fuel filters go for genuine ford ones for best fit but everything else like oil/ air filters using generic should be fine. depending if euro 5 or 6 youll be looking for denso or siemens respectively if there are any fueling issues.

very important is to get forscan and a modified elm-327 reader for diagnostics will save alot of time and money on fault finding and general service procedures.
is that rust spot new?

You can get genuine ford service “kits” on ebay for decent money. Got all the filters for my mk7 euro 5 for £35.
