Camshaft sprocket and turbo oil-return seal on the 3.0 V6 (Ranger)Valve timing

Engine / equipment: Ford Ranger and Everest 3.0 V6 “Lion” diesel
Period mentioned: 2022–2025
Symptoms: The engine stalls suddenly; oil marks under the turbo.
Possible cause described: Ford recalled about 13,490 V6 Rangers and Everests in Australia because the left camshaft sprocket can fracture and stall the engine: the garage checks the build date and replaces it if needed. Separately, a turbo oil-return O-ring badly fitted at the Dagenham plant (UK) causes leaks; it is repaired under warranty.
Check for the garage: Check by VIN at the dealer that the campaign has been done.
Cost cited in the source: Free under the recall.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
