Where could I buy a new 4spd auto for my BA? This one is making a slight grinding noise when backing off the revs in 4th.CheersMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took down the details and called a local Ford dealer who are booking it in diagnose the problem and report back to Ford. If the dealer reports back that it is a fault, Ford says they may contribute some money/parts towards it. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took it to a local mechanic who put it on the hoist. Once we got it up to 60km, you could hear the noise coming str8 from the box. Edited 29/06/10 05:52 AM by RHR No need to quote above post.

Mechinic did check the transmission fluid and said it was clean. Edited 29/06/10 05:53 AM by RHR No need to quote above post.
