We own a 2014 2.2lt twin turbo 6 speed Ranger, it has been an excellent vehicle. We have done 160,000 k’s, no true off-roading, but a lot of heavy laden driving on very long tours. It has had a couple of issues over the years, first was ants making nests in the relays, they are attracted to them for some reason, that happened twice( $600 each time to repair), and recently we have spent $4500 sorting out the auto transmission. Apparently they are notorious for having problems at around 160-170K k’s. But overall, compared to the Nissan Pathfinder we owned previously, the Ford is a superior vehicle.
ОтветитьGod this guys a wanker.
ОтветитьOne of the things I like most about the 3.2L is its simplicity. It is by far the simplest design of all modern diesel engines. Anyone that has rebuilt one will know what I'm talking about
Ответитьaustralia should build a new weetbix car .i wonder how good it would go in water
ОтветитьIt’s now 2022 and our local Ford dealer imports mostly 3.2L. Thinking out loud, maybe they don’t like to having to give refunds.
ОтветитьTHE DOWNSIDE JOHN. YHEY ARE BOTH FUCKING FORD RANGERS
ОтветитьI have no idea how on earth Fords fuel tests got the 3.2 to do 8.7 L/100km. I have a 3.2 Everest and have tried my damdest to drive as conservatively as possible. I can barely get better than 13 L/100km in urban driving and 10 L/100km in highway driving. My old Ranger 3.2 didn't do much better than that.
ОтветитьHow about a simple oil filter change ?
ОтветитьNo replacement for displacement. 3.2 for me
ОтветитьDoes anyone know if the 3.2 is the old Land Rover TD5? I hear ford may have recycled the TD5 and kept this little trinket when it sold off Land Rover.
ОтветитьWalked into a dealer, walked away feeling raped. The price is crazy for what the vehicle is, but that's ok because the dealer said they have 20 thousand people waiting. Mad fanatics.
ОтветитьI miss my 3.2 XLT! That engine and performance is way better that my current Bi-Turbi
ОтветитьHi John, would like to get an update regarding the twin turbo and the V6 engine this time. :)
ОтветитьWhy didn't you use HP instead of kilowatts like a modern mechanic from a civilised country !
ОтветитьThe 2.0 feels like a small engine, the 3.2 have that tractor torque in low gears that makes the difference.. stay with the 3.2.. also vibrates less and sound better
ОтветитьI’d suggest a V8 diesel or drop your van, buy a Hyundai and get onto air bnb lol. 😅
Ответить3.2 out performs and more power in mountains,this is a fact i have one and it out performs the smaller engines,twin turbos dont cut it,lol,i out performed the Raptor in the mountains,a fact people
ОтветитьFor LONG-TERM usage: the 3.2 Liter would have the Engine last longer. Twin-Turbo engines tend to be EXPENSIVE to fix when something bad happens, and usually, turbo engines wear out faster. So for those who intend to keep their Ford Ranger for 10+ years, then you should only buy the 3.2 Liter non-Turbo because you don't know how the previous owner took care of the vehicle.
Ответить@john
If Ranger has quality issues and bad reputation, why are the sales numbers so high ?
A mate traded his 3.2 Wildtrak for the 2.0 Biturbo, he said i thought the mpg could not be any worse on the 3.2 until he got the new one, he said mpg is crap on the 2.0
ОтветитьWish you would take your channel more seriously.
ОтветитьCan you compare to the new V6?
ОтветитьThe joke... Omg lol
ОтветитьThe 3.2 although showing less peak torque appears to have a wider torque spread, the 2 liter is narrower and peaky, the 10 speed auto effectively masks this difference by keeping the 2 liter engine in its narrower torque band with 4 more ratios, if the 2 liter had the 6R80 6 speed auto as in the 5 cylinder 3..2 liter it would struggle a bit against the 3.2 under load I believe.
Having said that the 3.2 hasn't been that reliable an engine, early oil pump issues, quite a number with failed no 5 piston, possibly oil pressure issues with failing variable pressure vane type oil pump rather than more reliable gear type constant pressure pump as fitted to some French 5 cylinder models and available after market.
Crank sensor failure common, An auto transmission cooler that is IMO too small to cool transmission when towing heavy trailers, caravans in hot climate, yet Ford use heavy towing as a sales feature.
The 2 liter had a run of injector failures due to poor quality of a contract supplier, time will tell with this engine I guess.
3.2 with the 10 speed would be a good combo. My xlt 3.2 is mapped to 175kw and smokes my mates 2 ltr bi turbo
ОтветитьGreat review!
I always choose a big engine over a small turbo engine.
I have an XLT 2.3 ecoboost...American.
ОтветитьThe 2.2ltrand the ten speed transmission are a catastrophic failure just waiting to happen...you might afford to buy one but can you afford to fix it when it 💩s it self!!.
ОтветитьBi turbo not twin turbo theres a diff🫣
Ответитьgreat explanations sir.. thank you..
ОтветитьAll turbo machines only are for go super fast,not offroad
Yes if u have a v8 turbo or v6 turbo will be a monster😅
So after all these year's what has been the outcome?
I'm still sticking with my 3.2.
John Help me out, I live in the PI I am leaning towards the Ranger sport 2.0 6spd instead of wildtrack 2.0 10 spd. What do you think.
ОтветитьI'm a low stress kind of guy, I just bought a 3.2
ОтветитьHmmmmm 2.0 vs 3.2 litre !!!
Laws of physics says 3.2
Common sense says 3.2
Logic says 3.2....
Gullable and stupid says 2.0
Less strain on engine says 3.2
Its that simple
The improved transmission protects the smaller engine.......
ОтветитьBoth of these engines are crap
ОтветитьIs the engine bay wiring loom around the front of the head still shithouse and prone to vibration wear through and EMS fry ?
Thanks for your gumby facial graphics John …
Nice tool display !
First was a ranger then a bt50 both blew headgasket on the 3.2L so not sure what you mean by problem free 😅
Ответить2.0l turbo/s gonna be working much harder to pull the car than a 3.2 engine, plus there's 2 of the turbos working harder , that may fail.
Ответить4x construction workers with boots and all... is well over 400kg.
:)
trust me WE are not lightweight
Unless it is the camera angle, it looks like the castor swivel is not horizontal when the castor is engaged. Castors hate to swivel unless the swivel is exactly horizontal. I think those castor brackets need to be reengineered.
ОтветитьIts now 4 years later. What are the stats now between the bi turbo and 3.2 re reliability. Can you evaluate this would like to know.
ОтветитьI just updated from a 2012, 2.2 Ltd Ranger , which finally gave up the ghost at 390,000ks , to a 2017 3.2 Ranger, which is really good, so far. Just love the thing, plenty of power for what I need it for, comfortable and just nice to drive.
Hoping to get similar range out of this one👍. Will keep an eye on that cooler thing though. Thanks.
John your wife must be an incredibly special person to put up with you 24/7 😁😁😁😁😁
ОтветитьHonestly.. my 2015 T6 Ford Ranger Wildtrak has a the 3.2L and over 250k Kilometers.. and its an ABSOLUTE UNIT💀.. NOW i have made bad decisions and compromised the electrical system and that has given me some problems.. buy 3.2 Duratorq is by far my favorite engine.. and I've had a lot of pick ups..
ОтветитьGros tas de merde
ОтветитьDo you use alot of Diesel engines in small trucks in the UK ?
