A lot of you on this forum say that the 6spd automatic on FG is much stronger than the BA 5spd that's why I change from manual on my BA to an automatic FG. Honestly, I am a bit disappointed on performance of the FG. The automatic gear box was so smooth that I can't feel much G-force like in the manual, and I don't like feeling of the kick-down in gear in the automatic when suddenly flooring the accelerator on over taking. It does go fast when you look at the speedometer but I don't feel it as fast as my old manual BA.Any way, the car was great except a minor problem on power window that I just realise. When I wind up or down my window, it does go smooth and fast but I can hear a noise from the mechanism of the motor inside. Not loud but enough for me to hear and feel the motor is not healthy. Is it normal? As I bought my car from dealer and still under 5000kms guarantee, is this covered under warantee? I don't want to go back to dealer unless this is a big problem as I live very far away.Thanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/77403-sounds-on-power-window/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your paperwork and if it's in the time remember the squeaky gate gets the oil..
