140 OK, guys. Are you going to let me take 140,000 as a trade in on my Heritage? I'm getting down to the wire here, and I'm ready to move. Rob

Anyone interested in a great price on an '06 Heritage with about 1400miles let me know. Car's a real garage queen and just pains me to no end just to sit there without getting any miles on it. Had it's first oil change, runs great...Has 2500.00 3M coating as well. Rob

My own 2 cents: I called on 2 separate occasions. Once for my battery that had exploded during delivery of my 7 mile car. They had little to offer help wise. The second time was for assistance on what to do about the 2 extra quarts of oil my dealer put in as part of the new car prep. Again, the...

Let's face it, the GT will look good in any color!

My own take on your situation: Looking at Ebay, which I agree wouldn't be my first option, (although I have sold two cars succesfully on Ebay) I'd think you may have to settle on a little less than you expect. There's still a fair amount of inventory out there. On the positive side though...

Well according to that article, that could be a good thing. I'd love to see them turn things around.

Do I detect a bit of sarcasm /skepticism that "good luck"?

Did you guys see the thread rattles/vibration from today? The last post talks about pulling on the guages one at a time. He isolated the tachymeter as the source. I'm going to try it later and let you all know.

One part I can tell you for sure was my Battery. It came from the west coast, I think Washington. It took about 5 days to get here, (agonizing wait on my car with 7 miles on it). Rob

Bonedoc You gotta find yourself another Ford dealer, that's nuts. There's no question that this is Ford (the dealers') problem. My local guy replaced mine, and cleaned it up, no questions asked, free of charge, and he isn't where I purchased it from. I have found the GT customer service not to...

Can someone tell me where to look for the transmission number?

Joe (JT) From what I read with your original thread, your "rattlesnake" sound is not reproducible with the car in neutral? Mine, I can mimic whether I'm in gear or neutral. Thanks Rob

Roger I'm with you. It's not in all the cars, and to make matters more complicated, there are many different "rattles", all hard to diagnose and seemingly impossible to treat. Some are at idle, some at certain RPM's, different qualities... The only thing they have in common is that they're all...

Hey Tim Can you describe your rattle? Was it at a certain RPM, was is the deadly "Rattlesnake" sound... Rob

I had a similiar problem at 10 miles. Had the local dealer come out, put in a new battery. He told me that at my first oil change he'd assess the extent of the damage, and take care of it. Ford is definately liable, even though it's really the inept dealers fault! Rob To put the icing on the...
