When to change my Focus Estate's belt?
ive recently purchased a 2017 ford focus estate 1.6 with 70K on the dial, when is the expected change time on the cam belt ? any ideas as i just lost another focus with the same problem , a much older version
Our answer:
Hi Robbie,
I assume you mean the 1.6-litre petrol model, as the 1.6-litre diesel went out of production in 2015. The petrol engine's belt should be changed every 160,000km or eight years, whichever comes first.
