Didn't do him much good really, all things considered.My EF2 has done 180 + thousand kilometres and no problems.Luck of the draw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a manual and changed my diff. What do you mean by driveline snatch.All I know that it now doesn't whine. Well only drove a few km after that so the real test is still to come.

BLKXR6T Member 22 Member For: 21y 8m 16d Location: Melb Posted 12/05/04 06:10 AM Share Posted 12/05/04 06:10 AM Too many manual XR6T drivers notice this excessive backlash and shunt... and it is unacceptable that Ford allow's this to continue...I drove out of the dealership at Knox yesterday, after getting my 2nd diff, and what did I hear? "clank clank clank"! BRAND NEW DIFF! hahaIt's an absolute joke really.. never buying from Ford again. I have wasted my time & money going backwards and forwards from Knox, and im really sick of it...And then theres more time & money wasted, calling Ford customer service (13FORD), and then the dealership.. backwards and forwards again..Ford treat u like their diffs/driveline shunt... .. backwards and forwards.. clank clank clank..DISCRACE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just a threadmine from over 12 months ago. Methinks it will sink back to the deep quickly...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
