Hi all, I’m a Newbie with a query regarding the service interval for my newly acquired (via Ford Direct) 68 plate Kuga ST Line X AWD Automatic with 2.0l Duratorq TDCI engine. The dealer has implied the service interval is 18000miles/2 years whereas Ford Customer Relations state 10000 miles/1 year. The Service Booklet just says for this engine

No vehicle deserves the miserable fate inflicted upon it by a self-righteous or "business-minded" Professional. 2.0 TDCI Timing Belt replacement - Crank Bolt. I'm ticking near to 100k on my 66 plate Mondeo, so starting to think about doing the timing belt and water pump. Watching Alan Howatts videos on the matter, he warns of stripping threads/snapping bolts on these due to the insance amount of locktite used on the threads.6th year or 75K miles which ever comes first, that service I'm led to believe is circa £900 as it will more than likely have a DPF that is scheduled for replacing at that service interval. Premium tyres if it's on 16's can be had for circa £80 a corner, 17's are circa £130, budget obviously cheaper.Name: Peter. Ford Model: Focus 1.5 tdci Titanium. Ford Year: 2015. UK/Ireland Location: Yorkshire. Posted November 9, 2022. Good morning. My timing belt is due to be changed on my 1.5 TDCI on the next service, I was wondering what else members have had changed with this belt e.g. water pump, other belts? Quote. B9wyfJ8.
