Took my car in to the local ford dealer here in Albury when I got it back it had no power at all. Easy fix I just tightened up ALL the clamps on the intake piping. All loose not even finger tight. Then when I gave it a bit it back fired like a mo-fo. Took it back and told them to regap the plugs like I told them the first time. Service manager told me they did and it must be another fault. I made a bet with him. Said I would wait while they took the plugs out and measure them if they were correct I would pay if not I get a refund. I was right and got my money back. Not happy Jan they clearly don't know whats happening.

A few weeks later I got talking to a guy down the street that said a few of his mates love my car and how fast it was. I was sort of excited that people were talking about my car thinking maybe they had seen me down at a recent car show. So I asked how did they know about my car and he said they were mechanics down at ford and took it for a "little Spin".

OMFG I wanted to go down to ford and go spastic but what evedence do I have. I will never go back.

I'm seriously stressing out about the upcoming warranty inspection on my ZF gearbox.

surely someone must be able to recommend a half decent Ford dealer in northern Sydney for this sort of thing? please...

JC, I've heard that Peter Warren at Smithfield is well equipped and tends to do good jobs on their servicing.

Then again, I've also heard that City Ford is good, but they didn't manage fix my vehicle's slightly shaky idling problem.
