Hi Everyone,
New here. Looking for service info on FGX EcoLPI XR6 Ute. I've got an intermittent P0093-60 (Fuel system leak detected - large leakage). I've had the main pressure sensor replaced. Now looking at service items while I work through troubleshooting. Cheers and thanks. |

Coming from my previous tow vehicle (1999 3L Prado) it is night and day. We live on a hill, and the Prado would struggle to maintain 40kmh. Keeping the Everest in sports mode you hardly know you are towing the caravan at all , no such hill issues. Hopefully we will get out on a bit of a longer trek and see how it handles. |

Gerday Folks, had Fords all my life including a good old 1956 Zephyr. I have owned Falcons - XR XW XA XB XD XE EL and for the last 9 years a BA Futura. When I was a kid my father had an Elliot Ness style Ford before moving to Mainlines and Customlines then all the early Falcons and finally a Marquis which he reckoned was a piece of poop.
One day I might go crazy and wop a Barra into an EL --- that would have to be the best mix ever. IMHO. Happy Fording, folks. |

Gidday, I'm a ford tragic. Ever since my first, a 2lt TD Cortina wagon in garbage bin green lol I've had blue blood. I tried a couple mitsies but they just didnt do it for me. so the list of fords goes as follows -
TD Cortina 2lt wagon, Green, lowered front to improve stance, 2 inch exhaust, re-jet weber carby. Running on globeline dish mags. XH Falcon ute. Stock everything. Must have been built mid week cause it was faultless. XC Falcon sedan. bought it for its mags and extractors to go on another car, put on stock wheels and header manifold cut and polished it and flipped it for more than I paid. XW Falcon sedan. Project car that never went anywhere, ended up selling 4 years later. 1999 AU S1 XR8 ute 5Lt Auto Venom Red. Stock. another Wednesday car. Test drove several before buying this one in 2005, this one just seemed to be faster and smoother than any we tested. Sold it 2008 to buy a more practical work ute. Biggest regret ever. This was my true car love. XY GT Replica. Technically my wifes car. Electric blue. 302 c4 auto. upgraded to mild 351 clevo with FMX. Took of 5 slots and fit Bathurst Globes. Sold to build a new kitchen. It was a beast of a car but scary as all hell to drive. BA RTV Ute, column shift auto 4lt, for work. Great ute, diff lock was useful, but overall just boring. XF Falcon ute, 4lt auto. Back up work ute, staff killed it twice before I gave up saving it. 2000 Fairmont. 4Lt auto. Grandpa spec. smooth ride. Great car. 2004 LWB Transit Mid Top Van, push button auto. Best work van I've ever used. Drove it till it fell apart, motor an gearbox where still mint at 350km. Couple 2009 Ranger dual cabs for work and play. Work was an white XS and Play was an Black XLT. Both epic. Worked hard and played hard without issue. Maverick Wagon. Petrol/gas 4x4. Basically a fishing bus. It did a lot of Km's and was a lot of fun. Did heaps of maintenance work to it due to km's. Did fit extractors to fix header leak and bigger radiator with electronic fan to fix overheating issues and electronic points system to fix backfire issues on gas. All standard issues with these things. Current - 2002 AU2 XR8 Ute, 5lt auto. Artic White. Yeah baby! So far I've put on a personally made custom 2.5" twin exhaust, sounds epic. roller top tub cover for security. Compiling parts for upcoming upgrades, s3 pursuit clone. This one will never leave, no matter what my wife says........ Current - 2009 Territory - Diesel Titanium. Stock, 380,000Km's. Its the family car and it is solid as. Current - 2012 Zetec Diesel Mondeo estate. Sigh. such a nice car when it works. But what a lemon. Electrical faults one after the other. Clagged up intakes (That's a modern design fault you'll all need to face one day) and injectors, DPF sensor and injector faults, broken glow plug in the head, PCM not found, then it is, then its not, grr. This car is basically why I'm here on this forum, I need the help of the Ford clan. |

Thanks for letting join.
Hi fellow Rangers, Running a 2014 PX Ranger 2.2 ltr. Picked her up for 8 gs, replaced the auto with a second handy all going well so far other than it makes a low Growling noise when it changes throught the gears. One other issue is that it changes between 3rd and 4th rather quick. Re did the adaptions, TCM reset PCM reset etc. Any thoughts?. |

