They have had the ute for 4 working days now and still no resolve. The parts for the rear end are meant to be here today but still no word on when the power steering pump will turn up.

And no they wont take a pump of another new vehicle to replace it. Edited 17/07/12 12:32 AM by zexxr8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zexxr8 Donating Members 28 Member For: 12y 7m 11d Gender: Male Posted 19/07/12 12:03 AM Author Share Posted 19/07/12 12:03 AM So yesterday a new power steering pump mysteriously turned up and they fitted the whole new rear end. Service manager said car was all done and tested and ready to go. Thought I'd go for a drive with the manager before I left to make sure it was all good, and of course the new diff is really noisy, especially when decelerating from 110-80 and then from 60-40. Workshop foreman came for a drive and he agreed that it wasn't right and wasn't sure what problem was as the diff came brand new from Dana. So now waiting to see what will happen next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
