AndyM95 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I have developed what appears to be a issue with the synchromesh in my Fiesta 1.0 (123). It grinds severely every time I try to engage second either changing up or down. Has anyone else had any similar issues with this as I am very surprised for this to happen to such a new car. It's only a year and half old and 25k on the clock. I will be taking it into Ford tomorrow for a look at and service. I presume any repair to this will be covered under warranty? All help is very much appreciated. Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it sounds like a mechanical problem so should be covered by the warranty. I wouldn't worry about it until the guys at Ford have had a look.

philr62 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Is it an audible grind? If so it sounds like a syncro gone, bit unusual for a Ford I would say. But if so your warranty will cover it could be a duff part slipped through , one of the downfalls of mass production I'm afraid. Good luck with it anyway. You never know might just need an adjustment on the gear change mechanism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
