Mine went in for this just before warranty ended. It took them 3 goes and replacing 3 different things to get it working. I think it was maybe the motor and also the heat pads themselves that they replaced - but a lot of labour to do it

there is a definite swish swish swish sound when you lightly brake it was sitting about for a few weeks and the brakes were stuck when i released it to drive it round yesterday so it had a bit of rubbing going on which i put down to it sitting about yeh.

New springs on - doesn't feel much different but the KNOCKING - is finally gone - sweet Jesus The mechanic decided to ruin my day though by telling me my brake disc was warped. so theres another bloody thing i gotta look at - back in for MOT on Sunday, finally get this thing back on the road!

Eibach replacing the springs foc - still under warranty it seems but no stock in UK or US so have had to take the German version - which are apparently 10nm softer but slightly longer so same drop. 🤷‍♂️

thank you, but they aren’t the standard unfortunately

gets better i just jacked it up to snap a pic to send to eibach to see if i could see it or not here is was the ford service department and 3 garages managed to miss when i told them there was a clunking when i went over pot holes.

What you think :) ? Always hated the GT badge - bought this pony for the front grill when I initially bought the car only to find out the front pony had an actual plastic spot that you had to use back then (2016) spare decklids were v hard to get hold of - turns out not any more ! so got a new...

So place today said couldn’t get at the top bushings with torque wrench. Got the rest of them done however it didn’t fix the knocking. the tightened the axle nut bolt which they said was very lose. That solved my creaking issue took engineer for a ride and he said he thinks the knocking is a...

just dropped it to one there now - will see if they can do it

Took this to my local - 4 post roll on ramp - he said it couldn’t be done - not enough clearance for his torque wrench to hit the 203lb/ft spec dunno what to do now other than just try another garage my passenger side rear is knocking on short sharp compressions - I’m hoping it’s something to...
