When to change the belt in my Focus?

When to change the belt in my Focus?

I have a 2013 Ford Focus with a 1.6 petrol engine. When should I change the timing belt & water pump please?

Our answer:

Hi Martin,

It depends which 1.6-litre petrol engine you mean. There were two quite different units fitted to the Focus in 2013. Here are the recommended intervals for them:

1.6 SCTi EcoBoost (150hp or 182hp): 200,000km or 10 years

1.6 Ti-VCT (82hp, 105hp, 125hp): 160,000km or 8 years
