[QUOTE="Shaker1, post: 9448636, member: 4863"] I'd bet that half (or more) of those who had it done were done for "preventative" reasons. Evidenced by the fact that Ford had to tighten the requirements due to getting back parts with no sign of warping. I asked my dealer's service department how many they had performed and they told me none. Be pretty hard to determine the actual number that had [I]real[/I] problems (i.e. warped flywheels leading to clutch drag and potentially damaged synchros). Have any of you guys who had the TSB done (08s in particular) had proof of warped flywheels leading to tyhe other problems? This is clearly a problem area on these cars. But it may never rear it's head unless subjected to the kind of slippage that comes from prolonged stop and go driving. Mine has 10K miles and feels better than new, since the initial "grabbieness" went away after about 2500 miles. That being said, if my car were subjected to daily stop and go, I would be concerned.
