Guest newl Guests Posted 04/07/06 09:41 AM Share Posted 04/07/06 09:41 AM thing. The Ford badge is the most annoying as it will eventually bend right out of the recess, must be a problem with the adheasives they use. ←I think that might be the case. I've a similar issue with the scuff inserts, they just do not want to stay stuck down and keep curling on the ends. Might have to mention that to the dealer when I drop her off on Friday for a few minor things:(Back on topic)* Bonnet alignment off on passenger side (slightly raised above fender)* Low speed power steering clicking (had this issue with my '04 BA Turbo as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTSBGY Member 259 Member For: 18y 11m 17d Posted 04/07/06 02:19 PM Share Posted 04/07/06 02:19 PM Mine has been in for a few things:- Rear Main seal- leaking diff (twice)- Squeeking belt/ Belt shavings (still squeeking) Is it a pully?Problems that have to be fixed:- Steering wheel badge is dinted- Passenger window is slow going up- Centre console where gear stick is, one side is popping up due to not clipping in, may have been brocken. Took for a service a while back and they said they changed the leather gear surround as it was ripped or warn (it wasnt) they mustve damaged it somehow and had to replace it and the plstic surround is now brocken and isnt clipped in on one angle.Nesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
