If the pads still has enough material left, it's fine. IINM only needs to change when it's 4.5mm<

Sorry to say, that seller is lying. If indeed that model as shown, it's 2012 and before. Hence it wouldn't be 998cc, but 1.6L Ti-VCT as stated in the beginning. And it wouldn't have turbo, because it's not an Ecoboost variant. Basically this seller doesn't even know then car, so my advice is don't buy from this seller. Next thing you know he tell you that it's a Fiesta RS 5.0L V8 Ecoboost laugh.gif

Hey guys, I've been driving my Fiesta 1.6 sedan since Dec 2012. Love the car to bits.

But the warranty will be ending late next year, and I'm worried about gearbox replacement (if rosak) after the warranty period.

Have any of you guys stuck on with your car after the warranty period is over? Or got any lobang to replace gearbox cheap2. Frankly I would still want to keep my car, just scared my wallet can't tahan haha.

Buy a new Fiesta laugh.gif

The gearbox itself should be robust, just the clutchpack will need replacement (RM4k-5k depending on where you go). If your TCM fails, it is covered with 10 year warranty....as long as your continue to service with Ford.

You still have more than 1 year warranty, whatever you want to claim, better claim it soon.

Haha, I wish I can buy a new one too. Especially, with this type of deal (2015 Fiesta). Looks quite tempting. But, commitments are getting more as I age and times are also not so good. Trying to cut spending wherever possible also.

Is it possible to change the clutchpack at SC before it fails laugh.gif ?

Hmm, where did you find this info? I only have my EWP letter which states that warranty is up to 5 years.

I was afraid of transmission failure after I saw this figure from the spare parts price list on the thread front page. If need to replace this then gg.

Would you care to share what I can/should replace before warranty ends? I'm not the most car savvy person around and any info will be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, you can request for a clutch slip ratio test, it the test fail (slip ratio over certain threshold) they will replace for you.

Else, some other member able to get replacement after manja2 with SA

FYI, I never heard of anyone broke their transmission laugh.gif

Haha ok, good to hear that. Based on responses here, I think it is safe to keep the car beyond the warranty period hmm.gif ?

If regular maintenance and a few occasional mishaps won't break the bank, I'll definitely be looking forward to keeping the Fiesta for at least the next 3 to 4 years thumbup.gif .

Try look for owners who want to sell instead of used car dealers. You can ask the owner in person the history of the car.

If you are so unlucky that the transmission itself break, find a half-cut/reconditioned unit would be much cheaper. Else just convert to manual biggrin.gif

My car is 2 months older than yours, I got a letter about the warranty extension for the TCM, so I believe yours have also. Try calling SDAC customer service to check.

A little bit of vibration is normal. The engine mounting is a wear and tear item, over time the vibration will increase until u kenot tahan, then you'll need to replace it.
