I've read of people on this forum that have over 130,000 miles on the original injectors and others that seem to have had replacements under warranty at not much over 30,000miles. It does seem to be Ford dealers first response to engine problems is to replace the injectors, fine when they're paying, bad when their not so difficult to tell you what expected injector life is!
It's a similar story with DMF's, cars with well over 100,000 miles on the original DMF & clutch, others with replacements needed well below 100,000 miles.
There are a very large number of Mondeo TDCi's on the road and although there are a large number of posts in this section of the forum about problems, there must be a vast number that just keep going.
I read a lot of posts about problems but still bough a 3 year old TDCi with 83,000 miles on it and, although it's early days and only having put 5,000 additional miles on it, I don't regret it yet but I do have a pretty comprehensive warranty
To add to this we will shortly be looking for a TDCi estate for my wife and I'll be happy with a 115bhp 5 speed, the 6 speed box is largely unecessary unless you spend a lot of time travelling at 60mph plus and it seems that the 115bhp engines aren't as hard on injectors and DMF's.