Hi All,
Good to be here there have been some handy threads on this forum, so I thought to give it a crack too. I do have an agenda...the wife's 2009 LV Focus Manual ( 2ltr) needed a new clutch. Just changed clutch disc, pressure plate and slave cylinder. Took it for a test run yesterday and the gears are whining 1st through 5th then also same on the decelerate. New gearbox oil is tip - top it took approx 1.9lts Pentite Semi Synth 75W 90. Got me stumped right now...thoughts anyone? |

Howdy Members. I have a 1987 Ford Fairlane Sportsman Model. Anyone out there can give me advice. Do I put a genuine bonnet emblem on or leave it off. Thanks

Thanks 23Shelby. I have a white over grey ZL 87 Sportsman with the bonnet emblem. But just about to buy a silver over grey ZL 87 Sportsman that does not have the bonnet emblem. Cant wait to get this beauty home, its only done 101,000 kms (3 owners, all books).

No, only a 6 cylinder. EFI 4.1. But still a nice cruiser. Looking forward to driving a vehicle with rear wheel drive again. 😉

Hi all,
My name is Jon, I'm 51 and I'm in a relationship but looking for more...I have promised to give my partner more love (she's a 97 model and her initials are XH) but its a bit of a predicament...I have a bit of a wandering eye and I seem to always be looking for/at other nice models not that I would ever part ways with my 97 gal but two is better than one! I like long drives by the beach and into the sunset but even a short trip into town makes me happy. cheers Jon *may the Ford be with you* |

Hi Everyone,
My name is Alex. I've owned 3 Holdens (HG, HQ, & HX), a Mini Panel Van with a fibreglass front end, and 2 motorbikes before I bought my first Ford (XE). The XE lasted longer and put up with more punishment than all the previous vehicles combined. Was truly the love of my life. Sadly sold the XE when the family out grew it (4 kids). But I loved that car. It had the 4.1L cross flow alloy head and I put some extractors on it. Lowered the suspension. Changed the steering column from XE to XF. Sports wood-grain steering wheel. Swapped out the 4 spd manual for a T5. Put a disc brake rear end in it and a sound system that would rattle the neighbours windows. The XE was an all-round vehicle; daily commuter, rally car, street racer, 4wd. It was almost indestructible except for those damn external door handles. I always kept a couple of spares lol... Eventually it ran out of compression and I replaced the engine with one from an XF. Currently driving a 2003 BA Fairmont Ghia 4.0 Barra 4 spd trans and it appears to be the bain of my existence. It seems like just as soon as we fix one thing, something else needs attention. Sad because it's a great car, comfortable, quick, handles great, comes with all the mod cons (except bluetooth, but who cares right...). Anyway, thanks for allowing me to join the forum Cheers ![]() |

Hi from Scotland. Recently bought a hearse to turn into a camper van and for some reason the company that built it imported a bunch of BF falcons into the UK to convert into hearses. Car had some issues with it when I bought it (TPS, intake manifold gasket, throttle gasket all knackered), I've dealt with those and now am chasing other issues with it, but this forum's previous posts have been really helpful with fixing it up, so thought I'd join and say hi.

Hi ya all. I own a 2003 BA falcon Fairmont Ghia, had the steering hose and alternator replaced and love the car but there's a slight whirring sound most noticeable at idle which leads me to suspect the aircon compressor is getting tired. I want to keep ontop of things before they get worse so am always open to suggestions. Thanks.

Hey All,
New to this particular forum, but a regular on FB and others. I've had a series of Fords over the years: EB EF Transit (some year - was owned by the company, so can't remember the model, but was ooooold!) And finally.... My 2019 Transit Custom Vehicle has been essentially flawless, other than the stock Ford Sync 2.5 radio being absolute garbage, crashing, not connecting - so out it went, and I replaced it with an 11" Alpine last year. Its been flawless ever since. Currently in for warranty repairs, so seeking some independent advice rather urgently. |

Hello All,
Firstly thank you for adding me to the forum. Second, we have owned a number of later Fords (FG XR6, 2016 Ranger, 2019 Ranger, 2021 Ranger and 2021 Raptor) and cant speak highly enough of them. Many (150K+ kms for the older ones) and trouble free motoring. Recently I purchased a 2009 SY2 Territory as bit of a project and for the daughter but unfortunately it would cost more than I paid for it to get it roadworthy so I have decided to keep it for a property vehicle and do some mods to it. Anyway G'Day all Thanks Adam |
