I bit the bullet and had the selector fork replaced.
The car is learning again.
250 km so far.
But bangs and rattles in low gears, plus shudders in reverse.
High speed when you get there is great.
Remembering that this is a two stage gearbox with two clutches and a
tcm which makes it think it's automatic, I still fall back on my 30 plus years in automotive engineering and lean towards the
TCM.
Just beats the hell out of me why Ford is still reluctant to fit a replacement?
Especially when it has a field service action listed under extended warranty. 14M02.
I now have a meeting with the dealer and Ford customer service to see what they think about next...
I have also asked for recompense for out of pocket and parts I have paid for that made no difference.
Oh I must add that something ?.. caused it to drain the battery and lose the
tcm memory the other day.
Car was on level 4 in a multi storey Car park.
It was an interesting recovery and two truck job.
New battery fitted.
TCM re programmed again.
Plus towing.
My cost again...
I also said to Ford buy the car from me, because I can't sell it and certainly cannot rely on it.
