Viking Posted January 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Wel, was supposed to collect today but as ever happens I got a load of work in and the car put a camshaft sensor fault light on while on road test after the service, so it needs a new sensor which won't be supplied til Monday. So maybe Tuesdayor Wednesday for collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 That was rotten luck, hope it didn't cost too much to fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted January 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 It's a £30 part and 10 minutes work, just they couldn't get hold of one from any motor factors or Ford, so had to be ordered in. Spent the day here taking dash cam wiring out and other bits & pieces, and making a list of stuff to check when I get there. Looking forward to a new car again, even if I'm hardly going to be driving it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted February 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 It's been a while, but tomorrow is the day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 It's taken a month to get the part? It's always a nice feeling when you get a new motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted February 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 It was more involved than the camshaft sensor. They replaced it and it was still throwing a random fault so it went in to Ford for diagnosis. There was a loose pulley on the cambelt so it's had a new cambelt & water pump fitted, then I've been too busy so left it til tomorrow.

Tony Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 I agree it looks very nice...How does it drive like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted February 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 It's a nice drive, pulls well and the 4 wheel drive keeps it well planted. Just got the dash cam fitted (except I'm waiting for some new 3m pads to be delivered to attach the mount). Overall I think the lady will be pretty happy with it.
