I took a ride in Grug's Phoon when he'd just gotten his done in the early days and it spun 2-3 at barely any throttle hahaha. Not good for my daily.

I'm hoping I can learn the drive around it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah not keen on slamming changes day in day out though it should prolong the life of the box...but I'm in need of a rebuild anyway so probably not much point, I imagine a retune would be needed after messing with the internals.

"are" abbreviated, and repeated...any way. stoopid ford of mine has another problem. keeps triggering abs and tc fault, get them on the dash display, along with their lights and a "!" in a triangle.just discovered when driving it at night and noticing things didn't light up like normal, that I have no brake lights.of course, now it is my problem to get it to ford, and leave it with them for X amount of hours because the pricks wont say "it'll take this long" or "come by at X O'clock and we will be able to start on it then" leaving me with the choice to wait for what is probably a 5 minute fix.I'll be amazed if I buy another ford...
