are the Most Common Faults With the Vans We Buy?
As we buy all vans – even at end of life, we see all the different faults that could happen to your van. As we are experts when it comes to broken vans, there are a few faults that are more common than others:
- Engine failure: caused by abnormal combustion inside the engine, engine failure can also be caused by bad ignition timing, incorrect spark plugs, low octane fuel or elevated engine operating temperature. Signs of engine failure can include knocking, squealing, grinding and smoke coming from the engine.
- Timing chain failure: this can happen due to the timing chain stretching because of internal component wear over time. If your chain fails then your vehicle will not run at all. Once your timing chain is stretched, it may skip a gear and lead to an engine misfire.
- Cambelt failure: it’s crucial that the valves at the top of the engine do not come into contact with the pistons. If a cambelt or timing chain fails, this system will get out of sync or out of line. This means that the moving parts within your engine are free to collide, causing catastrophic and usually permanent damage.
- Injectors blowing out: signs of your injector blowing out include a chuffing sound and a black ‘tar’ will be seen. This occurs when the injector doesn’t seal against the injector seat in the cylinder head.
- Oil pump failure: an oil pump is crucial to the running of your vehicle. A bad or faulty oil pump won’t move the oil around your system properly. This then leads to further vehicle damage and your engine can even overheat due to the parts not being lubricated properly.
- Turbo failure: oil starvation, oil contamination and foreign object damage are the three main causes of turbo failure. 90% of turbocharger failures are caused by oil related problems. These can either be due to oil starvation or oil contamination.
