Its not my OPINION pal its in the handbook and frankly is backed up by plenty of experience, funny how you came on saying you worked at ford and now you happen to run a workshop dealing with fleet managers, now lets check the wordcount for who gets stressed

The 2% of my job that was dealing with the cars was keeping the fleet mobile, nothing to do with penny pinching and stretching intervals, there was plenty of budget for that as it was important

I cannot name a make/model where the cambelt or auxilliarys fail with ANY pattern or regularity before the suggested interval and neither can you despite your insistance the suggested intervals are too short. I've seen a few due to manufacturing defects which could happen to any part but thats random and part of life.

Its ridiculous advising people to change at fiesta at 50k like Tabetha was, its a lot of money for fuck all and bad advice
