Greetings all, its been a while.
So i have a 2021 Sport Auto - and since day 1 the box has never been great, i know its a fairly privative box but i was expecting something a little smoother than this if being honest and the test drive i had felt far snappier.
Anyway its been lethargic from day 1 and after a few complaints about it, Evans Halshaw took it in and found at 4000 miles that the gearbox was significantly low of oil and needed an additional 4l to top it up.
Obviously a concern and it was slightly better (assumed more after a readaptation was forced)
So 14000 miles in, cold weather, i am once again getting the van simply refusing to shift out of first without a prod from the button on the gear lever. Once its shifted and oil is warming it is better but still very much like a big elastic band when changing gears with the slow transition and clutch slip feel between gears.
So with 3 months of warranty left, so i bother going back to Evans Halshaw or any ford dealer (Chester) or just take it to an independent and get them to service it and hope they actually do the work and not the usual say they have and just tick the box without actually doing anything !!!
