Month/year build:June 2005
Spec Level: Zetec
KMs at time of fault: 28,000
Symtoms:Sever wobble under acceleration between 60-75kmh
Fault: "out of round" CV shaft
Fixed? By: Not yet - parts ordered
Comments: When they replaced the rear engine mount this problem was apparent, I specificly asked Sinclair Ford (Penrith) to road test the car between 60-75kmh when they did the replaced the engine mount. I picked the car up only to find the wobble was still there. Either they didn't road test the car at the speed I said it happens or whoever did road test it somehow thought a wobble that vibrates the whole front end of the car is normal???
