Stalling Problems

[Guest]

I tell ya this is sickening,mine is 13 months old ,must say it hasent stalled as such but hase come close a few times

As a group we have to do some thing..I would never buy a car that stalls on you (didnt read that in the propaganda..not to mention the brakes)WE ARE MUGS if we let ford get away with this,does somewon out

there know the right ropes to pull

Hope you get more response than I did with the brake issue.

at last good news about stalling just received latest update B30 which is mainly for stalling on BA's calibrated mine today and no stalling yet touch wood not even a stumble on deceleration with a/c on which is good news for ford and customers

What he said guy's.B30 version software should have been recieved by your dealers from yesterday onwards.This is the baby with all the good stuff on board.So if you're suffering the dreaded stall/low idle get in touch with your dealer today.

Hi Fordtech

Thanks for the great info.

My car has "stalled" twice in 9000km (at about 1400 and 3000km). Other than that it is great, but there is a definite diff whine at 95 to 100kph.

I would really appreciate your opinion on the software upgrade - should I ask for it or should I adopt the attitude "if it aint broke....."?

Also, is it worth pursuing the diff noise or am I just as likely to get another with the same whine and possibly more problems as well (clunk, vibration etc)? What % of diffs in your experience have that period whine?

Thanks

Your right there zeke.If it aint playing up and the car in general is running fine dont mess with it.As long as you dont get the dreaded stall when you least expect it.

As for the diff,there is a rather long backorder list for them so persevere and get it done when there is one available.But as you say you may get one that's not much different to the one that's already in the car now.Most of the "new" diffs are ones that have been returned to the manufacturer ,reset and sent out again.

My new XL SE Manual ute stalls all the time when pulling up at lights hot and cold revs also go up and down from 750-250 untill it stalls.

"Is the B30 Update only for XR6T or does it also apply to poverty pack ford utes?"

ALSO does anyone have a shudder on take off? mine is very bad. FORD in the Northen Teritory says its a ford thing but I do not beleve them.

Fordtech,

I had the new PCM calibrations done on Feb 25 after getting the Office of Fair Trading involved. My concern is that the calibration may not be the most current (B30), since you have indicated that the disks have only just been issued to dealers.

Do you think I should get it re-done?

Thanks.
