If you own a Fiat Fiorino dating from 2008 onwards, you might face engine issues that can be quite complex to address. As a master tech mechanic with 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve encountered several cases where the engines of these vehicles required significant repairs or even complete reconditioning.
The Fiat Fiorino engine may experience problems such as overheating, loss of power, unusual knocking sounds, and increased exhaust emissions. These issues generally stem from wear and tear, but can also be linked to failures in the cooling system, oil leaks, or defective spark plugs. Typically, you might notice poor fuel efficiency, difficulty in starting the engine, or a check engine light that stubbornly refuses to turn off.
Various factors could be at play when dealing with a faulty engine. Overheating could be due to a malfunctioning radiator or issues with the water pump. Timing chain problems might lead to engine misfires, whereas issues with the turbocharger can cause power losses.
Repairing or reconditioning the engine of a Fiat Fiorino involves several intricate steps. This process might include disassembling the engine, cleaning all components, replacing faulty parts like gaskets, bearings, and seals, and finally reassembling and testing the engine to ensure that it meets performance standards.
While the option to repair or recondition your van's engine is available, have you considered the benefits of simply selling your Fiat Fiorino and possibly upgrading to a newer model? Vandervan offers a streamlined service that evaluates your vehicle and offers a fair price.
Why might this be a preferable solution? First, repairing or reconditioning an engine can be costly and time-consuming. If the vehicle is older, other systemic failures might occur down the line, leading to more frequent visits to the mechanic. Additionally, with Vandervan, you can receive an instant quote online, and if you decide to go forward, we provide next-day collection from any location in the UK and immediate payment to your preferred account.
Considering upgrading to a newer vehicle might not only save you from future repair costs but also offers you the enjoyment and reliability of a newer model. Interested in how much your Fiat Fiorino is worth? Visit our Value My Van page to get a prompt evaluation.

Yes, you can indeed sell your financed van with vandervan even if it's under a Hire Purchase (HP) or Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement.
If you decide to sell your financed van, the initial step is to obtain a 'settlement figure' from your lender, which you can usually find in a settlement letter. Following that, get a valuation for your van.
Our team will walk you through the settlement process.
We do not charge any fees. There are no admin charges or anything like that. Just your van, your money, instantly.
By selling your van through our service, you join a robust network of over 4,000 verified dealers.
This can often result in a more favourable price compared to part exchange, where you might find yourself confined to a single dealer’s assessment, which might not accurately represent the real market value of your van.
Part exchanges often result in less favourable outcomes for sellers, particularly if the dealer is not intending to retail your van and plans to pass it along instead.
However, with our van buying service, you stand a better chance of obtaining a great price.
The process with us is quick and straightforward. Simply start with a free valuation and contrast this with your part exchange offer. You might be delighted to find how much more you could get from using our service than you’d get from a part exchange!

We buy any van, literally. Every van has a value, new or old, running or not.
We buy any van make or model, and any body type. Get a valuation today and see if we can help you sell your van.
Fortunately, we buy any van even if they do not have a logbook, although it is advantageous if you have a full V5 Logbook, or at least the green New Keeper Slip.
It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
