12:20 don’t know if I’ve read that wrong but 340k kilometres is that the mileage? That’s well over 200k miles if it has never had a timing belt in that time then it did pretty well. Surprised something else hasn’t written off that engine before that.
My Tourneo is a 2016 model and I have 130.000 km.Now I am planning to replace the belt before the car reaches 150.000 km. Also I have never trusted the ford about the oil service for 30.000 km periods. I do the service by myself at around every 8.000 km. If I understand right the problem was from the tensioner chain at the cam cover? How can anyone avoid this condition to the engine?
I've heard that the chain rattles and makes a hell of a row for miles before it fails completely , so owner had long warning, 240,000 (150,000 miles) is way too long, take no notice what ford say- change before 80,000 miles or 6 years

@ I don’t know really maybe change the chain and tensioner at the same time as the timing belt
@@AndreasGo-r3jI had similar issue with a Peugeot Peugeot 3008 strange ticking noise from engine

Really, great job, Alan.
Thanks Mike 👍
Ye get all the handy jabs!
I have to keep him entertained Dave 😂😂😂
Good stuff.
Thanks! 👍
so have you had it running before the oil change or did you change the oil change after the works
Got it up and running first then went back to change the oil and oil filter

Yes I would agree 100%
great video but a terrible engine is there any engine out there going to last 100,000 miles now wet belts plastic componets in them
No I don’t think so and I think they are designed not to last it’s shocking to me how soft these newer cars are now
You were right to take the engine out , would be much harder with it in
Yes I’m glad I went at it that way
