I havn't hidden the mods, the exhaust would have been noticed when on the hoist and the chip is there for all to see. I am not sure weather they have see the chip though. When I took Ange (service bloke) for a drive I think he would have noticed the extra power. When I was speaking to Ange after he spoke to Ford, he said it had occurred before and that the new valve body was different to the old. It sounds like a problem that Ford has fixed already and is fixing on cars as they become aware. I have been awareof the the flaring since before I had the mods but never thought a great deal about it. I have been very impressed with the way the whole issue has been dealt with, and think both the dealer and Ford themself deserve a great deal of credit for fantastic customer service on my behalf.

Just recently broke the box and it was sent south for replacement, however they sent up another crook box by mstake and put that in. No wonder after 5 minutes of drivng I did a u-turn and tokk it back in. What goes on is scary Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7652-auto-problems/page/2/#findComment-68500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
