Brake Shudder2. Vibration felt through all gears and when idling now. Really bad above 803. Grinding sunroof4. Squeaking drivers seat5. Oil and Filter Change6. Reverse gear keeps dis-engaging (Auto)Couple of other minors that I cant remember, but I hope this vibration and brake shudder gets fixed, it's really ........ me off...I got it in for a couple of days, and am driving my old mans VN which is stuffed as well, can't take it above 60 without the tranny locking....

Wheel balance - they took it for a spin down the freeway and it was all good. I'll check it out when I pick it up tonight. Not sure about the idling vibration though, forgot to ask.3. they reckon its the motor which needs to be looked at by a sunroof repairer.4. fixed5. done6. computer update applied.I will check all of this when I pick up the car.I took it to another dealer today, to see if the service was any different than Peter Warrens so I don't think I have a right to ask for a free hire car..And I don't want to take it back to Peter Warren cause they are a bunch of wankers!!I'll let you know tomorow how I go.

Can't even get the oil right, unbelievable, how hard could it be to take oil from the right drum or container, its not brain surgery, at least they remembered some kind of oil Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/5695-more-warranty-work/#findComment-45495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
