SandyCat Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Got a 2009 1.4 petrol with just under 40k on it. Belt or chain and when should it be changed? Thanks for any answers :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGersFord Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 chains dont usually need changed unless theres a fault. Belts should be changed every 10years or 100 000 miles whichever comes first i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick78 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 1.4 petrol is a timing belt Ford says it needs changed at 100,000 miles or 10 years Personally i'd have it done before this, about 80,000 miles or 8 years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
