I own a G6ET may 09 built car and I purchased 2nd hand at 60,000kms. The problems Ive experienced include; A rough idle when the car starts and even into my driving time, the car rocks side to side and shakes back to front and makes a really weird noise like a reving noise. Its almost like the car has a cam, just without the nice note and power to go with it. - It has been in the ford dealer on 5 separate occasions now and 2 different locations, they can never seem to find it, however my 16 yr old brother who knows noting about ars often asks whats wrong with the car - I was originally told by one guy who could find an issue it was the battery, this has now been replaced twice and is not the problem..... which brings me to my next issue; My Battery has been replaced twice and is still going FLAT and wont even turn over, shows no lights and tells me there is an error that not even ford or raa understand :/ My Temperature sensor is always 6 degrees less than actual temp outside Bluetooth dropping in and out - despite me being advised its been repaired - twice iPod connectivity not working Heater would only blow hot air out of the paired vents and freezing cold out the other vent and as a result they replaced the heater shaft and ripped the dash out which has now left me with a ticking noise coming from the top of the dash, which the dealer is now telling me is a common issue that comes with them and it wasnt there before because the shaft wasnt working properly....hmmmm sounds a bit funny you replace one issue with another and its a common thing :/ Leaking OIL - not aircon fluid as they have tried pushing me away and telling me ( I think the photos and colour can clearly resolve their incompetence on this one but still what could it be) Fuel Consumption is nowhere near what they suggested it to be at the dealership, and IM not naieve to understanding the fuel usage and know they whack a fair bit on it but that's just a joke Im only getting about 350km to a tank if iM lucy and that's with me driving like a nana - owned a 360rwkw ve sss with cam and 6.2ltr before and that's the fuel consumption I got in that! The fuel gage is now showing a 1/4 of a tank when you put 35-40 litres of fuel in????? but range suggests 320km The above are the major issues I want some answers on and the following are just some of my pet peeves; that I didnt take much notice of when buying (coming from VE SS) the cabin size is so small and for me who is rather tall (and my partner also) with 2 carseats in the back its getting a bit ridiculous, I cant sit back and drive in the position I feel comfy to especially if we have an extra passenger sitting behind me :/ The luxury and power of the vehicle is undebatable in my opinion but there seem to be alot of issues that this particular car have and Im not shy to make them obvious!!!

Its almost like the car has a cam, just wothout the nice note and power to go with it. My Temperature sensor is always 6 degrees less than actual temp outside My Battery has been replaced twice and is still going FLAT Bluetooth dropping in and out iPod connectivity not working Heater Shaft had to be replaced as the heater would only blow hot air out one vent and cold out the others, and as a result they replaced the heater shaft and ripped the dash out which has now left me with a ticking noise coming form the top of the dash, which the dealer is now telling me is a common issue that comes with them and it wasnt there before because the shaft wasnt working properly....hmmmm sounds a bit funny you replace one issue with another and its a common thing :/ Leaking OIL - not aircon fluid as they have tried pushing me away and telling me Fuel Consumption is nowhere near what they suggested it to be at the dealership, and IM not naieve to understanding the fuel usage and know they whacka fair bit on it but that's just a joke!!!!
