And she's right  Grin

Pretty frugal.  Is it petrol or diesel?

I flog the bollocks of the Mondeo mercilessly and it still returns 36mpg US.
they currently don't offer the diesel variation here stateside....
He's right...gas...avg over 40 mpg

I don't think the re-flash did a thing to fix the noise.

The service manager asked us to drive it for a couple of hundred miles, and if I'm not happy they'd replace the clutches.

I guess I have no problem playing the game.

A quick greeting from Vegas.   

I really need to get out of the auto industry. 

 Tongue


Carry on and enjoy the day (or sleep well).
there are times I completely agree....


have fun in Vegas.
I used to work wholesale dealer parts. Car and heavy truck.

I hung out in the parts room this morning. I know most of the guys that work there. My brother is the asst parts mgr.

I'm pretty sure I'll wake up tonight with friggen numbers assaulting my brain. Tongue

NOW,  it is a lot of spanglishaneseorean with a hindi flareup...and so much almost proprietary technology, that I feel more like a phone tech diagnostician than a parts guy....and I do it moreso willingly so that I keep my return ratio low...because they think I am joking when I ask them outright why I should take something back that they installed and took off because it didn't fix the car....I asked 1 guy what he would think (he sent me back a fan control module that he scratched installing it and left screw marks and greasy paw prints all over it) if I had sent it to him in this condition as a brand new part...he shut up and told me to send it back to him and has stopped throwing parts at car to fix them and asks questions now....
