The real problem as I see it is that once a kid gets his P's he believes that he/she is a great driver when in reality getting your licence is only the beginning. I know I have a son on P's and a daughter getting them next week. The system is a lot to blame with 2 years on L's and then the whole driving test/written and hazard perception that leads these kids to think they are a whole lot better than they are. Remember you will learn a whole lot more in your first year of driving by yourself on P's than any driving instructor taught you. The real trick is to survive long enough to become a good driver.

Dont Move to Albury/Wodonga - Local Dealer $350 30K and then quoted me $420 for the 45K got it done last week at Ultratune for $158. About the same time got the wife's territory in for its 30K $400 at the dealers and when we got it home the hand brake was sticking on, brakes squealing, window trim was broken all from the service at top $$$ Stuff the dealer!

Thanks for the help guys, a couple of great tips that I will undoubtedly try on the dealer and let you know how I go

Hi all, I just took the T in for service and have noticed that the intercooler manifold cover has started to flake off where it says turbo. The whole plastic cover is brittle and soon the whole finish will peel off. Ford dealer tells me no go on warranty as it is a trim issue! Anyone had similar? Can I get it replaced under warranty?

After much stuffing around and with a fair amount of trepidation I put MAXXIS MAV-1s on the T. These suckers were 235/45/17's and only $148 a corner fitted and I thought they would probably be - No Way they are great heaps of grip in both wet and dry hold on well and sos so so quiet compared to the sp3000 I am extremely happy with performance and price.

I had a VN, VP, VR, VT, VX all berlinas the last 2 supercharged. Went down to buy a VY got sh*t from the Expensive Daewoo salesman went a test drove a T and bought it on the spot 3 months later I bought the wife a Territory. Now its all Ford Always

I agree the only people who will go through with this are those who can decide not to buy fuel on the day anyone else who uses a vehicle for work etc. like truck drivers will have to fuel up. Relax about fuel you have to have it ! If you buy a tank a week its costing about $25 extra a week so relax, chill out and fill up.

I have had exactly the same thing twice - scared the out of me but had no further symptoms. Mentioned it to ford last service and they did an ecu edit and I haven't had it since. When it happened to me I was accelerating both times - I thought it might be over boost ??
