My New Van woes.....!

[Flintstone]

well, yesterday while out I noticed the new transit sounded a bit lumpy, it’s been a bit lumpy for a few days but more so yesterday, so after pulling up to go in a shop I noticed it was pretty loud. I called my local garage who i trust who does all my work, managed to fit me in this morning to have a look at it, they diagnosed it.... bottom end knocking! So after some conversations with the garage I bought it off I’ve had it and myself recovered 100 miles to take it back and get a refund and get my old trusty van back!! What a day.
I’m now sinking a few Timmy Taylor’s landlord’s

Bloody hell Andy sorry to hear that, what year was it? That’s a strange one!

2014 Lee, out of warranty by less than 3 months. Full Ford history, 83k miles. One of those things I guess, I feel like a load has lifted from my shoulders. Gonna chill for a few weeks with the old van and see how I feel about things

Your making a wise decision Andy.
I hope it works out for you, our our work vehicles are so crucial to our lively hoods. Good luck with it and keep us updated 🙂

If all else fails I’ll chuck the trowels in the old vw bus !

What did you think of it when it was working?

Was it an oil problem do you know?

That's a bummer mate..
Atleast you managed to cut your losses, has it cost you much ?
