timmyb9 New Member 12 Member For: 10y 1m 26d Posted 03/09/15 04:34 AM Share Posted 03/09/15 04:34 AM Hi Everyone,I have a 2010 F6 with the 6 speed ZF auto. I have that common problem of the 'lurch' when coming to a stop (second to first gear). I have read on this forum site that there is a 'firmware' fix, however I have spoken to a local ford dealership in Sydney and they said go to ZF. So I rang ZF and they said go to ford!I am wondering if anyone has successful fixed the lurch problem with the firmware update, and if so where can I get it done? I am located in Sydney and I am happy to travel anywhere in Sydney to try and get this fixed. Thanks in advance,Tim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
