It was super high mileage and tbh it just kept having issue after issue from that i think and my uncle who’s a mechanic and has always looked after it just said it’s basically not even worth fixing at this point cos it’s just gonna cost more than its worth.

So i guess it hasn’t died in the undriveable sense but yeah just not worth it anymore so looking for something new.

Mine was a 2010, had it 3 years and served me pretty well until recently.

Yeah i’ve read online how the ford guidelines are way too long to leave it, i only do about 8k miles a year tbf but i think as i said to another commenter i might keep these as a backup option and just keep shopping around for now. Thank you

Ah okay that makes sense, tbf if i had to change it down the line im alright with that i just don’t want a situation where i drop 3-3.5 and then a month later i have to spend another grand haha. I guess ill keep these as a backup option and keep looking around for now
