Had mine done on Friday and so far so good and the changes just feel firmer.Only got one last item to knock off my list, need to put one weekend aside and address the damm creaks and rattles on the doors.SPICTell me the rattle in your doors doesnt start happening when your on the highway doing 100km/h? sounds like the droped some screws down in the door frame?Also my ZF is sh*tting me to tears, I drive it in manual cause its so annoying.

I took it to ford and they said they couldn't replicate it but I didn't have much petrol for testing so I'll have to take it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a step by step tutorial where a user used the single sided rubber tape to stop all the rubbing but for the life of me I can't seem to find that post now.

You need to take them for a drive and show them, each car is a bit different but for me I was able to replicate the issue by slowly taking off very slowly let the car change into second them come to a slow stop and keep on repeating this. In my case after about 10-15 repetitions the lurch becomes quite severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEDLYWEPN Member 11 Member For: 14y 6m 7d Gender: Male Location: WA Posted 29/09/11 06:47 AM Share Posted 29/09/11 06:47 AM So what should we be specifically asking our dealer for to resolve the clunk/thus lurch young 01??? Just mention there's apparently mean't to be a software upgrade for the zf??? Because I've been experiencing this since very early on in my08 FG XR6T's life. Ford won't acknowledge any problem and can never fault it....Cheers,Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there maybe only be one or two guys per state? well that what ford told me. who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
