these questions should probably be sorted between a few threads but ive done it slack and seen if anyone

could answer all at once!!

just purchased xr6t FG 100,000km

diff bushes done at 95 and lube done at 97...

1.I feel that when I start the car the gear shift vibrates alot in nuetral, tottaly fine in gear

but vibrates quite alot in nuetral. would that be due for a change soon or just normal?

2. I also think the timing belt needs a change soon, it makes a slight noise u can hear once lifting the bonnet.

or has any one tried a home job on them?

3.does anyone know a good a mechanic for fords in melb

4. just some basic value for money upgrades , already have the cold air intake

thanks

the noise is hard to describe.. its not screetching or rattling but sort of inbetween like a whining noise...

and I heard from the were the belt is.

as far as the clutch goes im not too sure I might take to a mechanic shee what they say. or change it myself

seen some insturctions on the forum

They don't have a timing belt! It could be a idler pulley one of the other pulleys or the serpentine belt.

1. Engine probably running rough and not idling smooth could be causing gear selector to vibrate.

2. May be a Bearing

4. If you like the power as it is, just a ECU Tune will make power delivery better. If you want more power, Tune, Injectors, Highflow cat and F6 Intercooler is the best value for money
