KEN 24T Gandalf the Grey, Maiar of Manwë and Varda, Team HgAg/Sneaky Member 7,371 Member For: 21y 9m 12d Gender: Male Location: The Shire, Middle Earth Posted 03/04/06 10:57 PM Share Posted 03/04/06 10:57 PM My Precioussss is coming out of warranty (end of July) and I'm wondering what I should be checking as a last chance to get things done under warranty. One fog lamp has stopped working recently, so I have to put her in for that anyway ... Any ideas on where/what I should also be checking?Thanks in advance.

Posted 03/04/06 11:37 PM Share Posted 03/04/06 11:37 PM The best two options is either nrma end of warranty check and they will list the problems for you or an indepent mechanic who could check it over for you and than you go to ford with the list of faults and have them fix it.Ian Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24516-end-of-warranty/#findComment-366936 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, the day after you pay to have it checked it might throw a leg.However it is always good to have a panel shop check all over it for rust - they know the places to look.

This is an absolute must and piece of mind for about $185 I think. They are experts at finding problems and will advise you of what will be covered under warranty. Also consider an extended manufacturer warranty from Ford, only if its wort it. Dont use anyone elses, like Wynn's, as they are not worth the paper they are written on.

I think the three year is $995 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24516-end-of-warranty/#findComment-367113 Share on other sites More sharing options...
