Well mine has done 44k and its 6 years old for peace of mind for what the price is to do the cambelt i have just got it changed today. There was a chirping sound from cold start up which also made me do it, a dry tensioner is never good!

Hi there . I have a transit connect 2006 . Over the last two weeks . After driving around and coming out of the shop I put my key in the ignition turn it and only the lights come on , it don't turn over . After about half hour turn key again and it starts . This has happened twice in two weeks . Any ideas what the problem could be ? . Thanks .
