XRfury Member 13 Member For: 19y 10m 21d Location: Townsville Posted 20/07/05 12:41 PM Share Posted 20/07/05 12:41 PM Well I got the new drive shafts fitted today and the clunking noises have almost disapeared... now it's really noticeable that the diff is clunking and whirring loudly again. So instead of continually taking this car back to the dealer with problem after problem I decided to bite the bullet and splurge on a newie (shucks all these problems I've had and I still want another of the buggers :rokon: ) So now I'm in a dilema about which car to buy, 6 or 8, man or auto??? I figure the T56 is a much better box however I still might have problems with the pissweak clutch. I've also been told the auto hasn't lived up to its hipe and is also pissweak. Either way I spose I still will have problems with the diff??? Any advice I could get from you guys would be greatly appreciated!!P.S. I have heard a rumour that Jaguar will be fitting out the falcons next year with a 6-speed auto?????

I probably would.The current day auto is a ripper me thinks. :rokon: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18928-the-saga-continues/#findComment-274557 Share on other sites More sharing options...
