Dave Franklin Member 3 Member For: 15y 2m 1d Posted 14/01/10 05:12 AM Share Posted 14/01/10 05:12 AM Hi Fellow XR6T, I've had my used 2008 FG XR6T for a couple of months now and I've noticed that when the car interior is hot after being parked my mono lcd screen looks smudged (for want of a better description). The display returns to normal after a while when the interior cools down. Has anyone noticed this also (or am I just lucky). Anyway, I intend bringing this up with the Ford greasemonkeys at it's 45,000k service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the press vehicle for a while; it did it too. and changed to FPV gauges and it still does it..I'd say they all do it... I think most LCD screens do..

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 16/01/10 01:16 AM Share Posted 16/01/10 01:16 AM Mine sucks.When I first start it up, the background is a nice white with the blue writiing and borders. but after about ten minutes driving the bloody background is green, like someone turned the lights off and no matter how much I turn up the contrast or brightness it makes no diff.Group buy premium ICC ???Two grand for a cheap color screen is too much.If you upgrade your ICC to premium, what else comes with it??? dual zone ??? better pickups for the CD? anything besides a screen. I can buy a LCD as big as my wall these days for two grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what happens when you don;t check in often. Glad to know I'm not the only one. Anyway ... Problem solved though. Upgraded to a FG Mk2 XR6T with a 8" colour phat screen. Very nice.........
