Yeah I guess he does get a new one and he needs one right now.Anyway my ford dealer said about running in "in 1st and 2nd keep it under 4000rpm for 500KM ."
Seems pretty straight foreward.I would change the oil/filter at this point as well.Have a good look at the oil it,ll have some metal,but if it seems excessive get it analised.
