In all honesty Vik I think it's pretty ordinary. I agree, using power for personnal gain or revenge is not right. There should be some sort of arbitration that can be utilised when this occurs.

What a refreshing first post And . Glad to see you are happy with your T.

Just got mine back from it's 30k service on Friday, and I am wrapped. The car is running beautifully, brakes ok, pads fine, tyres great overall the car is A1. Just need to get the Gearbox and diff done and I will be a very happy camper.

I remember my first test drive in a manual T and I scared the sh#t out of myself doing a u turn.  Now I'm just used to it I guess.  The whoosh through 2nd and 3rd on a cold night still gets the blood pumping though!

Ah, yes, U-Turns are fun in the T. Unfortunately for me, the nice policeman wasn't very impressed on Friday night! Good to see another Adelaide member on here. What dealer did you get your car from and get warranty work done at?

Got it from Adrian Brian, mainly because at the time they were the only dealer with a manual T they would let me take for a decent test drive (they lent it to me for a couple of hours) as I wanted to make sure I was making the right choice. I got my Liberty from United Motors and they lent me 2 diff cars overnight in the blink of an eye. I know they were/are popular but I couldnt believe how hard it was to get a drive (It's a Falcon not a Ferrari!). Suffice to say the drive won me back! I asked another dealer (Maughn Team) for their best price over the phone (46k on road compared with rrp about 52k - getting them to give me what I thought was a good price over the phone really surprised me) and AB matched it. I couldnt believe the discount considering the popularity of the T and the wait list.

All warranty/service work till today (got the 30k done today at Stillwell in the city - just easier as I work in the CBD) has been done at Adrian Brian. Fairly happy with them. They did the brake machine under warranty without any qualms, have replaced the gear boot twice (split twice in exactly the same place). Fixed the out of shape door rubber (bulging off the windscreen) at the second attempt. They told me there was no fix for the handbrake scrape at the 15k service which Stillwell supposedly fixed today (will find out in the carpark in the morn). I had the poor start/backfire event happen once and AB reflashed the ecu - no reoccurrence since. Stillwell reflashed again today to fix the erratic idle when rolling up to lights (they said it should fix the prob and also help with fuel economy!). Not sure if its fixed yet as it was intermittant. Gave it a flogging through the hills on the way home tonight just to make sure no new probs. Felt great!!

Thanks for the welcome guys!
