If you're facing issues with your Toyota Proace engine, you're not alone. As a master tech mechanic with over 15 years of experience in the field, I've encountered numerous instances where these engines encounter problems that vary in complexity. It's pivotal to evaluate your situation to determine whether a repair is worth your time and money, or if looking for a new van might be the better route.
In the case of the Toyota Proace engine, common symptoms include unusual noise, reduced fuel efficiency, and a check engine light that refuses to go off. These issues may stem from a variety of sources such as age-related wear and tear, malfunctioning engine components, or even something as serious as a faulty ECU (engine control unit).
Often, problems begin as minor nuisances but can escalate quickly if not addressed. For instance, a simple issue like a dirty air filter could lead to higher fuel consumption and, eventually, more severe engine damage.
Repairing a Toyota Proace engine can vary significantly in scope and cost. It typically starts with a thorough diagnostic to pinpoint exact issues, followed by replacing or repairing damaged components. Depending on the severity, this could be as simple as changing spark plugs or as complex as a full engine rebuild.
However, repairs can be costly and often come with no guarantee of prolonged engine life. This raises an important question: is the repair worth it, or should you consider other options?
Given the potential high costs and uncertainties associated with engine repairs, selling your Toyota Proace might be a more economically sensible decision. At Vandervan, we streamline the selling process to make it as effortless as possible. Imagine receiving a fair valuation of your van in just 30 seconds, followed by a swift collection from anywhere in the UK, and receiving instant payment into the account of your choice.
Why sink money into a deteriorating asset when you can invest in a new, reliable vehicle? Transitioning to a new van not only alleviates the stress of recurring mechanical failures but also offers you a fresh start with a more efficient and technologically advanced model.
If you're contemplating whether to repair or sell your Toyota Proace, contact us at Vandervan. We provide expert advice and seamless solutions tailored to your needs, making your decision easier and more informed.

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.
