  1. Hey all, Had the same problem and fixed myself. If you look in the lower air dam opening you will see two pre-drilled & thredded holes in the metal inner reinforcing rail. I made two flat, curved brackets and bolted them to these holes. Problem solved. Just get someone to hold the bar up when you tighten them.
  2. Try buying the specified oil from Ford. No one can supply the spec listed in owners manual. The dealers all use different brands and viscosity. I'm still trying to work it out.
  3. Sounds like wastegate & BOV doing their job. You can hear it if you listen carefully with high revs on the gear change.
  4. that's not the way it's done nowdays with air bags. The wheel is centred by locking it straight ahead and adjusting the tie rods. This changes the toe settings to align with the the steering wheel. If the aligner does his job properly you should have a straight steering wheel. Do not let anyone try to remove the wheel to centre it (big danger)
  5. Had some alignment issues with my "t". I had a report done by specialist aligner & then confronted dealer who agreed to kick the tin toward fixing the problem. Left front camber was main issue. Had the mod done at 7000kms, now at 17,000 and perfect. If any one wants contact details I'd be happy to supply as they do a top job.
  6. Had mine in yesterday for 2nd machining of front rotors and the supposed fix. Steering shudder when reversing out of parking area. Went straight back into service and got the shrugged shoulder treatment. Never had that before they said. It seems to have settled down now though.
  7. Sorry to start an old post again but I had my XR6T on friends hoist doing oil change at 10000k. We noted the diff has a sticker with the letters (LSD and a part number). I have Traction control also. The diff reacts as you would expect an LSD ie: Hold one drive wheel and try to turn the other etc. Quick call to local diff specialist who confirmed it should not have LSD with traction control, he asked if diff had been changed by us. Salesperson told me it did not come with LSD when I ordered it. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!. I have tried to get info from Dana Spicer site with no luck. Any ideas ?
