ok sweet thanks- ill bring all these issues up with him. The sound doesnt seem to get any louder or softer when I turn up and down volumn, or when I accelerate. When I have everything turned down and the car turned off the hissing is still there. I notice it when I change a track on a CD as well when its turned down. Almost like the you can hear it moving to the next track on the CD and she hiss crackles a bit. Once ive got it cranked obviously I dont get the sound (well most prolly cant hear it)- but I dont want to have to have it turned up all the time not too hear it.

Hi guys, Last week I got a stereo installed in my FG ute. - Alpine F300 amp - 12" Slimline kicker sub - 6" JL Audio speakers in front Im running these off the stock ICC Headunit, and have a hissing sound coming from front left speaker. Installer assures me everything is grounded correctly and maybe an issue with factory head unit. The amp is just "amplifying" the hiss which might have always been there. He has another FG install in a few weeks and will let me know how he goes, but has anyone else come across this or heard about it? Thanks

hey mate, picked up my ute on tuesday- I was told to drive it like I normally would. The engine then learns to cope with how much pressure you put it under and will make a crisper engine. that's what I was told- whatever truth is in it im not sure, but have been giving mine regular squirts. Its just so darn hard not to!

Hey guys- wondering what your opinio would be on wheels for my FG XR6t ute. Colour is Breeze as you can see- so im thinking maybe even white wheels? or a nice set of chromes? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Well finally took some pics- not the best lighting etc but ill get some better ones done soon, took delivery on tuesday and havent been out of it much since.

Picked up my XR6T ute yesterday- been driving it as much as I can! love it!! traction control gets a workout. will get some pics up soon!

Ok cool thanks Benny, As I know absolutely nothing about lowering do you reckon I will get away with just changing the springs? or is there more involved with shocks- rubbers etc??

Im gettin the ute- so looks like its 17's. Doesnt bother me cause down the road ill upgrading but just annoying that was one of his selling points he used a few times. Ill see what I can do about a SIDO- its hard enough getting him too ring me back let alone any information! will see how I go- thanks guys

Since we are tellin fantastic dealer stories I may as well drop mine. When takin the turbo for a test drive was told the car comes with 18" wheels stock, and that was somethin he said a few times and silly me beleived him. Read the cataloge in more detail after I signed and suprise suprise its comes with 17's. Rang him and said what are you gonna do to sort this out- he even had to get back to me to double check what actually came on them and his excuse was he had never sold one before and cant do anything about it. If he did he would loose his job probably- oh boo hoo ill get the tissues. When I signed I was told 6 weeks, and that was about 2 months ago now if not longer and I still have to wait another 2 weeks. He reckons delivery on 6th and I should have it 10th of September?? so nearly 3 months after I signed. Dad keeps tellin me maybe someone walked in with cash and got the car? do they do this kinda thing- or is dad just stirring the freakin pot. If I can get a SIDO ( I assume from dealer) you reckon you would be able to check Senna? or can you do it with just a name Cheers
