2020 Ford Focus when do I need my 2-year/18k mile service?

Featured Replies

I'm a bit confused about when my Focus will be due for its first 2 year service.

I bought the car in June 2021 as an ex-demo with 4.5k miles, I'm currently on 8k miles. In my Service Portfolio it has the Pre-Delivery Inspection done on 10/08/2020 - this would mean the service is due in August 2022, and the date of Next Service Due on my invoice when I purchased the car is 31/07/2022 with the 1st Registration Date of 12/08/2020 so this seems to match.

However, when I look at the service history in the FordPass app it has the Pre-Delivery Inspection dated 02/12/2019 and states the Next Service Due is 02/12/2021 - so would mean I am now overdue for the 2 year service.

So what date should I go by as there a 8 month difference between the two?

Thanks in advance



Just get it serviced.

Personally I think 2 years or 18k miles is too long to wait for any service, especially if it's the 1.0L ecoboost you have.

I agree with you, 2years or 18k would be to long for me I would change the engine oil  between 10k and 12k for peace of mind, on saying that some like V/W or AUDI go for 18k with long life oil.

2 years or 18,000 miles from date of registration.

The oil is good for that time

I have been looking into this, I also think 2 years is too long for an eco boost, think I will want to change every year. Dealer cost £150.  Seems a lot of expense to go to but guess it’s better than a new engine.  

Which service would you get for 2 years or 18000 miles, the "Scheduled" or the "Essential"/

Personally I would never go 18000 miles before a service. However if you do it would have to be a major service you have at that mileage 

It needs to be 'scheduled' to keep the warranty on a 2 year old car.  The essential service is for older vehicles out of warranty.
