dusty turbine Member 90 Member For: 17y 1m 8d Gender: Male Location: Holbrook NSW Posted 25/05/08 03:47 AM Share Posted 25/05/08 03:47 AM Had my turbo since jan this year, its BA mkII and the LSD isn't that tight. Spin it on the spot and it smokes both wheels but when I hit the go pedal through a corner (even in the rain) most of the time only the inside lets go. I've only done a couple of decent burnouts but I do enjoy doing a little drift on wet days. Its fairly stock, just a pod filter and monza intercooler. Just wondering if it is worth putting it back to stock and trying for warranty or paying for it myself? Anyone know if warranty will work or how much it will cost to rebuild?

As Josh said you can't really go in and demonstrate to them by doing a huge line-locker in their car park!

dusty turbine Member 90 Member For: 17y 1m 8d Gender: Male Location: Holbrook NSW Posted 28/05/08 08:48 AM Author Share Posted 28/05/08 08:48 AM Thanks for the info. I'll get them to change the diff oil at service in a week or two. It's due for 45000km service, not sure if they have to do it anyway. I live on a dirt road so ill give them the "I got boged" excuse for the ripped up tyres. Don't really want to take the intercooler off again but I'm thinking it might be a good idea. They didn't say anything about my missing middle muffler after last warranty issue. C how I go. cheers.

Very happy! My tires are very unhappy! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45876-lsd-issues-need-advice/#findComment-689071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
