Grinding / Clunking Sound When Braking & Reverse
ToXic BF Beast posted a topic in Driveline Workshop
Hi guys I have this grinding / clunking sound that happens when I'm coming to a complete stop such as traffic lights / driveways / 3 pt turns.. It ONLY grinds & vibrates right as I'm about to stop,, so the last half a metre or so. (It's even louder in reverse) As soon as I accelerate It goes away & I don't hear it again until I come to another stop. If I brake quite hard or fast, it doesn't make the noise... -no warning lights are displayed - I ran a faults check with TORQUE + OBD2 scanner but only returned a "P1000 powertrain error".... Which apparently is normal for some fords????? My apologies if this has been answered, I'm a newb. I read all similar Q's on this forum but I got 48 diff theories which confused me more than I already am. I will post a link to the vid I just recorded, so u can hear for yourself. Or YouTube 'BF Xr6t grinding noise' Please help falcon dudes! -
I recently brought a xr6t ute 2007, when driving down the road about 5 ks the ABS & traction control lights come on the dash & wont go off until I turn the engine off. When I start the car back up the lights stay off. Any ideas to what this could be, how do I solve the problem?

Wasn't really sure where to post this so thought id start here, I'm having problems with my traction control, car isn't tuned and it's a bf mk2 xr6 turbo After driving for about 5 minutes the traction control light comes on and when I press the button it won't go away, only goes away when I shut the car off. It also when going around a left hand bend feels like the abs/ traction control is kicking in and the front end starts shuddering and wanting to brake and the traction control light start flashing but after about 5 seconds it goes away. Iv cleaned all abs sensors and scanned it with just a obd2 scanner and nothing has changed. It's happened ever since iv had my car (3 months) so it's nothing that I have changed on it that has made it do it, any help is much appreciated

Serviced the ute today & F ME! the oil that was in that thing was f*ckED! completely shot, non service my ass! Anyways, nice clean fresh fluid & a filter later the thing drives beaut. One minor issue, I have a TC light illuminated but no DTC's recorded?? Never had an issue with the light the first 2 times the car was driven but with it showing up, I'm a little wary. First time I noticed the light I turned the car on & off and it fixed it. Second time it was started it stayed off as well. Third time it came on & I drove it home. Thing is, I have this cheapy OBD2 recorder unit from ebay which is fantastic, I'd left it in the port & drove it. I'm wondering if that COULD have been the issue. Other thing is if there is some sort error code I'm not seeing ? To top that off can someone confirm the fill procedure for me? I was under the assumption that you; top it up till it runs out the hole > start > run through gears > top up till dripping again > once hot put in park & shut off > reapply plug However, when I did this as soon as the engine was off oil was PISSING out at quite a rate making me think I've over filled so is the procedure the following instead? top it up till it runs out the hole > start > run through gears > once hot put in park & shut off > reapply plug Any answers would be awesome, thanks guys -
