Ford servicing in Maidstone, Kent

Ford servicing at JFA covers everything from the Fiesta, Focus, Puma and Kuga to the Transit, Transit Custom and Ranger, plus the ST and RS models. Many Fords use a variable service interval, and the 1.0 EcoBoost runs its cambelt in oil, so using oil to Ford's exact specification matters for the life of the belt.

We service your Ford to its schedule, use the correct oil, reset the indicator with diagnostic equipment and record the service. On EcoBlue diesels and vans we check the DPF and AdBlue system and read any stored faults, and on ST and RS models we look closely at boost hoses, brakes and fluids.

Ford know-how

What we look at on a Ford

1.0 EcoBoost wet belt

The 1.0 EcoBoost runs its cambelt in oil, and the oil must meet Ford's specification. Using the wrong oil shortens the belt's life, so we always use the correct spec.

Ford's service intervals

Many Fords have a variable service indicator. We check what is due and reset it with diagnostic equipment.

Diesels and AdBlue

Transit, Ranger and EcoBlue diesels use a DPF and AdBlue. We check both and read any stored faults as part of the service.

ST and RS models

Fiesta ST, Focus ST and RS models work harder. We check boost hoses, brakes and fluids with that in mind.

Common questions

How much is a Ford service?
Our guide prices start at £169 for an interim (Bronze) service, £239 for a full (Silver) service and £339 for a major (Gold) service, including VAT. Some Ford engines take specialist or large-capacity oil, which can add an oil surcharge, so we confirm the exact price from your registration first.
Will servicing my Ford here affect the warranty?
No. Block exemption rules mean any qualified garage can service a car under manufacturer warranty, as long as the correct schedule, parts and fluids are used and the work is recorded. We follow the Ford schedule and stamp the book or update the digital record.
How long does a Ford service take?
Most interim services take a few hours and full services are usually same-day. If we find anything else, we call you with photos and a price before doing any extra work.
Can you do an MOT at the same time?
Yes. We can arrange an MOT alongside the service so the car is only off the road once.
