I have had my T5 3 years and 40k (now on 140k)
Clutch slave cylinder went - complete clutch kit (£950) Aircon radiator (£250) Oil Separator (£250) Cambelt and tensioners (£300) Leaks inside car (sunroof drains) Rear Wheel bearing - full hub (£150) Battery (£80) and A gallon of unleaded every 25 miles ! If you floor it, you get torque steer like an old vauxhall, as the ECU tries to reign in all the power (The 4 wheel drive cars may be a little better, but I have not driven one) It's not been good on maintenance costs, these are the additional costs on top of routine servicing |

Are those prices fitted? Decent skf rear hubs can be had for £60, different engine I know, but my clutch slave cylinder went on 2.0d and sourced new clutch kit, slave cylinder and dual mass flywheel for £350 (Luk kit)

Yes, those prices are fitted. The clutch kit for a T5/Focus RS 2.5 inc DMF and slave cylinder isn't cheap or easy to fit.

This later T5 has a polestar engine software upgrade available which takes it to the proper High pressure T5 260 bhp .
