i was hoping for a more postive / helpful response as going to a ford dealer means i pay ford prices, this and other forums are there to help members with their problems and to give practical guidance and impart experiences memebrs has had - may be cosmo v6 misses this point.

i also have an issue with my stereo when listening to the AM frequency (talk sport etc) when i break a sreeching noise comes out of the speakers, not sure if its wired up wrong etc and yes before you reply v6 i have taken to a dealer who diagnoised no fault found but big bill please, arguement, counter arguement, more arguement agreement that customer is right hence my desire to find alternatives to the main dealer network and the ecat help for other car projects
