Default Re: Ford Laser problems?

I had one up until recently that I bought for the daughter to learn to drive in.

It had 270k when we sold it.

Is it auto or manual? If the hold light on the dash won't go out then it may have some serious transmission issues. The one we ended up buying did not have the issue but another one we did drive had the issue.

The coil pack(s) on them can go a little brittle and will short out. This can occur overnight. If you are mechanically minded, a very easy fix. These went on our Laser - it took me about an hour to change all four of them (I think I changed the spark plugs at the same time).

Ours was very reliable. I know who I sold mine to (it is now a farm ute - literally) and he has had nil issues with it driving it around the paddock(s).
