Car in the shop!
 

Finally took my car in for the tranny whine. It was gettin ridiculous. Any idea on what it probably is? I also got a Hyundai accent rental! Boo yah!

No idea. I'm sure some of the guys with manuals will chime in soon enough though.

Mines pretty loud too. Let me know where you took it to and if they are gonna fix it under warranty.

The problem is that it's an mt-82 and they are outsourced using the cheapest labor and materials possible.

Mines at Blake utter ford in Sherman. I had the cert pre owned warranty. It's all covered.

I just made an appointment tomorrow to take mine in at 5 star ford in nrh.

Looks like it's gna be in till nxt wk. This Hyundai accent is shit but damn the mileage is awesome!

Has the stealership updated you on the car?

-Alex

I didn't get a rental dammit. And they said they are a week behind schedule so they will prob look at mine Friday or so. I'm thinking I prob won't get my car back till next year

Are they still going to fix it under the warranty with the tune you have?

-Alex

I'm pretty sure they are. They haven't looked at the vehicle yet but I'm gonna pissed of they deny transmission work because I have a tune

Trans is out. Input shaft bearing they think might be the culprit. Maybe. Rental was covered under my cert pre-owned warranty.

at idle i hear a whine with the trans in neutral and clutch released. when i push the clutch the whine goes away. i also have a whine in 1st-3rd gear. this the same as yours?

No mine just whines in gears 1-4. 5 and 6 are fine. Some of yours sounds like a throw out bearing. Update on mine trans is out and tire apart. Waiting on parts.

damn they need to learn how to be organized.

So was it the input shaft bearing. 2nd pic I input shaft on the right?

Guy has worked there for 20+ years. All he does is trans and rear end work. Legit.

I believe so. Parts will be in tomorrow.

Is the car at a dealership getting repaired?

If so which one?

I just got an update with mine, they said they will need to tear it down and replace parts and if it still whines after that then ford will send a whole new unit. But the bad part is that they said it's gonna be like 3 weeks before they can get parts because of holidays. So my car will be at the dealer for a month. I told them to go ahead and keep it and work on it, I told them I just want it fixed. FOR FREE!!!!!

Blake Utter Ford in Denison. My dad is the mgr there.
Same thing they told me. Parts only took a day for me? They may just be telling you that because they are so backed up.

One mans chaos is another's organization.

Hey I just thought about this, you think it would be a good idea to put new updated clutch pressure plate bolts in while Trans is out?

I thought the same thing and have no input really.

now would be awesome time to add in a upgraded clutch for free :) well the labor part anyways,lol

Truf!! For my power level Im fine. Im glad they removed the stock h so that when I put mine on it will be a breeze. Lol

I ordered new pressure plate bolts from ford. They are going to out them on. Atleast they way they can make sure they are torqued correctly

Delay. Needs main shaft bearing. Be here tomorrow.

Bearig came in today!! Trans back together

Tranny in! Tranny guy is taking it for a drive. Should have it home today!

Damn so fast. They told me 3 weeks

Its done!! Yay!! I told them about your car and he said to bring it on down!!

Cot damn! Good deal! Frank looks like you need to take your car somewhere else bro.

-Alex

Lmk and I will set you up with Steve the service MGR. Cool guy and straight up.

Ok I'll find out tomorrow. Cuz idk if they already started on it

What's the status?

-Alex

Ok another update on my car, just got a call from service advisor that my car is put back together but still whining. So I will be getting a 2014 brand new mt82. He didn't give me a time frame but probably another 2 weeks

I guess that's sort of good news.

-Alex

Mine still whines a tad but not enough for me to get pissed. Im gna wait till about 80k and take it back in LOL.

I got another update on my Trans. They said that ford didn't authorized to replace whole unit but instead to rebuild it again with even more parts. This sucks I told him if prefer a new one specially if they already failed at rebuilding it. And it's going to be 30 days in the shop this Saturday, service advisor said they have to get it done by the 30 day mark. Dammit I'm mad

OUCH! That sucks bro, sorry to hear the bad news. But what happens if it is not done by the 30 days? Also, do they have to supply you a rental since this is warranty work?
