wiggy Member 14 Member For: 21y 2m 22d Location: Geelong Posted 08/12/04 12:19 AM Share Posted 08/12/04 12:19 AM Gday all,I am just wondering if anyone has had any problems with the centre wheel piece (the bit that has Ford on it). I had one fall out at about 9,000 kms and in the last month or so the other 3 have all come out (about 15,000 on the clock).I noticed that they only have plastic clips holding them in and on all of mine they have broken away.I know that it isn't anything major, but hey it looks house without them.CheersWiggy Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/14419-has-anyone-experienced/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was very annoying. I haven't actually had one come off though. I know of other people that have had them come off or come loose, so it would seem to be pretty common.On a positive, the dealer should replace them under warranty. Mine did.

I meanj really, what odds are that 2 of the 4 centre caps could fall out in one day/night...so just keep an eye on where you park your XR at night time...

The new ones are fitted with silicon and no more problems..
