Recommended Posts

Hi I have an 07 S Max 2.0 petrol, with 63000 miles on the clock, although the mileage is low, I understand I should have the timing belt changed due to the cars age,

Should I also have the water pump, aux drive belt, tensioner, drive belt idler/guide replaced due to their age, regardless of condition ?, anything else I need to consider?, 

Your advice in this matter would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Pete

Only thing to consider is that it's a timing chain and not timing belt. Lol .no change interval.

So only belt to change is aux belt.

Hi iantt thanks for the reply, is it advisable to change the other stuff I've mentioned at the same time as the timing chain?

The timing chain doesnt need changing, just the aux belt, no need to domthe other things unless you have a problem
