Another New G6Et Member

I reckon ford oz made a mistake in naming the G6E TURBO,it should be G SICK E TURBO or G SILK E TURBO,lol......congrats to all owners,an excellent choice.......

I’ve only had the G6ET for a few months now and a few things now that I am starting to notice are,

1,There seems to be a noise in the rear parcel shelf,

2,It feels to have suspension movement (under low speed around corners) and a light noise.

3,when its cold, (just started up) and I move it out of the shed so it can warm up outside, it runs like it has a stage 5 cam shaft, but once its warm, its fine (only when I have it in gear it runs bad).

4,In the last week, there is another noise that I am starting to here, and it seems be coming from the diff area, again only at slow speeds and either moving backward or forwards.

Its due for its 7500ks service now so I will bring all the issues up with them and see what they will do,

Just wondering if anyone else has had these issues.

I've put 30000k's on mine now and the worst problem I've had was a sqeaky seat which was fixed with some lubricant... Good luck with the new car they are great.

Have you had your since NEW,

And have you had any mods done?

New diff oil usually cures a noisy diff. Have a diff check at its next service at least.

Well,Just had the 7500ks service and they found that there where no issues with the car that I reported,they just said to keep an eye on things,as they use to say in my last job,just let it develope

Not good. Only noise in mine so far is a very slight rattle in the rear passenger side speaker...must be from pumping too much Barry Manilow through it :locked:

That's at about 22k I think it is

[Cabbie]

I think that they may think that I am having a moment.

I might have to slow up a bit and start wearing my fluffy feet and ear warmers,yer,and just chill out.

I could be highly strunge,could be in the home soonier rather :locked: then later.

Got any pics of your cab with the new springs fitted?

How is the ride compared to stock?
