No lights or warnings at the moment. The "Trans Limited Function" warning went away after car restart. I'm sure my regular ind. mechanic will scan and check if I ask, but I need to be prepared for a laugh cos he told me to buy a Subaru!.

As a used car bought from a dealer it will have the 3month/5000km statutory warranty. I'm just not sure how to make sure I don't get stuffed around by the dealer with an intermittent fault.
I'd take a photo of any "Trans Limited Function" warning including the odometer. Maybe consider getting an independent opinion from Ford, at least ask Ford if their system can see any 'historic' codes that Mazda service can't? A friend bought a new subaru and the DPF had to be replaced within 12 months.
