Either way now I understand a little more about Ford warranty and can now see the errors that I have made and I dont blame ford warranty for any of this situation.

LightningXR6T Member 197 Member For: 19y 10m Location: Newcastle NSW Posted 11/10/06 03:05 AM Share Posted 11/10/06 03:05 AM Hey Mickey, sorry to hear about your troubles. But as stated “you play you pay”. This is why I’m considering returning my car to standard. If my trans sh*t it self, I do not have the $$ to fix it, plus the misses would tear my n?ts out with a chainsaw. My T has only done 500klm since the custom tune, but the torque this thing produces is HUGE. Don’t get me wrong it feels awesome, but it can’t be good for the trans.
