i just booked my car in and droped it off thismorning, the servicer rang back and said my exhaust is totaly rusted and offered a 2.5" sports system 1 i declined and said im getting 1 from redcliff dyno in the near weeks.
he then said my front disks are at bare minimum and just about needed to be replaced, i said ill call him back. so what i need to know is get them replaced by ford or get new 1 from somewhere else. but im not sure where they sell quality or even better disks then the ford 1's
