Ford Ranger 2022
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Byron Mathioudakis had this to say at the time: After more than six years of blood, sweat and tears, millions of kilometres of testing and heaps of customer feedback that helped shape the 2023 Ford Ranger to what we see today, what can we say? It is a huge step forward for the truck. In fact, we'd go as far as saying that it might be one small step for the Ranger, but it's one giant step for pick-up kind.

I recently had to replace the engine and turbo in my MY13 Ford Ranger (2.2 4WD) due to an oil pump issue. Is this a common fault in the Rangers?
Your mechanic is switched on, and is right about some Rangers (both 2.2 and 3.2-litre variants) experiencing oil pump failures. It seems the variable displacement, vane-style pumps aren’t lasting as long as some owners are expecting them to, and there’s actually an aftermarket pump that reverts to the gear-style mechanism that some Ranger owners are retro-fitting. I’m not sure that it's at the stage where you’d call the fault commonplace, but it is not unknown. And, of course, if the pump does fail, you’ve only got a few seconds to switch the engine off before major internal damage ensues.
The bigger complaint among Ranger owners is that the standard vane-style pump allows only a ten-minute window in which to drain the oil out during a service and get the new oil in. If the mechanic takes longer than those ten minutes, the oil will drain out of the pump and, because of the design, the pump won’t self-prime when the engine is restarted, leading to it running without oil pressure. Again, that’s enough to cause terminal engine damage.
