Q
Does the Focus ST have a belt or chain?
The 2014 Ford Focus ST 2.0 Ecoboost uses a timing chain instead of a belt. Both timing chains and belts are used to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring that the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the appropriate times to allow the engine to inhale and exhale properly. However, there are differences between the two. Timing chains are more durable. Their service life usually depends on the vehicle maintenance conditions. Under normal circumstances, their lifespan can reach 100,000 kilometers or more, and they generally don't require regular replacement. On the other hand, timing belts have a relatively shorter lifespan. Typically, they need to be replaced after driving approximately 60,000 kilometers. Otherwise, it may cause the engine to malfunction. Thus, the Focus ST offers relatively straightforward maintenance for its timing system, allowing owners to avoid concerns about replacing timing belts after a certain mileage.

Q
What's the Road Tax of Toyota Veloz? How to Calculate It?
The road tax calculation for the Toyota Veloz is based on its 1.5L engine displacement (1497cc). According to the standards of JPJ in Malaysia, the annual fee for private cars with a displacement below 1600cc is RM 90 (base rate) plus RM 25 insurance fee (a total of RM 115). If you purchase a Veloz for commercial use (company - registered) or car - rental purposes, the rate will be slightly higher, starting at around RM 180. It should be noted that the road tax may also vary slightly depending on the vehicle's age. Vehicles over 10 years old need to pay an additional 50% surcharge (similar to the tax rate for old cars). Since the Veloz is equipped with a naturally - aspirated engine and has a moderate displacement, its road tax is relatively economical, making it suitable for long - term ownership by family users. If you plan to compare models, the road taxes of the Perodua Alza or Honda BR - V with the same displacement are also similar. It is recommended that car owners check the latest rates through MyJPJ or at JPJ counters when renewing their road taxes to ensure they pay the correct amount.
