would there be a time when the dealer has exhausted all options and still no fix?

What would happen then? refund on purchase price? special deal on a replacement? It must be costing LR a fortune in replacing parts, especially at their labour charges - give the man a break, scrap it and hand him a new Rimini Red one Whistle

Nick, it is just total engine cut out, then back on again but as earlier no ignition lights or any other lights for that matter come on. It is not I believe total electrics as the radio stays on the wipers still keep going and the headlights stay on. Question p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

That's no joke Shilen, we have already discussed that we will if they cannot fix it for good that we will get shot with the dealer having to come up with a deal to recompence us, now swmbo says good can we have a Black one, Black I ask you I'm not dead yet, when that time comes it will be I will be travelling in a box, her second choice is Rimini, which I know you will agree with sadly I could not take the abuse from other members like you do, so if it does happen it will have to be Stornoway or Largo. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

seem to remember reading an article in a car mag ages ago when the engine was first put in the then top spec mondeo's some had the same problem may be worth enquiring on a ford forum or ford main dealer.

hope this is of some help (probably not) Shocked

Perhaps not but it has the proper wheels not iffy ones like some. Whistle
It is very likely that it will be back tomorrow as they just have to remove the two guys that have been trapped under the bonnet for the last twenty days, it may not be a permanant cure but but at least it will grace our drive again rather than the dealers workshop. I feel it will be going back again after what they have said confidence is low. Sad p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Is there a possibility that the problem I have is related to the thread that was on here a couple of months back where the guy said that his HDC was cutting in at 70mph Question How would he know it was HDC and was is just doing what mine is Question

Probabley not. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior
