Maybe it might be a fanny low and that's why it sometimes slips 4th. I never abuse my car. LolOne thing I do is let it warm up until the water temp gets to where it has to be.

"Captain Retard" Member 1,417 Member For: 10y 9m 18d Gender: Male Location: Shellharbour NSW Posted 22/04/15 09:44 PM Share Posted 22/04/15 09:44 PM I've read of plenty of ZFs "Flaring" with heat exchangers.It's going to be very hard to back up any form of ZF cooling when people are continually playing with tunes etc.I've noticed my wife's stock FG XR6Ts ZF is a little funny when cold, just the first 500m, it's been like that for the last 100,000kms so I'm not worried about it.Now for the BIG QUESTION, what's the difference in dollars between air cooled and coolant cooled, fitting it yourself???

Or genuine Ford? Do you remember the price at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
