• Ford Focus II (2004 - 2007) - 07 1.8 TDCI Cambelt change 19 Nov 2009 (Forum)
  I've just been told by my local Ford dealer that the cambelt change interval on my 2007 Focus 1.8TDCI is 125,000 miles or 10 years. 125,000 miles! Thats the biggest interval I've ever seen for a cambelt - is that right? Seems a massive mileage. I'm on 75,000 now so I expected around 80-100,000

  I rang up a local Ford dealer to ask them if it really is necessary to check/adjust the valve clearances on the zetec petrol engine and they said it was not imperative unless the engine had other problems. In the Ford service guide it says check/adjust every 100 000miles or 10 years whichever
