Ba Xr6T Running Rough- Still Slight Shudder

[nitro xr6 turbo]

auto or manual? also take the induction piping of the throttle body and make sure its reasonably clean, a dirty throttle body may well give you a bad idle. and as david has said, with falcons if you have the front end in the air and turn the wheels by hand (road wheels, not steering wheel) you get a bad steering vibration. since the vibration doesnt get worse with speed changes, check engine/gearbox mounts.

Thanks guys- I will get a genuine o2 and put that in. The throttle body I have checked and it appeared to be clean. The engine mounts have been checked- will see how I go.

Will keep you posted.

Take it to a ford dealer and say u only have enough to pay for half an hours labour to diagnose. They will find the problem straight away then you find and fit the parts yourself

thanks for your feedback.

If you take it to a mechanic tell him it needs a GENUINE ford o2 sensor in it if he is going to replace it. My mechanic put a non genuine one in and made my car run worse than it did before he changed it.

I work in a good mechanical workshop, and I have very low opinions of any dealership (ford being up there with the worst of them in my experience) but for a problem such as this I would take it to ford, unless u know a mechanic that is a guru on falcons.
