    The stock suspension in a ute can move from side to side in terms of where it's mounted... that might be your cause if one of those mounts is a bit looser than usual.

    if it's so intermittent like that, it does sound like an electrical/wiring issue...

    Ba xr6t Been having an issue for a few weeks when randomly at idle car mite be idleing and all sudden for a split second missfired but at same time it revs up quickly and is all good ...this all happens within like 1-1.5 seconds. .other times when it does this it does same but besides revung up for a second it revs right up and missfired/stumbles etc till turn car off and on again . Mite do this a few times over say 4 days then comes good for a week or so and then does it again. When driving car it's fine...dosnet do it or miss etc only seems to be at idle Codes I get are related to excessive rpm ..and maximum speed reached codes Also I have tried a different throttle body and TPS. Which it came good for a few days after that. There is no intake leaks etc literally covered everything besides maybe coils? But surely it would do it while driving aswell bot just idleing? Also thinking possibly wireing issue to throttle body but again why only when idleing?

    Hey bro jw I’m having the same problem and need help with sorting performance mode

    Hello as the title fg ute standard 18” wheels and tyres. Also not lowered or anything. Sometimes must be when turning hard the tyres rub on the chassis. When I got the car, one tyre was all cut up from the spot welds. Thanks

    Cheers for that woz! That link you provided will be a great help, I didn't even know it was possible to test the solenoids that way. I'm going to try and get a used zf6 hopefully this week as it seems a bit tricky to get just a torque converter as no one wants to part it from the box which is understandable. I'm pretty sure I can just chuck my old TCM in the new one and reset the learning tables in FORscan and it should hopefully all work. Going uphill the other day I did get some gentle shuddering so I'm leaning towards torque converter. At least when I go to swap the TCM I can test the solenoids with a multimeter then. I was quoted around $1500 in parts for the sonnax zip kit, new solenoids and a few other goodies but hopefully the valve body is still half alright as I don't really want to spend too much more on this car. Thanks again for the advice and link, I'll definitely keep y'all updated on how it goes

    wouldn't change the oxygen sensor readings... but it could significantly shorten the life of a water-cooled turbo... but if there's no bearing play and the fins aren't able to touch the housing and the turbo takes a while to spin down after operation, it's probably OK.
  26. jas98
    Hi all. So I discovered that the water line to turbo was completely flogged on my ba xr6t ...nothing getting through Long story short it's all good now (new line) But .I'm in no way of knowing for how long it was this way. Jidgeing by how it was clogged I'm thinking it was like this for quite some time..as in allot more the. A year...maybe 2 or so Now turbo seems ok. But what is the likely outcome on this? Stuffed bearings? Oil seals? Also wondering...seeing turbo was getting really hot with no water cooled ....can it. Affect the oxygen sensor readings?

    If you have forscan and a compatible obd cable, you can see what the torque convertor lockup solenoid is doing and the amount of slip the convertor has. A lot of the time there are no faults associated with a torque convertor that is surging. Worse case scenario you need to pull the box out and replace it, at least they're quite common these days. You could try replacing the EDS6 TCC solenoid if you feel like doing some shotgun troubleshooting. https://www.sonnax.com/tech_resources/308-zf6hp26-solenoid-identification

    morning all, happy Monday ☯️

    Yea I was worried It'd be the torque converter, as I said this is my first automatic car but with all the reading up I'm doing it seems to point that way. If it was a a solenoid causing the Torque converter to consistently lock on and off I would've most definitely have a fault code wouldn't I?

    If you're certain you've filled the oil to the correct level using the proper procedure then it looks like you've been sold a zf with a fu<ked torque convertor.

    Yea I definitely might have to give it a go if I can't troubleshoot it myself. I'd be happy to travel for a decent tuner too as long as I'm not doing further damage to any components
  33. k31th
    hmm, yeah, does seem a bit odd... not really doing anything crazy there, but obviously not correct... Does seem like an issue that could be covered/hidden by tune of the transmission... Try talking to a tuner in the area?
  34. LockedIn
    Here's a link of 3 videos I compiled (had to be over 1 minutes to not be a YouTube short) It is quite and odd one especially considering I'm not getting any codes. Most the auto transmission specialists in my area are booked out until mid August (sunshine coast) and I really don't want to spend thousands of dollars chasing problems that can't be pinpointed. I'm open to all suggestions, cheers guys
  35. k31th
    yeah, I've got no idea what could be wrong there...
