Looks like it's time for a double dump 'n' fill of the tranny too. Mine's coming up to 5,000 since the last dump & fill, so I'll be doing the same thing in the very near future.

( I did a double dump & fill at 34,000 (the first). A single at 39,000 and I'm approaching 44,000 and another single.)

I bought the car in December '05 with 28,000 on the clock. In over 2 & 1/2 years, I've done just over 15,000 miles. :thumb:

Indeed.

Conversely, The Wife has had her new car since January, and has put over 6,000 miles on it since.

It makes more sense to use her car as it's a 1.9 diesel, plus with 150 bhp & 225 lbft torque, it's a faster than the Maverick! :woohoo:
