Lets just say there were some complications...........................

Its coming, but its gone as soon as the ZF goes in. Hope this trans last 10 months - piece of crap they are!

There is over 8 thousand dollars worth of warranty work been done too.....

Auto fluid was black, and the front pump has absolutely gone - Brett you were right, scored the old 4:50pm special, good old chook plucker - LOL :hihi:

Will divulge the full story on the cruise - but i wil say this ford warranty is ^%#^**&% *&^$*&$*&*^_#(, power ford have been nothing but fantastic!!!!
Good work guys!

Agree! Would also explian the large amounts of smoke and burning smells, if the pump went, then went gears and bands.........
Black as Tar that oil was.

Car weas not modified - as quoted by dealer "The whole car is stock".
Ford warranty are just &^$%(!@*#^)(^(@( (*^%#(*!&^(*@^(*^

Moral of this lesson - by an E-Series

Should of bought a Toyota, fit the blower to the V6...............

Well at least if i got the cast iron - i would not have to worry about blowing autos, there is barely enough power there to make the trans go.....

: :the_finge

As for holding together - we can debate that one, i left A-Series out a for a reason..... Why? Because AUIII XR8 MAN has one.. :hihi:

And as for a good car - Jury will be forever out on that one.....

Ford honoured the warranty.....................

But as for silver slug - you drive a V8, you are forgiven for not seeing the light.

No it's not a slug, it a ricer snail. What about the computer did they fix that as well? Did they fit the 2 extra cylinder while they at it?

Have not got the car back yet, hope to have it this afternoon.

As far as i know the ecu will be flashed, cleared and all the rest.
And yeah - they did fix the missing 2 cylinders, they upgraded it with that turbo :hihi:

**Bluehoon** · 05-05-2005, 09:40 PM

Got the silver thing back this avo. :1syellow1

Car has never driven that good, or shifted so smoothly or firmly.
Friday special from day 1 i say.

But word of advice for any turbo driver, DO NOT let ford flash that ecu, absolute disgrace the latest flash is... Not impressed...

I got the turbo for the power and acceleration (fun), after this latest flash i may of well got a V6 camry and put a blower on it (or a unichip and the camry would still nail my car), run far better than fords latest round of intelligence...

Not happy!!!
