Default Re: Mondeo tdci lifespan

'09 MB Zetec bought in 2014 @120K kms, currently has 195K kms.

Suspension renewed as it was tired. Timing belt due @200K kms (already have the parts) and will do it soon, I've got no other real concerns with how it's running because it's currently purring like a cat.

If you were to buy one and it drives well one extra test (after the typical inspection) would be to have the injectors tested, a simple leak off test will suffice. That'll give results on typical injector wear or health so to speak. Because besides the fuel pump it's a hefty bill per injector (given you have an as expected good run in other areas).
