April 11th, 2005 11:35 PM #1magandang gabi po sa inyo, at sana mabigyan nyo ako ng kaunting advice sa problema ko
my truck is an '02 ford ranger 4x4, w/ about 33,000 kms na...and for the third time since december, nagkaroon sya ng overheating problem. having brought this unit to ford makati for service twice na for the same problem in 4 months, i needed a second opinion na so i went to ford connecticut.
after about 45 minutes with the engine running with the mechs looking at the engine from different angles, na tancha ko na di nila alam kung anong problema ng sasakyan ko. susuko na sana ako... tapos may biglang dumating na tech support from FPG, at pinabukas nya radiator cap ko...pina-start engine ko...tapos napansin nya nag tatapon ng tubig ang radiator sa top pag tinapakan ang accelerator. ang duda nya, may leak galing sa makina at posibleng warped cylinder heads, or leaking cylinder gaskets, or both.
may nakita rin akong thread tungkol sa overheating dito, at base dun sa isang post, maaring totoo yung suspecha ng taga FPG (sigh). nalulungkot ako kasi, eto ang estimate ng casa:
cylinder head assembly - 49,5000
cylinder head gasket - 3,200
labor - 10-15k depende sa aktwal na problema
pag warped ang cylinder head, puede naman daw i-machine shop kung di pa ganun ka grabi ang pagka-warp nya, at kung sa ganun, mabawasan naman daw ang gastos ko.
ang mga tanong ko sana ngayon:
1) sa labas ng mga ford service centers, meron ba kayong ma-recommend na shop na magaling sa ganitong klaseng trabaho?
2) kung sakali man may ipapalit na pyesa (cylinder heads or gaskets), meron bang ibang outlet ng original ford ranger parts na mas mura?
3) sabi ng ford connecticut, kung ma-machine shop pa ang pyesa, sa Precision machine-shop daw nila ipagawa....magaling ba yung shop na yun?
kung may advice kayo mabigay tungkol dito...maraming salamat in advance!Last edited by S-works; April 12th, 2005 at 03:16 PM.
