I have never had a car that did this. I sometimes do it if I'm in a rush.mate just take it to the tunehouse mate. jim will make it a better car.. GO TUNEHOUSE I SAY..

The car has been flagged for warranty issues so get a good tune and enjoy the car.My previous car had similar issues and got the air/fuel mixture changed via a tune and the fuel pump got changed. Car was BA XR6T auto with 322rwkw. This thing would stall while driving but yours sounds a bit different. Tune it and enjoy it I reckon.

And leave it there without the keys...Block access to everything... And say fix it f*ckers... Including the 'no warranty flag'... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72425-fg-f6-stalling-problem/page/2/#findComment-1067827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Member 1,869 Member For: 21y 8m 12d Gender: Male Location: Newcastle Posted 30/12/10 09:32 PM Share Posted 30/12/10 09:32 PM Darcati,I think the question you need to ask yourself is do you plan on keeping the car factory and with no modifications or do you want to mod in the future? If you aren't going to mod then take it back to Ford and stick it to them. If you plan on adding mods and making your car really amazing (hint hint) then I'd save yourself the pain and take it straight to Tunehouse. You'll drive out of there with a huge smile on your face, just experienced much better service than Ford will ever offer and never take your car back to Ford in the future.Benny Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72425-fg-f6-stalling-problem/page/2/#findComment-1067877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
