Spend the money you save on getting the oil analysed every 2-3 changes. My old mk3 petrol had 230k on it when sold and is still going and that was 2 years ago. Always changed at 12.5k and was fine.
Oil change with Castrol magnetec and genuine ford filter each 15k miles (which I know is above the recommended 12.5k). Fuel injector nuts done up tighter when seals leaking - but seals not replaced. Runs a bit rough on start up when cold- suspect glow plug(s) . Last time I did the oil change I stripped the sump thread.
It's on 141,000 miles and had its timing belt replaced about a year ago. Full service with oil change was around April. Engine's oil level is normal and there's no leaks around the engine. One thing: the temperature gauge only seems to heat up to about 25% on the gauge, and it fluctuates now and again.

I do mine at 6k miles on a facelift 1.6tdci so yes I would recommend you do an oil and filter change now. Full service probably isn't necessary yet though, the fuel filters are expensive to change just for the sake of it. The turbo issues are not as frequent on the facelift but do still occur.
JW1982. There is no prescribed oil change interval for the B6 manual transmission. The B6 transmission is supposed to be filled for life. It is however not a bad idea to change the transmission oil when the car is between 1 to 3 Years old (when the internal parts of the transmission has bedded in). My experience is that after the transmission Ford Model: 2012 Focus 1.6 tdci econetic Ford Year: 2012 UK/Ireland Location: Surrey Automatic gearbox oil change.

Turbo failure is a well known problem of all 16 Valve versions of the 1.6 TDCI. Both the 90 HP and 109 HP versions are affected by this problem. The problem is mainly caused by the small oil capacity of this engine. The small oil capacity combined with long service intervals results in severe contamination and disintegration of the engine oil.
Ford Focus 1.6 TDCi - Does the 08-11 suffer the turbo problems of 04-07 - Peter.N. Personally I think these turbo problems are cause by the ridiculously long oil change intervals. I have done hundreds of thousands of miles in turbo diesels without a turbo failure but have always changed my oil at 5k. Ford Focus MK2 - Timing belt - to change or not change? - John F : The 1.6 Zetec sturdy cambelt drives nothing but cams and a tensioner pulley and was designed to last the life of the engine. Ford advise 10yrs/100,000m change interval as a precautionary.
Posted June 22, 2012. Yes it's fine, modern engines have come on so far in over the years and are built with certain tolerances. If it couldn't go 12,500 miles Ford would lower the interval. My Dad has a 1.4 Peugeot van and the interval on that is 20k! Quote.
There are two main diesel engine options – a 1.6 TDCi and 2.0 TDCi – with the former available in 95PS, 115PS and 105PS forms, and the latter in 140PS and 163PS guises. There's not transmission oil change interval, but if you want to do it, it's 75w Fe transmission oil. 1.7litres. there is a drain and refill/level plug. The level plug is a bit awkward to get at. I use a bit of hose slightly smaller diameter to garden hose with a funnel on the end to pour the fluid in. Lots of PSA 1.6L HDi (TDCI) turbo failures. 2. Ford have issued a Bulletin, so this is taken that Ford acknowledges there is a problem. 3. Danish parts supplier FTZ say that problem is caused by badly designed sump. Removal of the sump drain plug does not result in total removal of old oil. Leaving sludge in sump. 4. P5fTsS.
