  1. Take copy of the receipt, ask for the service manager and then staple it to his forehead, take your car keys and drive home.
  2. This all sounds like prices and bs that a woman would normally get at a car dealer. Did your wife take the car in for the repairs?
  3. ALot of those 'additives' costs are like the 'paint protection' they offer you when you buy the car new. The actually do 'NOTHING" and charge you.
  4. I think your invoice can be used as 1 of those visa card adds.
  5. U would have surely signed the work order authorising them to do all this, bu the costs might not have been on there?

    Considering new they are 56k + tax etc you will need to try get a ex demo or one with 10,000km for 52k.
  7. I guess wait until all the sh*t engineering ford did on the car makes its self visible and get them fixed under warranty and then do as you like.
  8. I concur with the 'There is 3/5ths of fu.ck all to do in this town!' comment!! hahaha Was in the city for a meeting with GHD a few weeks ago and was expecting peak hour chaos like in Melbourne city at 8.30am on a working day, but Canberra city was more like a Sunday in Melbourne. People I am working with said that 90% of people living there are there because their partners got offered a job there so they came along with them. I am guessing the pay is good there to entice people to come live there?
  9. I recently had to take my car in to get the diff seals fixed, which meant the diff had to be removed from the car. I was a little worried that they would try and void doing it under warranty as the car is lowered with 20's and has a BOV, even though these items have no relevance to the leaking diff, but they didn't say anything. 1 thing that pissed me off is that Ford wont pay all the expanses for a hire car if they are fixing something ever a claim under warranty, so if they were to take 1 week to fix the car you would need to pay the insurance for that week for the hire car. I want to get just the tune done on my car for now, but since they ca apparently now check the number of ecu flashes another risk of voiding warrant if some of their sh*te engineering falls apart on the car in the future.
  10. I will be spending some time in Canberra over the next few months as I am managing a odour control system which is going in and around the new housing estate at West Macgregor. Only been up for a few day trips so far so havent really looked around in that area. What are some decent places to stay, eat and visit while up there?
  11. Looks good but comfort levels go out the doors with the rubber band tyre width on 22's and lowered springs. Handling also goes out the door. I got 20 on my FG and the ride quality is noticeably different
  12. They wont stop someone removing the new cap and taking your petrol or worse putting something else in your tank I dont think? I saw an add for non-return caps in Motor Mag but havent really looked into great detail for them
  13. Theres replacement caps with non-return valves so you don't need to remove the cap for filling. Stupid idea having non-lockable caps!!
  14. What was the supply and install cost?
  15. No videos yet?
  16. What did that all cost you? Can you record what the car sounds like from inside with the new exhaust?
  17. As you drive a few km's it will drop to around 520km unless you have a secret second fuel tank
  18. I wouldn't be putting full teins on the car as the whole concept of this model is geared more towards comfort not track car.
  19. I got pedders in my G6E-T and they sit really nice. With a boot load of gear and 5 people in the car the rear tyres are only 1mm from touching the guards, but have never rubbed. The fronts rub at full lock though.
  20. Blow back is normal but it shouldnt be leaking out the top of the engine, it usually gets sucked back into the combustion chamber. You can stop this by having a drop out pot
  21. If you are to trade in your car to a dealer wont a ford stamped service book help the price for trade in compared to an ultratune?
  22. How are they going to know if your cars been lowered after 1 August? If your in a 09 model car just say it was done in July. Lazy b*stards aint gonna check your vin number to see the car was manufactured after 1st August.
  23. Looks good, but u know the Expensive Daewoo people will say its a copy of the monaro bonnet.
  24. Just got a call from service manager, they need the car again as the diff leak they didnt believe me was there has leaking side seals so they need to drop the diff to fix it!!! FFS aint ford known for their reliable diffs???
