It's important that the story of dealings like this are told so that others don't follow the same path! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously car needs to go to a reputable tuner who knows these cars Cms in Preston's or autotech in Granville!Give both a ring and I gurantee you'll be in safe hands.My white ba has over 500rwkw tunes by Cms!! Can't fault joe and the work that leaves he's shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either of those two have a awful lot more experience with the XR6T which will be needed to sort out your issues. Either will sort you out with no BS.

Also, you say it's not running correctly, detail what it is actually doing. What has been done that is so catastrophically bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixman Donating Members 600 Member For: 20y 4m 9d Gender: Male Location: Hills District, NSW Posted 30/09/14 12:31 PM Share Posted 30/09/14 12:31 PM There was another guy on here not long ago with mechanical/tune related issues driving him to despair. Everyone told him numerous times to take his car to a reputable workshop experienced with these cars. He ended up taking it to a place that offered a cheaper price and shorter timeframe. Needless to say he ended spending more money getting burned again with no real resolution of his issues.You have been given good advice by guys here, even in the last thread.Hate to see you go through more pain with this. Just sayin..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
