I've just this last week picked up a 2016 Focus Trend, 6speed manual.
I haven't found it to be in the wrong gear yet ;-) I reckon the Mondeo would be ten times the car with the manual box, but alas, we must consume what's dished up to us.

The problem with those fancy boxes is the older you get the sloppier the changes get. :p

It was! Our 2008 XR5 Turbo (6sp manual) was a fantastic family GT car. Several runs to Melbourne, Brisbane and FNQ, with all the family were achieved with speed, safety & comfort.

This has been a very interesting and informative read (thread)
Our family has 2 Mondeos one diesel MA (mine) and MC petrol eco-thing (daughters)both autos. Well the daughters has just started playing up and displaying the Transmission Limited warning sign...It did it about a month ago then was ok...Its had a 60000 service at ford since and we told them of the one off issue and to check if there were any problems that they find...Upon picking the car up they said there were no codes and they serviced it as per the book....Now a few weeks later it has played up again plus showing the transmission warning....RACQ called waiting atm. More to come...Griff. Last edited by griifo002; 18-03-2019 at 05:34 PM. |
