Id be very careful asking for a full frontal picture from [MENTION=25292]TeamDenno[/MENTION]Looks great. Any change you have a full front picture?
Glad that they are getting to the bottom of the noise with the shocks. I assume that your still happy with the set up?Had mine serviced yesterday for a 2-yearly service. $270.00 all told including oil and filter change. This was after a $100.00 deduction as part of the Ford Protect Owner Advantage 2 years additional warranty I took out.
They had a look at the noise I'm experiencing from the left rear suspension - sounds like the spring moving on the rubber mounting pad. They couldn't trace the noise and have called in Shockworks to advise as apparently a couple of other owners have experienced the same noise from the same location.
Driver's side puddle light replaced following the Pony showing dandruff.
They've ordered a new oil cooler without me asking as my car is covered by the TSB. They say it's not the seals but an issue with materials. I don't think the full story is known in dealer land but I'm going to go along with it just in case something does happen and it will in the car's service history.
Anyway, I always have the cars serviced at Sinclair Ford and have a good relationship with them. The one thing I always them is not to wash the car as it's Shadow Black! The AWE cat-back exhaust always sounds great when they drive it into the workshop.
All up, I'm very satisfied with the car and the level of service.
There is a well known rattle which originates from under the headlight switch/dial trim.Anyway the car has developed a rattle in the driver side air vent (far right not the centre dash
Thanks Drew yep that's the one.There is a well known rattle which originates from under the headlight switch/dial trim.
Apply a bit of pressure to that area and see if it temporarily disappears.
I believe the hi-tech fix involves wedging some kind of cloth under there.that's the one.
Hi Paul,Glad that they are getting to the bottom of the noise with the shocks. I assume that your still happy with the set up?
So my service for the first year was $445 in Canberra. I assume this is about right for Canberra with a captive audience. Anyway the car has developed a rattle in the driver side air vent (far right not the centre dash) and a vibration in the parcel shelf on rough bitumen. Anyway I picked up the car and they said that they couldn't hear anything.
Right
So I got the service manager in the car and within 2 minutes of driving I identified the noise and they agreed I wasn't imagining things. Good to know. So the car will go back in at some point to get adjustment under warranty.
From what I know, there are 12 points of adjustment on the Shockworks Coilover kit... Mine is currently set on 9.Hi Paul,
I am very happy with the Shockworks, just about everyone who has them fitted goes for the "softest" setting which, if one drives mostly on city roads, is bordering on firm. I certainly wouldn't want it any firmer, and I still have a fair bit of sidewall with the 35 tyres.
I don't know, but since I got the car back, it does seem to be a bit more sprightly performance-wise. Also got a "free" satnav upgrade with the service.
I'm glad they heard the noise themselves - I think they knew what to expect as I'm not the first to experience it.
I would be a bit annoyed too in your situation but you seem to have pointed in the right direction by Drewbo!
Cheers,
No, not a daily.^^^^ Goodness me! Hammo didn't mention anyone had them that high!
Is yours a daily driver?
Had a similar experience recently. Took a recording of the noise for reference. Ironically the loan Mustang had the identical noise. I was told 1. we couldn't recreate the noise and 2. it's a characteristic of Mustangs due to the shape. Not sure how you can say 2. unless you've witnessed 1. but anyway...Anyway the car has developed a rattle in the driver side air vent (far right not the centre dash) and a vibration in the parcel shelf on rough bitumen.
