a mate of mine had his mondeo st diesel done and said it ran smooth as a anything once it was done will let you know. takes an hour and a half so will take some photos too

just been doing some more reading around this online and it could also be either the N95 (controls boost) or vaccum actuator

 

[theo289]

[Swift3269]

That's not gd that bill is massive I feel for you I'd be crying like a baby

 

[theo289]

yeah i am and to top it off, there is a warranty on the car with some crappy third party but as the policy isn't in my name, im not covered .... ****** joke! what a way to start a week

 

[Swift3269]

Can't you transfer it or get the previous owner to transfer it? Some one has paid for that or still paying for it

Was a one off cost the cover - they said i can transfer the warranty but have to pay £35 but as i've said there is an issue with the car, im not covered anyway .... any excuse to wriggle out of something

Yeah exactly - have just tried to call the previous owner and left a voicemail asking very nicely if they could do something for me.

 

[Swift3269]

Yea worth a try

 

[theo289]

Yea worth a try

Holding out no hopes with him in all honesty but will see - will keep you posted

 

[theo289]

Cars back - seems good. Still recovering from the bill lol! Will report back in a week or so if the car is still rolling or not

 

[theo289]

So far so good. Took the car out a few times for a spin and it seems relatively good. Next issue is tracking and engine mounts have perished - excessive shaking from the engine
