launcelot Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 Does anyone know if the 2.0 ltr diesel on the mk 111 is a Cam chain or a Cam belt affair? I would ask my local Ford dealer but I hate embarrasing people with questions on topics that they know very little about (The bloody cars they sell!) Danny D Quote
buford_t_justice Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 replaced every 125,000 miles !! Quote
insider Posted November 19, 2007 Report Posted November 19, 2007 Belt.It actually has both! There is a belt driving one of the camshafts then a (plastic) timing chain connecting the two camshafts together.There is also a separate chain driving the oil pump from the crankshaft. Quote
tim-spam Posted November 20, 2007 Report Posted November 20, 2007 ....and what about the wonderful keyless pulleys? Wrecked quite a few engines already according to my local garage. Only time will tell if the belts actually last 125000 miles - if it was mine, I would certainly replace it sooner than that. Quote
