This car had been repaired by another garage prior to arriving at a Ford Authorised Service Agent - they discovered that only one bolt was holding the gearbox steady mount to the gearbox casing.
As can be clearly seen in the picture the bracket was worn where it had rocked backwards and forwards with the engine movement. The picture also shows the cut down long bolt that was used in the wrong position.
All three gearbox threads were drilled out and heli-coiled with full depth inserts.
