  1. Hey Grudgee Engine light is a problem that sometimes occures after flash tune. If you have a custom tune take it back to your tuner so they can get rid of the light ,if a generic tune then you may have to put up with it. To check if it is in the tune ,flash it back to standard, start the engine and see if the light goes away if it is still there take it to a dealer to check that something is not wrong with your cat. Good luck PS may not start in standard mode with your bigger injectors so go back to the second tune and try

    speedys look good but I have a problem with their clear coat finnish pealing off after 2 years . they give a 5 year waranty on the finnish that apparently does not cover the clear coat WTF.
  3. I realy think that for the small price of the re tune ,relative to the price of an injury to your motor, better to be safe than sorry. Better still give your respective tuner a call and get their oppinion My 2c Mark
  4. Stickers Where can I tick the sticker box??????????????
  5. Ya wanta hope no cows walk out on to the tracks
  6. Hey Check out the dodgy fiberglass mould work up the side of the lid not a bad looking spoiler if you like the shopping trolley look
  7. Thanks guys You put my mind at rest I will give Con and Jeff a call tomorrow to make sure all is well. Good idea Buf-phoon to mail the box to get it fixed. The tune the boys did is so much fun I thought I wasnt going to be able to drive it over Easter Mark
  8. Yes Nika its a BF unusual that the sensor only picked up an incorect reading today, 3 days after the tune? I gather from your post that it should be fine to drive? I live four and half hours away from tuner and will be a while till I can get back. thanks heaps Mark
  9. Hi I am wary to post this untill I have talked to my tuner but after geting a custom tune done on monday which I have been very happy with so far, and filling up with fuel this afternoon, giving it a blurt at the intersection I noticed the Malfunction indicator lamp "an engine picture in the top left corner of the dash" is constantly on . Reading the Ford manual tells me that the vehicle is no longer operating within emission regulations WTF does this mean??????? Is it safe to drive the car or should I leave it alone untill I can contact my tuner. Is this something to do with the fuel I just filled up with " bad octane levels maybe" Is it something unrelated to the tune altogether? Any advice would be much appreciated Thanks Mark
  10. how did you go zeggie? any luck Mark

  12. Hey guys Cant make this weekend but would be definatly keen for the drags at WSID, is it a full meet with top fuel? Maybe we could meet somewhere and all go together, let me know as I have to come from Forster. Looking forward to meeting you all Mark
  13. F6 only have leather console lids and hand brake handle
  14. 185 but that xr8 bonnet is worth another 10rwkw so total 195
  15. Had it done on the last new car I bought. Got sucked in on the sales pitch " with the girl with the big tits" along with scothguard and rust protection. When I got the car home I noticed that there were swirl marks all over the car so I deceided to give it a wash but they would not come out as they were under the paint protection. Dealership didnt want to know about it as it was an AFTERMARKET option even when it was sold by them. Had numerable arguments with the paint people but to no avail as I had to spend $300 to get a panel beater to remove the crap. If you ask me you will do more harm to the car by having paint protection than not

    well done, any pics?
  18. nice not sure if its worth the money though
  19. Good luck with the buy. Be sure to post some pics ASAP, what colour is it ? I have the bulge but not the wing and the rear vision is not an issue for me. Side mirrors work a treat Mark
  20. I made sure I rang my local dealer and got a quote before booking the car in. 15000 service costs were $210 quoted and that is all I would pay. Cant see if someone gives you a quote how it can be dearer when you go to pick it up. Unless you are there to look over the mechanics shoulder how can any one be sure you are getting what is in the handbook where ever you take it. It does sound silly that Ford does not have a state wide costing on their services, why would it cost more in the city than the country were I live?
  21. Hey whitey Gauges look good. Did you have any probs with the hook up? You have to be carefull what you write in here as some people get offended easily.If the SS pod is all you can afford then so be it we cant all be rich fat cats. I have the exact same gauges but with a miss ally pod holder Good luck with your future mods. Mark
  22. Muzz has his BA hooked to the grey but it did nothing when I hooked my BF untill I swaped to the black. Good luck Mark
  23. Hey Muzz Good to hear you had a good time at powercruise, did anyone get any pics? Let me know when you all organise something around the local area and im there with bells on. Whitey- If you got a BA then go the grey wire but if a BF then the black wire works a treat Mark
