It's on 141,000 miles and had its timing belt replaced about a year ago. Full service with oil change was around April. Engine's oil level is normal and there's no leaks around the engine. One thing: the temperature gauge only seems to heat up to about 25% on the gauge, and it fluctuates now and again.
I'm on my second Mk2.5 (the Mk2.5 was made from 2008 to 2011) 1.6Tdci and my driving pattern (75% motorway, 25% urban) results in a yearly average of 62mpg. To put that into perspective due to rush-hour traffic volumes my motorway speeds are a maximum of about 60-65mph and the urban parts 30mph or less. The weekly (specifically last week) high
Oil change with Castrol magnetec and genuine ford filter each 15k miles (which I know is above the recommended 12.5k). Fuel injector nuts done up tighter when seals leaking - but seals not replaced.

The 1.6 TDCi diesel engine's belt should be replaced at least every 180,000 kilometres or 10 years, whichever comes first.
