I was down at the local Ford dealers FPV workshop this morning and learnt that the company has recently released new stiffer diff bushes for turbos.

Apparently the new bushes are already being put in production cars, but they are not yet available via spare parts, should only be a week or two.

So if your car is still under warranty and you have 'clunks' or 'bangs' in the backend (as I do) I suggest you go lobby for replacements.

My car is lowered, has stronger springs and after market sway bars, but the guys at the FPV workshop still say that there should be no problem warranty wise.

If your car is out of, or does not qualify for warranty you will be anally raped in a most severe manner I would suspect.

That being the case, contact your tuner or P@@ @ Wholesale suspension

Wholesale Suspension - Shock Absorbers, Lowering, King Springs, Lift Kits, Coilovers

Would do this at next service but ford service costs are a rip off.

Few hours work to replace?

between 4-6 hours ( no not just 5 farkin) from what I understand.

best ring around and get some quotes, all will depend largely on the labour charge out per hour.

Just like hookers, some cost you $ 200/hr , some a lot less

A professional job, or a quick and dirty

LOL @ P@@...........?? PATAT?

very interesting! has this fixed the problems in the backend

Just like hookers, some cost you $ 200/hr , some a lot less

What about a $5000per hour hooker paid pro rata for 5 minutes (only 416 bucks)

you started this, not me

LOL @ P@@...........?? PATAT?

sounds like a machine gun patatatatatat.....patatattata. Machine gun felatio ? is there any other kind?

oh yeah about time they did somthing about it iam on my second one now and think it has destroyed itself again so at the 30,000k service hopefully they replace it witht the stiffer one

My FG is due for a service next month and is still under warranty, so this is interesting to me. Just to clarify if there is in fact anything wrong with my car, the rear end noises that result from a faulty diff are not the same as the clunking noise when you jump on and off (mainly off) the throttle?? Thanks guys
