Hi guys, have not posted in a while - and need to if I want to keep my account open. No other reason for posting.

\\ Wagnman, what is your list of mods (is it only the cooler and custom tune ?!?!). Also if not a rude question, what sort of dollars are you talking for the cooler ? Ta PS looking forward to some pics when you get a chance

Yep - I am having similar issues with the bluetooth in my G6ET. The FG bluetooth definetly does not work as seemlessly as the unit they fitted to my 2007 TTG. That one works perfectly !! What have they done to stuff it up I wonder? Hope there is a fix coming soon though.

Looks Like Sennna_T wins th Diagnostic Prize ! Sorry to hear about the trouble mate - hope it gets fixed for not too much dosh. Orrie

Hey OVAR8D, thanks for the reply and offer. I have been flat out lately and not much time to look at the site. I can not see an opportunity to get down to have a 'strap' in your beast before I myself will be editied. I am down at Elite on Friday. Looking forward to the improvements. Will let you know how mine performs after the tune. Orrie

Hi OVAR8D, thansk for the comments. I am also gettign my tiune done at Elite. Actually the day I booked it in must have been the day you were getting yours done. Paul mentioned that they had just done a G6ET that went from 231 to 264 - so must be you. Where abouts are you based - if you are not too far away I would be interested in having a "Sneak Peak" at what I could expect. Also you mentioned that it wouldn't hold boost up top - can you explain a little more please. ta

Just wondering what people have done in terms of exhaust mods for the G6ET (is if the same at the FG XR6T ??). What benefits have accompanied the mods and are you happy with the result ? ie perfomance , noise etc. Also what sort of dollars did it cost ? I am getting a custum tune in a few weeks for my G6ET and was wondering if a new high flow cat should be installed before hand or if the standard system will suffice. I do not want to change the sound too much if at all - prefer a nice quiet cabin these days. However, if a few more ponies can be unleashed with a cat/zorst upgrade then why not. Anyway, if you have some info to share in this regard, I would be very interested.

My FG G6ET is limited to 210 (but man it wants to go on). Actually on the sat nav it measures out at only 208. Not sure if edit will remove this limit but I WILL BE FINDING OUT IN A FEW WEEKS TIME!

Yeah, with further exploration this is what I have found - it takes about 3 to 5 seconds to sort itself out sometimes. BLOODY ANNOYING to say the least. With my Factory bluetooth in the Territory it is istantaneous and works really good. This is the only dissappointment I have with the car though. I wonder if Ford can fix this with a sotfware update ? Any info on that would be appreciated. Orrie

That is interesting !! I was also using the Ipod when I tested mine. Maybe it is just with Ipod use ? I will have to test it again with a CD or radio going. I did ring the dealer and he said that it definietly should mute all music when a call comes in - so at least that is comforting to know that they did not plan it to be like it is. I also have to agree that the Ipod integration is EXCELLENT - a real positive step.
