Time to get the timing belt changed. which to go for? car is a focus st 170. any other parts i should be changing at the same time?
cheers folks

 

GET a ford one.and get someone that knows what there doing to do it.. these are not the same as the normal 1.8/2.0's

 

get a gates timing belt kit you dont need the extra exspense of a ford kit because gates make genuine belts for 99% of manufacturers anyway easy enough belt to do if you have the locking kit and are competant with tools, do not attempt if not tho

 

Gates belts arw good too.I would be changing the adjuster and the idler.

 

May be worth changing the Water pump.

 

afaik the water pump is driven from the aux belt

 

correct no need to change at same time as the cambelt

 

Might as well change the aux belt whilst thats off.

 

Used the gates belts every time, same as fords but cheaper

 

A gates belt every time mate, my sons rst is mental and he swares by em and i have also used em many times in the past

 

i think it has been said enough, but once more, Gates belt kit.
