Default New Maverick, well 14 years old.

Hi all, recently bought a Ford Maverick 2.7 TDI to replace my VW Passat 4motion that drowned in a flood. Been a while since I've driven something so truckie but really liking.
The truck is in pretty good condition but it is getting on and things need monitoring but at least spanners still have a purpose.

This site has already helped solve the calapsing clutch damper, lots more problems to solve in the future.

Welcome to the best Maverick and Terrano club on the net.
We're not that bad on Patrols either.

Thanks guys, it certainly is a friendly and very informative forum, just finished reading all of the engine posts in the terrano section. I feel like I know a lot more about engines/transmissions, but I'm sure all that knowledge will disappear as soon as I need it.
Thank god for the interweb.
