I took the car in to Global Automatics. Tony took my car out for a test drive. Very nice guy and super helpful. Took me out to the workshop and showed me the Mondeo transmission, and went through the common issues they have. He's had so many issues with transmission rebuilds of these particular gearboxes in the past, that he no longer rebuilds them. He now just replaces them. That would require a new Mechatronic unit and clutch pack. The cars done 180k, so I'll have to way up, whether it's worth it, has been a great car outside of this. He mentioned that since the car has no shuttering or fault codes, that it could be worth taking it to Ford for a software update. I got in contact with Ford, and according to them, it's never had one. Would it be worth it?
