Don't know what happened with mine Damo.

Bought near new as a demo from Ford, Ford serviced the entire time till I found after the 60k km service that they had NEVER checked the air filter ONCE even though the filter was meant to be checked each service and at the 60K one I was charged for a new one that was never installed.

They refunded the service, did it again and did something to the intake side of things (clean) to make me happy.

Only problem was, when my car was returned it violently shook the entire body every time I shut down the engine.

They couldn't find the fault and fix it, and I wasn't paying an expert diesel mechanic thousands to try and root out the cause.

Sold it way too soon for way too big a loss.

Currently drive an i30 diesel wagon that had more space, uses less fuel and is cheaper to service and maintain. Oh and it's a manual
