I know many have had their TOB replaced under warranty. Looks like I'll be going that route too. Was wondering has Ford released a TSB for this problem?

The stock replacement TOB is inferior in quality, which meant to me it would probably go out again. I replaced mine with a Valeo. It also couldn't be done by Ford, so a TSB was not a concern.

My reason for this is that the bearing behind it was also shredded. Luckily, my transmission was OK. It has already been replaced once.

In a nut shell, Its a high pitcherd squeeling that ceases when you push in the clutch. For a more detailed explaination, just search for tob or throw out bearing. If you had a bad TOB, you would'nt have to ask what the symptoms were:p

And yet another thread on this TOB!! Will it ever stop? Ford you need to get your crap together on this issue. No bashing, just a solution. Love my car.
