Does the Ford Territory have a cam-belt driven?
Asked by Dean
Does the 2011 Ford Territory have a cam-belt driven or is the camshaft chain-driven, taking into account it is a diesel engine?
Answered by CarsGuide
1 Aug 2022The engine in your Territory uses a rubber timing belt which the trade recommends be changed every 100,000km. However, it’s not that simple. This engine also uses a second toothed rubber belt to drive the high-pressure fuel pump critical to the operation of a modern, common-rail diesel engine.
This second belt is located at the other end of the engine, between the engine and firewall, and the recommendation is also to change this belt at the same, 100,000km, interval.
Many owners also find the timing-belt change-point is a good time to change the water pump and thermostat at the same time to avoid disassembling the engine a second time should those components fail.
