loaded Member 77 Member For: 22y 7m 21d Location: sydney Posted 22/11/04 11:24 AM Posted 22/11/04 11:24 AM My clutch was stuffed before I drove away from the dealer the day I picked the car up brand new. Pre car obviously had some fun with it. 3000k's later the second clutch began to slip and I can tell you that my wife drives the car with 2 babies in the back,so driving style has nothing to do with it. I told Ford about it and somehow they can't get the clutch to slip when their mechanics drive it , so no new clutch for me.
