BLKXR6T Member 22 Member For: 23y 3m 27d Location: Melb Posted 12/05/04 06:13 AM Posted 12/05/04 06:13 AM Too many manual XR6T drivers notice this excessive backlash and shunt... and it is unacceptable that Ford allow's this to continue...I drove out of the dealership at Knox yesterday, after getting my 2nd diff, and what did I hear? "clank clank clank"! BRAND NEW DIFF! hahaIt's an absolute joke really.. never buying from Ford again. I have wasted my time & money going backwards and forwards from Knox, and im really sick of it...And then theres more time & money wasted, calling Ford customer service (13FORD), and then the dealership.. backwards and forwards again..Ford treat u like their diffs/driveline shunt... .. backwards and forwards.. clank clank clank..DISCRACE FORD.. DISCRACE

It is just not good enough to expect some people to suffer with this problem when there are others out there that dont have to.... Hence ford even trying to pass this off as normal is ludicrous...
