Clappa72 Inactive Members 1 Member For: 11y 8m 8d Posted 09/09/13 03:29 AM Share Posted 09/09/13 03:29 AM I got a 2011 xr6t and the boot making noise on opening has been annoying, getting fixed this month. Bigger brakes would've been nice, otherwise its a great value for money rocket.

Bloody clutch has to be let out so slowly to be smooth Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76592-known-issues-fg-xr6t/page/15/#findComment-1423029 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the rear end or more toward the front.If from rear end Seems a rear end clunk is normal on FG's as few people say they do it when letting off throttle.

BlueOvalPower Member 42 Member For: 11y 10m Gender: Male Posted 01/10/13 07:23 AM Share Posted 01/10/13 07:23 AM Did most of you wait till your warranty ran out before you modified anything? I like the idea of warranty but I could not drive a stock car for that long! My warranty was void with less then 100 km's on the clock lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76592-known-issues-fg-xr6t/page/15/#findComment-1429441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z2TT Member 714 Member For: 12y 11m 21d Posted 01/10/13 03:05 PM Share Posted 01/10/13 03:05 PM (edited) Depends on your dealer. My Dealer told me they are fine with basics like Intercooler, Tune and Injectors.and my FG even had Mods when I brought it from the dealer and they encouraged me to extend my warranty too.Also not much of a Warranty when the maximum claim is $2000 or thereabouts, what the hell is the point of that when it wont even cover a engine or transmission replacement.

All warranty claimed go through Ford HQ.. They will knock it back due to " being modified" Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76592-known-issues-fg-xr6t/page/15/#findComment-1429567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
