01 1.6 zetec, weak brakes, ABS light & other bits - telecaster
Just bought a high mileage (143,000) focus with zetec 1.6 engine.

Car is nice and tight.....only problem I can see is weak brakes and abs light showing on dash!!!!

I plan to service car next week ie: filters, plugs , oil etc.

Any pointers as to what I should be aware of considering the mileage?

Also am I right in thinking the oil for this model is semi synth 5/30?

Thanks in advance!

Idealy you need a brake check very soon rather than latter before they give up, you could try these fast fit places don't the do a free check? you don't have to get the work done but you will know the problem, a bit cheeky but so what!

At that mileage in the past have done master cylinder/servo but it needs checking through..
