Wet Belt Change

I'm the second owner of my 1.0L Ecoboost from new. It was first registered in September 2016, and I bought it in March 2019.

It has a full Ford Service History.

The mileage is currently 66,0600.

I know Ford recommend 125,00 miles or 10 years before you need to change the wet belt, so shall I get mine done maybe next year?

    I'd do it if it were my car, if Ford said it needed oil every two years. Cheaper than a new motor.

    If it were mine I'd seriously be planning on getting it done October/November this year.

    Just had my son's Focus done at Aaron's Autos in Derby. 2015 vintage with 30k on clock. Id get it done as soon as reasonably possible.

    They did a great job.
