Hi @Jiffy,

Yes, at that low price worth fitting the genuine Ford part.

Just wanted to ask if your Focus has one of the EcoBoost engines and if you have had any problems with the Wet timing belts we believe were used on those earlier models.
A neighbour has bought one but seems their 21 model has now got a timing chain but still has a wet belt for the oil pump, they were unaware of the cost of wet belt renewals and potential problems they can cause.
Assume yours is still running very well.

 

Not sure if it has a wet belt (never heard of them myself) but the engine is 16 diesel with start/stop don't think it a eco boost

Just looked it's a 16 Duratorq tdci

 

Looks like your diesel is a conventional dry belt, by far a better system.

 

Seems its not only the Fords petrol Ecotecs that have wet belts, the Stelliantis PureTech engines are the same. Also read some VWs have a wet belt for their oil pump.

Probably wet belts are not a problem for folk who buy cars on pcp etc and just have the first few years of the new car, but for folk like us who like to keep a car, trying to find a small family hatch without any wet belts is getting a hard task!
