I asked the Service Advisor at a large Ford dealer (Ringways Garages Ltd in Doncaster) about my 1999 2 litre Focus and he said that the shortest mileage that they had seen a failure at was 125,000 miles. At the time mine had done about 85,000 and he said it would be wasting money to change it at that mileage.
