I use to have a Expensive Daewoo ute and it had drama after drama, yet my mate had same ute with nothing. Now I own a fg done 4500km and no dramas yet, so its a plus so far for me Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51311-fg-turbo-problems/page/2/#findComment-762682 Share on other sites More sharing options...
