When to change my Mondeo's belt?
When should I change the timing belt on my ford mondaeo two thousand and twelve 1.6 eco diesel i changed it at 100,2000 miles there is now 213344 miles on the clock thanks
Our answer:
Hi John,
It depends on when the car was built. If it was made before July 2011, then the interval is 140,000km or 10 years. If it was made after that it's 180,000km or 10 years - whichever comes first in both cases.
The VIN plate should show when the car was manufactured, but regardless, I'd be inclined to go with the shorter interval.
