Transit connect... - Daniel306 - 21-06-2014 Looking at a transit connect needs a turbo so its going cheep, anyone had one? what the opinion on them? RE: Transit connect... - cully - 21-06-2014 make sure its not been limited like our work vans other than that they fly ours seems to eat clutch's but i dont think the workforce has much mechanical sympathy its on its second clutch @70k 3 year old van RE: Transit connect... - Daniel306 - 21-06-2014 What mpg do you get out of them in the real world? RE: Transit connect... - cully - 21-06-2014 no idea i just mat it cause it limited it does show 35mpg on the trip evrytime i reset it RE: Transit connect... - welshpug - 21-06-2014 horrible things, would rather a french van. RE: Transit connect... - Pete - 21-06-2014 Don't like the weird fly-by-wire throttle they've got,Or the lack of storage in the cabin (The Partner/Berlingo has cubby holes and cup holders everywhere ![]() RE: Transit connect... - 306carter - 21-06-2014 What year? I had a 2004 TDDi that returned around 400-450 per tank. Pretty average for a small van. If it's a later TDCi the injectors are a common issue. RE: Transit connect... - Daniel306 - 21-06-2014 My 307 has fly by wire and i find is not noticeable any more Its a 55 plate, i am intrested in one of the new Peugeot/Citroen vans with the limited slip diff and 3 seats up front, so i can use it off road but im going to wreck whatever i get so it must be cheep. im also sick of other drivers denting the side of my car so im getting something they will be scared parking next too... RE: Transit connect... - Ruan - 21-06-2014 TDCis are the naff Delphi CR system - really shit, VERY common for injectors just to fail like the Mk3 Mondeos. TDDis are pretty reliable, if a little slow... RE: Transit connect... - Martin306 - 21-06-2014 I agree with welshpug (hahahahahahaha rare occasion, someone get cake!) They are rustbuckets, same as full size transits. Designed to last 3-5 years reliably (lease periods really). RE: Transit connect... - 306carter - 22-06-2014 My old one on Mondeo alloys lowered about 70mm. .......... ![]() I have a 2013 Berlingo now and must admit it's a much better van. RE: Transit connect... - Josh1994 - 22-06-2014 Are transit connect good? My dad has a 2008 transit which is really good, i got to get a van for my secruity job which im starting in july, the mpg ia good from a full tank he got 587mpg but my 306 got 517mpg... Im wondering how much space could i get in the back of i had got a dog cage in there i know that it depends on what type of cage i get.. but wondering what are the good ppints and the bad points.. btw im driving a ex police mondeo for the time being so my 306 will be of the road next week for 8 months.. RE: Transit connect... - Poodle - 23-06-2014 Might need to recalculate your mpg figures there mate... ![]() RE: Transit connect... - Toms306 - 23-06-2014 Wish I could get 587mpg. ![]() But on topic, not sure if you're bothered by it, but I've been told they're pretty poorly specced, not even electric windows/mirrors afaik. The guy I bought the Vec from had one and was moaning about it for about half an hour. ![]() RE: Transit connect... - Josh1994 - 28-06-2014 Lol tom, anyway decided to get a connect as it is big enough gor the dog cage.. might get the st version.. |
