Yeah mate mine is noisy, sort of a 'back-lash' type noise when driving which you can drive around it but its a pain in the arse, is that the same as yours? So is for ford going to fix it under warranty? cause I've heard all sorts of stories where they think everything is within acceptable standards and all this s**t. Also is your gearbox noisy aswell, if sit at idle in nuetral with clutch out there is a soft 'rattle'??

OK MY BAD! Thanx 4 ya help

yeah I know im a dumb nooby, the search feature is crap I.M.O, ill try the sponsor links, thanx for replies

I got an FG Turbz an I drive it to work everyday, even have to drive down a rough dirt road to get there but sh*t happens. been doing so for few months now no issues so far except it get dirty.

c'mon somebody must have a FG Turbz with some modz done?? just want some feedback on what u had done & the gains u got out of it,etc. even just minor work like exhaust system etc.

want to do some mods to my stock FG Turbo, ie: exhaust, CAI, & custom tune for starters, I'm from country victoria not many good performance workshops in the area so wondering where I should go in the Melbourne area? have many people had these mods done in the area and can you recommend anyone good? was thinking of going to Herrod's but after reading some of the stuff on this site not too sure now! dont want to spark anutha debate but exhaust & intake aside, can they (Herrod's) do a good tune or not??? Any help or opinions appreciated, Thanx

Hi All, another newbie here, got a standard FG XR6T 6sp manual, had it for couple of months, pretty impressed, awesome car for stock standard, bit concerned with the amount of posts regarding the gearbox/clutch noises, mine has them too. got like a backlash noise when depressing clutch at low speeds can sort of drive around it most of the time, also when stationary with box in nuetral and clutch out then give it a few revs can hear raspy noise in gearbox sounds faintly like cogs grinding or something, just hoping for some feedback, after all the discussion has anyone decided if this is normal? is it worth trying to get Ford to fix it? Also was thinking of going to Herrod's to get turbo-back exhaust (if they have developed a turbo pipe for FG yet?) air intake upgrade and custom tune, hoping for some feedback on this also if many people have had it done on their FG? P.S. sorry bout writing a novel
