Lj78 Member 7 Member For: 16y 6d Posted 16/01/09 06:23 AM Share Posted 16/01/09 06:23 AM Hi I am new to this. I bought a new Xr6 turbo fg. When the engine is cold and I take off slowly the taco jumps and you can also feel it, it is like it is missing. I took it in to the ford dealer and they said all ford xr6 turbos do it. Is this true or have I bought a lemmon and they dont want to fix it. Thanks for your time. Lj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like a miss, but when I accelerate it's fine. Only lasts for a few seconds. I'll be getting it checked in the 3000 service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BA-PHOON Member 67 Member For: 20y 30d Posted 18/01/09 01:44 AM Share Posted 18/01/09 01:44 AM G'day Lj,...does it idle smoothly if you don't drive it straight away after starting? My F6 suffered from a rough idle problem that caused the engine revs to be erratic for about 30-40 seconds after initial start-up when the engine was cold. Turned out to be the O2 sensor which had failed (wouldn't work properly until warm or something like that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
