big up to totd
for the past 14 months i've had this rattle coming from the suspension of the mondeo and, having changed virtualy everything, sometimes twice in the case of the bottom ball joints and wishbones and arb drop links, it started to get a bit much
i even changed the springs and the top mounts but still this shonky rattle existed
as per mypost a few weeks ago regarding a decent garage, torque of the devil was the right place at the right time so in it went
and 5 minutes later kester's popped into the cafe and said he's found the problem
it turned out to the the steering rack
so, rack ordered from ebay i left it to them
ok, so the rack took a week to turn up, but when i got the car back, no rattle
the thing i've found since i collected the car though has been two fold
one, it's so nice not to hear the rattle
two, the brakes are just unreal
so big up to the lads there for sorting the problem, and i've got some bushes on the way too

dropped it off on the saturday morning and then, for the best part of the next week, they were waiting for the rack to turn up
no problems i leaving it there either as i was worried about it cluttering up teh place, but no, no problems
if i had taken it to a garage in the first place to diagnose the fault i probably would have saved myself the £400 odd i've spent trying to rectifiy the problem so ther is a lesson to be learnt there, sometiems it IS cheaper for the professionsal to have a look

Good job TOTD They got me the specific alternator that i requested, whilst driving down on a saturday morning and it was there waiting for me at just gone 9am.. Last time this happened, Ford gave me 4 alternators and just told me to bring the 3 wrong ones back
