My S-Max is less economical than it was...
Hi,
My 2007 Ford S-Max 1.8 diesel has just had the timing belt changed and now has a massive increase in fuel consumption. Instead of 570 miles per tank it's only 400. Any ideas?
Cheers

When to change my Ford Kuga's belt?
Does the 2014 Ford Kuga have a timing belt or chain and at what mileage should it be changed? If so, does it give a warning when it needs to be changed or will it just snap?

Should the dealer do this Kuga's timing belt?
I am buying a 161 Ford Kuga 2.0-litre Titanium; should the dealership do the timing belt before I get it? It has 94,000km on the clock. Any advice would be great, thanks.
