I’ll have a check, my experience with this chassis in mondeo guise points me towards a rear engine mount as the gear leaver rises slightly more than normal, nothing major if it is, I’d change flywheel Anaya being fuel mass Any idea on rough clutch cost these days at a garage? Thanks

hopefully, clutch didn't slip this morning but may have to look at rear engine mounts as feels like there's bit of play when taking up drive

Update the drive home from work highlighted that clutch has a minute amount of slip at peak torque, but only if using full throttle in 6th at 75 ish which didn’t notice on test drive so obviously in very early stages. Slightly miffed but will do some tests to confirm as I’ve read it can be...

Electrics never my strong suit but where does the fl2 take its engine temp reading from? Coolant or air temp? Iirc most cars if you unplug the temp sensor put the cooling fan on as a safety device worth trying to trick it to see how it runs when technically stone cold but computer sees a hot reading
