Timing Belts

[jacko22]

Hi,

I have a 2003 Ford KA 1300cc. It has done 43,000 miles and I have been advised that I should consider getting the timing belt replace (just in case). Someone has just suggested to me that this car may not have a timing belt but a timing chain ! Does anybody know ? Also, when is the "recommended" time for a precautionary timing belt change please.

Many thanks in advance.

Regards,

Jack

Hi Jack.
I think you will find that your car is chained, To be 100% for your self satisfaction get your VIN + Chass No, they are on your V5 Contact your local Fords Agent explain your request & they will tell you for certain.
