Mines been with Allen Ford in Nuneaton for two and a half weeks now. They quickly diagnosed the idler pulley and gave me a van to use while mine is sorted.
They'd got it back together by the end of last week, but there was a slight rattle still there. It was a different rattle, but still . There's now been a mechanic on it direct from ford on it and hopefully I'll have it back tomorrow sometime. I can't really moan about the way the main dealer has dealt with it as they've kept me updated and supplied a replacement vehicle. Plus easter hols didn't help with things.
It started rattling around 3000m and has now done 15000 and apart from this and the parking sensors,it's been fine.
One niggling little problem is holding the revs whilst changing gear, regularly between 1st & 2nd , sometimes 2nd to 3rd, and very occasionally revs up! I've found the courtesy van does the same, apart from the reving up, just not as bad. Is this common?
