Dear All,

I'm a newbie to the forum and a new Typoon owner too and gotta say, it's good feel part of this collective! I've had 6 fords in the past and traded a BF XR6 for the F6. It's Mar 08 reg, ZF box, stock at the moment, but that could change later on. I'm just up to 1,800 km's, the engine still feels quite tight - not that I'm complaining! I'm probably a month or so away from the 3,000 km service and I'd be interested to know what 'really' needs to be ticked off the list to ensure all is good. I've heard that the oil pressure needs testing, manifold nuts need tightening, diff oil, replace engine oil as examples. Any other things that anyone could suggest would be most appreciative.

Also, I live close to NewOak Ford and I believe they also have a sevice dept in Caulfield. Does anyone have any feedback on them at all?

Thanks and cheers,

Dave

Hey Gentlemen... and ladies

I just have to say I feel like my life hadn't been complete until now!

having driven and owned a lot of performance cars over the last 10 years, I didnt know what I was missing out on until now!

Just picked up myself a 2006 BF Typhoon, in Ego.

Totally Stock, 6 speed auto...... oh, and close to bald tyres (new ones being fitted today).

picked her up on wednesday, roads pretty wet, traction control on, and still manages to break traction at over 80kms haha! fun fun fun!

but seriously, the car feels amazing to drive. excellent smooth power delivery, beautifully fast gear changes, superb handling for such a big car! love it!

ill be doing a few enhancements here and there, nothing over the top.

I will definitely post some pictures...as soon as the freaking rain stops!

Is it an ex-cop car? Congrats on the ride.
