Hey guys.

I just bought an N/A fg xr6 in ego. 6 speed auto. It was used, 50,000 on the clock for $23,000, pretty stoked!

Just have a quick couple of questions about things I have noticed so far!

1. I currently have the standard ICC. When I am in auxiliary mode, with my iPod connected, the lower part of the screen flickers. It's nothing huge, but constant while it is on this mode. Is this normal?

2. Also, the outside temp gauge is way off. Reading the manual it suggests that it is an approximation only, but the difference is like, on a 30 degree day, it will display around 10 degrees. Is there anything I can do to fix this at all?

Any help would be appreciated!

PS. I upgraded from a VP commodore, quite an upgrade I think!

1. NO. Could be the plug at the Ipod end. They break. Make sure its all clipped together properly.

2. Ambient temp sensor in the left hand mirror. Happens to all of them

Both should be fixed under warranty

I find the outside temp is within about 2 degrees of the actual, which is not bad. Remember you have to have air travelling over the sensor (car moving) to get the most accuratre temp reading. It also takes a couple of minutes to stabilise.
