Had the car serviced yesterday by our independent mechanic, had them replace all the engine mounts, if ones toasted the rest won't be far behind, got em all through Ford as I still have an account with them.
In for a service + engine mounts yesterday:
- Plugs
- Oil + filters
- Replaced all engine mounts (incl roll restrictor for gearbox)
- Front rotors and pads (went to RDA slotted and dimpled + EBC Ultimax2 pads)
Still has that stumble at idle but not as evident, doesn't shake the car now.
Parts were cheap, I have an account with a Ford dealership, $615 inc GST for all the filters, spark plugs, 20L of 5W30 full synthetic oil and all the mounts.
Front rotors and pads were $285 incl GST as I've got access to RDA through work
Front pads and rotors lasted 127,000km, not a bad effort.
Not overly sold on the EBC pads, probably a little softer initial bite than OE pad.
Supposedly fuel filter is due for replacement every 60,000km according to the service manual, though you ask Ford for the part and apparently these cars don't have a fuel filter?
