Hi. I have recently bought a ford mondeo diesel out of auction.
It has a mileage of 195983km. It is an automatic diesel with 1997cc
It has been serviced regularly and the last service is at 180000km.
What should I expect for the next service in the sense of parts which need changing and how much do you think it would cost on average?
Also since this is my first diesel, what are the running cost that I should be aware of?
Thanks

Hi there,
It would be best to have the vehicle checked over to see what has or has not been replaced and this will give you a good starting point. Also if there is a service schedule/ handbook this will also tell what has been replaced and when different items are due.
