Hi All
Need to change the timing belt on the LT Focus TDCI. Has anyone done this? Suggestions for a place in Sydney? And what costs should I expect to pay? Thanks in advance |

I was quoted about $550 from ford in Brisbane for a 2009 TDCI about a month ago, but they wanted to tack on the accessories belt to make it a $900 repair.
Hope that helps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks Nach0, that seems like a reasonable price $550, seeing as the Gates Timing belt kit including waterpump is $277 from ebay.
There is a handy video on it on ebay "ford mondeo/peugeot expert 2litre hdi timing belt replacement" However might leave it to the experts, I will attempt to find a peugeot independent, as it is a HDI motor. |

I didn’t know it was the same engine in Peugeot card, but I guess with the XR5 sharing a Volvo engine it’s quite common. Best of luck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Went to the local Ford dealer and was quoted $1400. Ordered a Dayco Timing belt+water pump kit on eBay for $290 and we are doing it ourselves!

Finally tackled the timing belt change last weekend. The crankshaft bolt was really hard to move, not even with a power tool. So we had to take the starter motor out to lock the flywheel in place, and take the bolt out and see how overloaded it was with Loctite! Anyways, changed everything including the water pump until midnight.
