The question
I've just bought a Ford Focus TDCi 1.8 with 135,000km on the clock; lovely car, but I can't find out if it has a timing belt or chain. Can you help me find out?

Hi Louise,
That car has a timing belt, which should be replaced every 125,000 miles (or 200,000 kilometres). We'd recommend changing it sooner than that, however, say every 100,000 miles, so it would be a good idea to have it changed on your car sooner rather than later.
Hope that helps
