Hi guys, So loving my New/old G6E Turbo. Been doing it heaps, forgot how much I missed Boost lol. However I have noticed something weird. My temp gauge never seems to reach half way on the gauge typically just 1/4 to 3/8. I live in QLD I know its a bit cooler at the moment but every car I have ever driven will always get to temp being half way on the gauge? Is this a normal thing? or would it be a faulty gauge? I have heard people mention something about a cold thermostat? is that a thing that would cause this? any help would be geat thanks guys Ben

Hi there forum people. I have asked this question before and did not seem to get far so I have decided to give it a go again..... my fg mk1 xr6t has a habit, no it's not a habit, it does this all the time of rev hunting when cold. its when you have started up, got onto the open road ( I live in the country) and you are cruising along at 1500rpm on a steady throttle and it starts rev hunting up and down about 500 rpm judging by what the tachometer says and it's also accompanied by an intense vibration when it drops into top gear. only when cold, never when warmed up. the other issue I have is how do you get decent cold air out of the A/C? jesus it's pathetic. the temperature sensor seems to be fairly accurate, I'm starting to think the compressor is not big enough. Any ideas anyone? Cheers Lewis

Hi guys first time poster... Have a ba xr6 turbo '05 When car is still cold, I get a ticking noise coming from my turbo (I think). Once car is warm, it disappears. I researched this and thought it was loose bolts on the turbo- checked but found nothing. Was hopin some one could describe which bolts they are, or if that even is the problem. I am also havin a boost problem. Turbo is going, but not getting the power I thought I would. Had a mate take it for a spin and said feels like I'm getting no boost at all. Would appreciate some good advice Thanks guys
