I have just bought a 2005 Mondeo 115 TDCI.

She is in excellent condition and had 1 previous owner, but she has covered 135k.

There are no receipts for a clutch which seems to be a problem on these cars.....What are signs to lookout for?

Also....Aux belt has not been changed and looking on the net they say to change the tensioner as well......Is this really needed as the kit is expensive but the belt is of a reasonable price.

Also.....I filled my tank up to the top the other day. I have done 115 miles in her and the fuel gauge has not moved, I am worried about this. I am used to big engined petrol cars though and the most economical car I have had in the past did 29mpg!

And lastly!! I am thinking about a re-map.....Will it change her performance by a lot as in I will notice it?
